[Lyric] Two dogs (TOM (emcee from Australia))

Dad’s blood on some second-hand shoes
Hands covered in addictions that ran blue
Until i broke the little finger and the man spilled
Sat at the front of the funeral, got too used to the back of the bus
Anxious as fuck, tears rolling down the face of my mum
Made it a month out before i inhaled to run
Couldn’t handle these dreams that he was invading and clutching my throat
Closest we’ve been was when he was unconscious with a couple hours left in his heart
Playing fetch in the yard
Two dogs just placing bets with our gods
There’s no forgetting my scars, there’s no forgiveness in death, not when your fingers are bent
Not when your limits are tested
Not when the caskets infront of me screaming “give me a second”
I barely limped through the pressure
It isn’t shit i inherented except addictions and a twisted picture of what marriage is
So may i live to tell my kids i’m nothing like their grandpa was
Yeah i’m pissed because when you passed i didn’t get one hug
Holding your limp hand, knowing it’s the last time i ever would
Almost ever song was in your name and now you left for good
Now your blood is on my second hand shoes
My hands covered in addictions that ran blue
But i broke my metacarpal now i’m singing songs of death to bring along my debt
When everything i wanted left
I know my ex is listening like what the fuck happened to him
The second you call it quits with me i’m writing 'fuck' in my raps again
Trust it’s got less to do with you than the fact my dad is dead
Or maybe it’s the combination of the two tragic events
Landing head first into the new year
High and mid-spiral so i couldn’t give two shits
I admit it’s my fault that you left
I’m speaking to both of you in that dumb line
And when i go, my mum will blame herself, it’s in our bloodline
