The eldest daughter, Lookin for a cowboy down South a soul so cold, From the North She’ll never find what she’s lookin for (the ice, the snow) Temps below (zero) Oh, it’ll warm me up feelin’ like a Carolina sun (Drive me far away) Truth hits different When triangles aren’t barking over you (you) She found her worth Till they lasted a year until divorce All the “I do’s” survived her one wish (one wish) It was for me and my boy to not get invited You don’t find a husband in church while you’re all cheating (What do you believe in?) Ya, That wasn’t my mama’s decisions That’s a choice driven (driven) by dreams, to never have a twin [808 cuts briefly] Sink the ship, I’m sick of it [Beat returns, darker and heavier] [Verse 2 — Bitter, rhythmic ambient guitar beat, distorted vocal doubles] Keep score before you lose the whole board A Thanksgiving getaway and reunions galore Like spewing poison to my face, woah, a snake Instant threats when that picture was put to my face as soon as the bags were dropped at the door There she is, dressed in white, my niece by her side Tossing magnolias to the floor down the isle (Think of us) All jokes aside, questions about dad, she said “you mean mine?” (Mine) my D.N.A. Isn’t even mine (mine) to have (to have) So Little girl Go (go) avoid it when confronted Then you’re busy when you decline Invites to hang Go on, proceed to tell ‘em all how i’m the villian (the villian) My history is good to trick ‘em (trick ‘em) Erase the conversation (erase it) where you had every chance to be included, you refused it (refused it) [short instrumental] Take your “I’ll never gonna leave you” bullshit at the gates (I’m never gonna leave you now) You didn’t get God, just forgot how to make amends Step on me (all the way) down (down) to get a winning place You’re moody, that’s why mom’s choosy Ready for my note? It’s “Hey sis, YOU WIN! Stop crying your heart out now that I’m not in it A competition YOU made up in YOUR MIND is over now. (Now) Respectfully, God knows I’m done with the games, Fuck my identity You were first, you’re the dream Here’s your trophy” [Instrumental — faint guitar continues, distorted ghostly vocals] Here’s your trophy [Verse 3 — Dark, intimate vocal; heavy 808 returns gradually] As my blood splatters like peace, once and for all, (My body is yours) After all (After all) Down a marble wall Bad taste—you crave my thirst She’s still crying over liquid gold, A couple drips of spilled milk, wow, how bold Who taught the family tree to grow its roots around a lie? Who gets to write the story, and who gets crucified? I’m more flight than fight Don’t act like this was ever a fucking surprise So How’s that inheritance gonna feel when you’ll get all of mine? [Final section — heaviest 808s, distorted bass slides, sparse aggressive trap drums] Two graves, one gun— Fuck you, you won keep the final word, Frame it and put it on your fridge Keep my boy out of it [Beat strips back — dry, close-mic vocal] Same blood, same bitch Same blood, same itch Same blood, same itch [Outro — abrupt beat cut, faint acoustic guitar decays into silence]
