[Verse] Born in the shadow, where the sins cast taller, Passed down scars, every slap makes 'em holler. Pops yelled, moms cried, cycle kept spinnin', Eve bit the fruit, now look what we winnin'. [Verse] Hands that should heal now mirror the blows, Lessons learned wrong, in the dirt love grows. Instinct to snap, just a mirror of the past, Echoes of Eden, the fruit's bite still lasts. (vocal chorus) [Chorus] Snake in the garden, venom in the veins, Hearts grow colder while repeating the chains. Hurting each other, reflex to react, Generations cursed, can’t take the pain back. [Verse] Got the fig leaves, don’t cover the shame, Blame Adam, blame Eve, but we hold the flame. Taught our kids to love with a fist or a yell, Built a crooked world, made our own little hell. [Verse] Hands that should heal now mirror the blows, Lessons learned wrong, in the dirt love grows. Instinct to snap, just a mirror of the past, Echoes of Eden, the fruit's bite still lasts. [vocal chorus] [Bridge] Cain's murmur whispered when he carved that fall, Bruises don't heal when we rewrite the call. No devil needed, we the architects of scars, Abusing our kin beneath burned-out stars. (angelic backing vocals) [Chorus] Snake in the garden, venom in the veins, Hearts grow colder while repeating the chains. Hurting each other, reflex to react, Generations cursed, can’t take the pain back. [Verse] Generational curses, packed tight in suitcases, Passed down like heirlooms, bitter truths laced in faces, Echoes from Eden, forbidden apples they tasted, Now we biting blindly, consequences misplaced in. [Bridge] Hurt givin' hurt, we don't mean, it's a reflex, Trauma on repeat, rewound, no eject, Born into the pattern, tangled up in defects, Breaking chains feels impossible, what’s the pretext? [aaaaaaah-uuuuuuuh-uuuuuuh] [Chorus] Snake in the garden, venom in the veins, Hearts grow colder while repeating the chains. Hurting each other, reflex to react, Generations cursed, can’t take the pain back. Snake in the garden, venom in the veins, Hearts grow colder while repeating the chains. Hurting each other, reflex to react, Generations cursed, can’t take the pain back.
