[Verse 1: Endeavor (Mac Ro)]
All my life I've tried to be the best
Safe to say I'm blinded by success
Always stressed and causing all the mess
Even put my children through the test
But I must confess I gotta make some changes
Hurt my family, saving all these strangers
Tables turned, now I'm the one in danger
Learn control to channel all your anger

[Verse 2: Todoroki (Mark Cooper)]
Uh, defying the odds, see the collage of hypothetical nods
Never Endeavor to be a father, knowing that was just a mirage
Pish posh the pasade, I benefited my rise
I do it for mother and sister now, brother the others compare to collide
I'm slip sliding, no freeze tag
My flow's cold cause I breathe that
Reason why I leave the heat back
They catch freezer burn from that contact
So I'm on that
Fifty fifty with the contract
Icy hot with that combat
When that time lapse I know now you ain't coming back

[Chorus: Mac Ro]
Dealing with these family matters
Number one hero
Dealing with these family matters
Why you think I'm so cold
Dealing with these family matters
I swear I'll never let it go
Dealing with these family matters
[Verse 3: Endeavor (Mac Ro)]
Making up for my past mistakes, yeah
Doesn't matter how long it takes, nah
Hard to look my family in the face
I'm fallen from grace, now I'm number one to hate
Tried to control your fate and I made things worse
Like an evil scientist, how I'm developing quirks
Ended up a zero on my way to be first, a gift and a curse
Now they run my name through the dirt, ah

[Verse 4: Dabi (Zach B)]
Fit for the task, I'm glad I could never go back
Zero trust and got a couple issues, they know I was left in the past
And I would try and try again, never saw an end, it was all that I had
And these emotions really got the best of me, so tell me, you proud of me, dad?
Was dedicated, always do as I'm told, concentrated on pursuing my goal
Felt this hatred, always used to take it, now look how I'm changing from the ones I loved most
I know exactly what I can be, don't want you calling me family
I get it, was never the one that they wanted, but act like they all understand me, I need a plan B
You don't know half of the things that I've seen, it was too much when they asked me to leave
Just make another, barely had a mother and left with a fraction of hero in me
That's what I got, broke every piece and now that I'm not who they want me to be
I wasn't perfect, but that was the key to your heart, I couldn't avoid it with ease

[Verse 5: Endeavor (Mac Ro)]
I know sorry means nothing, past the point of discussion
Look myself in the mirror and who I see is disgusting
I just want to be better, please, don't hate me forever
I think I finally get it, I'm on a different Endeavor
