0:00 🎤 Lyrics | Abby Powledge - generations in the making
0:21 Verse 1
Thought I'd become a better bolder version of myself
The second that I started packing bags for Nashville
But I hope I never change, oh I’m still a little girl
With messy curls, messy curls
Thought moving out would drown it out if I had some distance
From the weight of all the doubt and always feeling unwanted
But I hope I never change, oh I’ll keep shutting it out
Remind myself, remind myself
1:01 Chorus
That I’m a reincarnate of my mothers beauty
And every other woman come before me
If my parents and grandparents were adored
Then somebody has loved my face before
1:26 Verse 2
I’m more than teenage boys and all the noise I let them have
I’m less spoken than my mom’s side but I’m louder than my dads
I’m a product of it all, oh it’s all ancestral
As I recall, I recall
1:46 Chorus
That I’m a reincarnate of my mothers beauty
And every other woman come before me
If my parents and grandparents were adored
Then somebody has loved my face before
2:09 Verse 3
I’ll trace my imperfections in the mirror
Forgetting the sole reason why I’m here
2:18 Post-Chorus
And if all my features took centuries of shaping
Then I was generations in the making
I was generations in the making
All my features took centuries of shaping
I was generations in the making
2:46 Bridge
I have my fathers eyes and my grandmothers curls
My mother looked just like me when she was a teenage girl
And I’m sure that I’ll love someday, cause it’s somehow guaranteed
As my predecessors found their paths in love before me
3:07 Chorus
I’m a reincarnate of my mothers beauty
And every other woman come before me
If my parents and grandparents were adored
Then somebody has loved my face before
3:29 Verse 4
I’m living proof of other people’s lives
I am every lover amplified
3:38 Post-Chorus
And if all my features took centuries of shaping
Then I was generations in the making
I was generations in the making
All my features took centuries of shaping
I was generations in the making
