Family

You know that I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all

You know that I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all

Who gone love you like your family?
Made sure that everything you ever needed was granted
As you arrived up on this planet, from day one
Who put them clothes up on your back? Food in your stomach?
Gave you their two cents even when you didn't want it?
Where would I be without my momma and my poppa?
They say it take a village, well my kin raised me proper
Everything I went through is what made me
Nature and nurture, you can't live life without changing
My blood, those that I love and the things I've done,
All played a hand in the man that I've become
See family we ain't choose, family we can't change
From the DNA strands, to the blood in our veins
Different branches, different names, but the roots
Are the same, just to signify the family that we came

I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all

You know that I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all

People use the word friend, but can't tell me what it means
Are you with me or against me? Ain't no inbetween
I hate being phony, you can call me anti-social
Everybody don't know me and everyone ain't the homie
We all got acquaintances, but how well do know em?
Might not always say it, but at least hope I show it
If I love you, in time you'll find exactly what the truth is
Words is words, so I just let my actions prove it
The good outweigh the bad, or imma keep it moving
Don't know if you knew this, every connection is love and hate
At the end of the day, can we accept our flaws
And act like family?

You know that I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all

You know that I got love, for my kinfolk my blood
Through the thick and thin, we here no matter what
I got love, for my homies, my dawgs
Through the years, we been through it all
