Greeks place immense value on 'roots' (ρίζες). Saying a talent is in the blood is a way of honoring the family line. For islanders, the sea is often described as being in their blood, reflecting centuries of naval history. In 'Laiko' music, lyrics often use blood metaphors to describe deep, unchangeable pain or passion. The Greek diaspora often uses this phrase to describe their 'innate' survival and business instincts abroad.
