You reap what they sow
A see from a tree you never chose
Rotting in the fruits of their labors
Stumbling in your fathers' footsteps
Because its all you know
As long as you live
Under their roof
Groping ignorant in the shadows of family legacy limelight
Stunted beneath the 'shelter' of the carefully crafted canopy
Growing dwarfed and gnarled
But growing still
Still, eyes shine in the dark
Still, bruises blossom from the flesh
The seeds and the soil will tell
When you spill your own seed
Nip the young buds
And throw your apples as far away as you can
