Defying Odds

A family tree of unemployment
A family tree of 
disability
A family tree of 
bad credit
A family tree of 
high interest paid
A family tree of 
we own nothing 
A family tree of 
alcoholism 
A family tree of 
drug abuse 
A family tree of 
mental disorders 
A family tree of 
grief
A family tree of 
divorces 
A family tree of 
endless debt 

I'm just trying
to be a black sheep 
and defy all odds
Regardless the roots 
or branches I came from
