I've had similar thoughts. Chances are you do have some sort of value system even if you think you don't. You just think you don't because your values are different than your family's.
I grew up in a family that always ranted and raved about things being "immoral" due to religious reasons. So, I developed an aversion to even hearing the term morals.
However, we all have them. Everyone has some guiding principles even if it's as simple as thinking it's wrong to steal or something of the sort. It just isn't possible for anyone to go through life without developing a value system of some kind, even unconsciously.
Why do you need morals?
