Ebi (Family) Lyrics

20 friends no fit play for 20 years

I know

But me and my sisters still play

And after 10 years you fit no see your friends

It's true

But if you like don't stay with me,

I know my sisters will stay

Fight today, smile tomorrow, over the same things we fought about

And that's okay cos as we fight ourselves we still fight for each other

My sister's here for me, and she knows i'm here for her

and come rain or shine, our love will never die

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family

And it took time but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing in life more important than…

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family,

And it took time, but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing more important than family

Fathers can't last forever

And oh what a shame!

The bieh bieh wey black before,

na so so white hair remain

When i see my mother now,

I can only wonder how the time flew by and it'll never be enough.

I'm living in the moment, and i'll cherish what's here

My daddy's still here with me, and i have no reason to fear

Mummy's back is still strong o, she's still feeling young o and i pray in my heart that God will keep them long o

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family

And it took time but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing in life more important than…

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family,

And it took time, but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing more important than family

One brother is worth a thousand friends

No lies

The day this one came like this, i wept for joy, we all cried

It is still the greatest honor to be your sister and your friend

And if anybody try you, you sef sabi say them go collect

Watching you grow from that baby boy to a bright young man has shown me life in a different way and from a brand new canvas

And i hope that you see, how much i love you: more than a thousand friends, more than a thousand friends.

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family

And it took time but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing in life more important than…

Family! When there's no friend,

There's family,

And it took time, but finally,

I can see, that there's nothing more important than family

These are the people i will never trade,

And the sacrifices they have made

Have made me who i am today, am today

Memories i would protect,

Experiences i don't regret

In the moments that i won't forget
