All in the Family - Dan Bull

The trials of a father

Feels like however hard I try

I’ve got try a little harder

The sword and the shield

Of my family line

And when I’m not out in the field

Spend my quality time with them

Every Bergson’s an individual person

Yet a variation on a theme

A different version

A remix of the seeds

Which made us

Each unique

Yet related by the flavours

These traits are hereditary

So they’ll be replayed

When I’m dead and buried

By those tending to my grave

In the cemetery

Family’s placed first

The rest of my world is secondary

To keep them safe

I’ll do whatever is necessary

Ever ready to step in

And settle any inequity

If you mess with any

Of my flipmode family

I’ll remedy the wrong

With a swift blow

That’ll be that

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… With me…

In the family

What good’s a man without a family

What good’s a family that’s not at peace

The trials of a father

Trying to hold a family together

And prevent it being devoured

By the darkness

It doesn’t matter to me

How big is the hardship

Could never abandon them

Because that’d be heartless

They’re a tapestry

That I’ll forever be a part of

Before I let them come to harm

I’d have to be a carcass

Insurmountable

The harvests it brings

Are bountiful

Why would you doubt

Even kings are bound to fall

Our patriarch’s here to sing

From the mountain

Until the mountain shakes

Shaking the mountain

Until the mountain aches

'Till the mountain quakes

And the mountain breaks

And the mountain breaks

And the mountain breaks

And the mountain breaks

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… With me…

In the family

What good’s a man without a family

What good’s a family that’s not at peace

The trials of a father

I live for the my loved ones

And if I die

I’ll die a little martyr

Down by the water

Another mortal

Drowned in the valley

Of the mountain Morta

Mother’s more

Than just the warden of the kitchen

She’s warding off disorder

Reinforcing others' kinship

We’re organs in a system

If any one of us is in need

We’re all giving assistance

Whether father

Brother

Mother

Daughter

Son

Or Sister

There’s a war to win

There’s nothing more important than it

Is there?

So when the mountain breaks

I’ll be down in the caves

Swing blades all around

In the faces of thousands invading

Stave the corruption

For the sake of my loved ones

Swear down

If you even want to touch them

Then I’ll slay for my loved ones

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… With me…

In the family

What good’s a man without a family

What good’s a family that’s not at peace

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… Tree

I keep it all in the family… With me…

In the family
