Lyrics

When mama was my age, her home became just a house
She learned from her parents
There's stains you inherit, you can't wash out
Look in the mirror, see her reflection
It's getting clearer that I'm no exception
To the family tradition, of tears in the kitchen
Emotional hand-me-downs
Guess I got blue genes
Passed down from mama and her mama too
Can't just get new genes
Can't just change out of the pair I was born into
The rips in the seams show we go through the pain
And the holes in the knees mean we know how to pray
Used to wanna grow out of
But now I'm just proud of these
Blue genes
Scared me at first thinking hurting' could run in my blood
I cry in the movies and let people use me
Cuz I feel too much
I'm realizing the older I get
There's no pointing fighting
Or running from it
I'd rather feel too much
Than start to go numb
Thank God for the woman that I got it from
Yeah I got blue genes
Passed down from mama and her mama too
Can't just get new genes
Can't just change out of the pair I was born into
The rips in the seams show we go through the pain
And the holes in the knees mean we know how to pray
Used to wanna grow out of
But now I'm just proud of these
Blue genes
I can walk through the mud
I bet these jeans have seen something harder
They won't tear, they won't fade
At the end of the day, they're my armor
Yeah I got blue genes
Passed down from mama and her mama too
I don't want new genes
Can't just change out of (the pair) i was born into
The rips in the seams show we go through the pain
And the holes in the knees mean we know how to pray
Used to wanna grow out of
But now I'm just proud of these
Blue genes
