Family Portrait Lyrics & Video

Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh

Momma please stop cryin, I cant stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didnt mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It aint easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, youll see
I dont want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise Ill be better, Mommy Ill do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise Ill be better, Daddy pleas
e dont
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I cant stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Dont wanna go back to that place, but dont have
no choice, no way
It aint easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen
I dont want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise Ill be better, Mommy Ill do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise Ill be better, Daddy please dont
leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Lets play pretend, let's act like it comes
naturally
I dont wanna have to split the holidays
I dont want two addresses
I dont want a step-brother anyways
And I dont want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise Ill be better, Mommy Ill do
anything)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let's play pretend act and like it comes so
naturally
(I promise Ill be better, Daddy please don't
leave)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise Ill be better, Daddy please don't
leave)

Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my
shining star?
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Don't leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
Ill be so much better, Ill tell my brother
Oh, I wont spill the milk at dinner
Ill be so much better, Ill do everything right
Ill be your little girl forever
Ill go to sleep at night
