"Family Tree" was recorded live at Phasefest (@ Phase 9) in Washington, DC in 2008.

lyrics

Oh when I get blue
it sure gets real bad
And I mourn the loss

So does my mama
and so does my dad
'Cause we're three of us born

she's of a different breed
'Cause I take what I'm given
and she takes what she needs
Then there's my lady
she's of a different kind
'Cause I take what's left
when she leaves it behind
