[Verse 1]
Rhonda cleaned the floors
Four kids she bore
Sweet as candy rain
Ain't had to work no days
Paid with her fears
But every bill got paid
Even beauty fades away
[Chorus]
It's the bloodline
This thing came before you
Bloodline
[Verse 2]
Silver linings live in clouds
Just like demons use the clouds
Both rights can bestow
Truth is, you are always alone
Tears in your hands
Things you lost before you began
Your ancestors' blood felt the soil and sand
[Chorus]
Mmm, bloodline
This thing came before you
Bloodline
[Verse 3]
Speak bravely
Speak truly
Do it with all of your heart
Speak freely
Choose wisely
Those below are not who you are
Keep rising, keep shining
'Til the ocean meets the stars
[Chorus]
Mmm, bloodline
Don't let it destroy you, no
Bloodline
