Zach Mitchell Poet Lyric

Flesh and Blood

Flesh and Blood
Dedicated to my brother Nick 

I’m sick of the games you play
Being selfish in every way
So easy for you to point the blame
Never the one to take the shame 

This is my flesh and blood 
And I’m gonna save him from your flood
I’ll carry him through the end 
If that’s what it takes
To watch his broken heart mend 

Through the years 
My brother had to bottle up the tears 
Rejected because he was different from the rest 
Set up to fail every single test 

This is my flesh and blood 
And I’m gonna save him from your flood
I’ll carry him through the end 
If that’s what it takes
To watch his broken heart mend

You, You hypocrite! 
You’re just a fake 
I’m gonna laugh when this is thrown back in your face
I dare you to give him your best shot 
Because I’m gonna be there to give you all that I got 
Everyone is shoving him to curb
So I’m gonna give you what you deserve 

This is my flesh and blood 
And I’m gonna save him from your flood
I’ll carry him through the end 
If that’s what it takes
To watch his broken heart mend
