Lyrics from Live Performance & TikTok Snippet
[Verse 1: Alex Warren]
Take that pain, pass it down, hang photos on the wall
Momma said, "Your dad's to blame, but that's his Daddy's fault"
Oh-oh, there's no one left to call
You say you're counting down the days 'til you make your escape
But you're afraid you can't outrun what's running through your veins
Oh-oh, you're carrying the weight
[Pre-Chorus: Alex Warren]
In the dead of night, on that broken road
I won't let you walk alone
[Chorus: Alex Warren & Jelly Roll]
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
Oh, we got each other
And, if you got tomorrow, then you still got time
To break the chain that left you scarred
From where you came isn't who you are
Oh, my brothеr
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
[Verse 2: Jelly Roll, Alex Warren]
Oh, I won't pretеnd that I know half the hell you see (Yeah)
Just know that don't mean there's something near death to repeat
Oh-oh, you're stronger than you think
I know it has to end, but don't it have to start?
You can pack your bags, and I'll meet you in your car
Oh-oh, stronger than you think
[Pre-Chorus: Alex Warren & Jelly Roll, Jelly Roll]
In the dead of night, on that broken road
I won't let you walk alone
[Chorus: Alex Warren & Jelly Roll]
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
Oh, we got each other
And, if you got tomorrow, then you still got time
To break the chain that left you scarred
From where you came isn't who you are
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
[Bridge: Alex Warren, Jelly Roll, Alex Warren & Jelly Roll]
The storm keeps on raging, but don't you forget
God's not done with you yet
It feels like you're losing that war in your head
Just know this isn't the end
[Chorus: Alex Warren & Jelly Roll, Alex Warren & Jelly Roll]
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline (In your bloodline)
Oh, we got each other
And, if you got tomorrow, then you still got time (You still got time)
To break the chain that left you scarred
From where you came isn't who you are
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
