Family Ties

Tonya, Adeldra, Anisa, Alida, Isaiah
I didn’t mean to grow up
Didn’t mean to get stoney
Word to my father Tony
'85 was cool dude, and I was the cool foo
Chillin' in school dude
Pen hit the paper
It’s all about the family…
And those that’s livin'
You are the true and given
It’s Thes and Double
And yo we always into trouble
Hey, Archie
Here’s a treat
Cause I’m loving my lady up
Loving my family
Y’all might tease the DJ
And I’m off the wall
Take a picture of yall
The P army and all
Bounce a basketball on the schoolyard pavement
Go home smoke a j, make a beat and then save it
My family is on the wall
We had love fo' sho'
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce
For families that’s separated
Families that still together
Families in good fortune
And families under the weather
For families that deal with addicts
Families that suffer loss
Families that fighting cancer together at any cost
For family that are your friends
And family that’s the hardest
Not our family it’s blood but we love them regardless
For family for you choosin' for a couple you don’t
Wouldn’t it be easier to turn your back on them
But you won’t
We find a way to forgive
So we can live and move on
So we can love move on
Support our family, strong
It’s like that Thanksgiving hug when you open the front door
You know that you’re home because you’ve been there before
Where you can smell the turkey cooking in every room in the house
We laugh at the same stories
Grandma’s perfume on her blouse
For our family who are with us and a couple that’s gone
We celebrate the good times and reminisce on a song
Ain’t no love if you can’t love each other through
We had love fo' sho'
