[00:04.98]They give him prescriptions, they shine bright lights on him. [00:07.87]They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it, [00:11.65]but sometimes you're born with it. [00:13.11]My friend gets frights [00:13.95]he gets shakes in the night and they say that there's no way [00:16.55]that they could have caught it in time takes its toll on him. [00:19.26]It is traditional. [00:20.40]It is inherited. [00:21.54]Predispositional. [00:22.71](All) day I've been wondering what is inside of me, who can I blame for it? [00:26.81]I say it runs in the family. [00:28.41] [00:28.60]This family that carries me to such great lengths to open my legs up [00:31.26]to anyone who'll have me. It runs in the family, I come by it honestly, [00:36.12]do what you want 'cause who knows it might fill me up.

[00:48.56] [00:48.73]My friend's depressed, she's a wreck, she's a mess. [00:50.37]They've done all sorts of tests and they guess [00:52.63]it has something to do with her grandmother's grandfather's grandmother's [00:56.11]civil war soldiers who probably infected her. [00:57.81]My friend has validation in some allergies that she dates back to the 17th century. [01:02.40]Somehow she manages in her misery. [01:05.02]Strips in the city and shares all her best tricks with me [01:08.78]well, I'm well well I mean I'm in hell well I still have my health at least [01:11.38]that's what they tell me. [01:13.50]If wellness is this what in hell's name is sickness? [01:16.11]But business is business and business runs in the family. [01:19.13] [01:19.30]We tend to bruise easily. [01:20.63]Mad in the . [01:21.90]I'm telling you 'cause I just want you to know me, know me and my family. [01:25.90]We're wonderful folks, but don't get too close to me 'cause you might knock me up.

[01:39.76] [01:39.95]Mary have mercy, now look what I've done, but don't blame me [01:42.81]because I can't help where I come from. [01:44.90]And running is something that we've always done well and mostly [01:47.84]I can't even tell what I'm running from. [01:49.93]Run from their pity, from responsibility. [01:52.07]Run from the country and run from the city. [01:54.57](I) can run from the law, I can run from myself. [01:56.91]I can run from my life, I can run into debt. [01:59.34]I can run from it all, I can run til I'm gone. [02:01.93]I can run for the office and run for the cause. [02:04.46]I can run using every last ounce of energy. [02:06.59]I cannot, I cannot, I cannot run from my family. [02:09.69] [02:09.94]They're hiding inside of me. [02:12.10]Don't change my life. [02:13.06]Help me if you might but just don't tell my family. [02:15.60]They'd never forgive me. [02:17.47]They'd say that I'm crazy. [02:18.89]But they would say anything if it would shut me up, shut me up, shut me up, [02:31.34]me up [02:31.89]me up [02:32.62]me up [02:33.35]me up [02:34.01]me up [02:34.89]shut me up [02:35.94]me up [02:37.14]me up [02:37.95]me up [02:38.74]me up [02:39.28]me up [02:39.91]me up [02:40.50]me up.
