Family Matters Lyrics

Yeah, hope we don't shatter, we facing some family matters

Everybody discussing each other, we hear the chatter

Sadder part is we often make narratives with the data

Instead of hearing the shit from the horse's mouth

And of course the confusion just make you madder

Sadly we got a long way to go before we could get to the family love that we had at one

Point

We know the deeper issues, gotta face them at some point

Don't wanna be solo on top the ladder

You'd rather get some money and never check

On your fam

Or check on your fam and get some money, I choose the latter

Never been understood even when I fixed up the grammar

Still calling my grandma my auntie, and my auntie my cousin

And my cousin my brother, got a cousin that hate me

Hope she know I still love her, it's family ties

We all got little issues, we tend to push to the side

I tend to push you away, I need to push for my pride

I need the personal space, I need some kush for the ride

Bout to visit my moms, I need some drips for my eyes

Still love getting cocoa butter kisses

Sister still wants Zendaya to end up my misses

My momma still, still help her brother out although I know that she don't understand

My business

Ventures, but I love her all the more for it

I know she got my back and that's no matter what the sitch is

I hate that I don't write, or rather I won't write

The shit that I really feel out of fear that my family

Hear some shit that they don't like

Suppressing emotion is suicidal

Practicing how I say it, confessions are like recitals

Learning love for the better, learning I gotta reach out to family too

Instead of just waiting for you to message, you too focused on cheddar

You ain't notice your niece's cognitive skills getting better

You too busy just planning releases

Sending music to people who listen just for critiquing

Cause they only 400, got little faith in your speakers

Hated face in my family, don't make sense when I easily see my face in their features

Wanna be where the peace is, you don't find it you make it

Used to think that you walked to it, I was gravely mistaken

I'm working graveyard shifts, my sister treat me like the goat already

Ain't even drop that album, but this shit so good I'm finna gloat already

And as far as it goes, my dad taught me resilience, that's as far as my goals

Doesn't mean he was perfect, realizing that parents are still a regular person

Realizing that even if they didn't get it at first

That I gotta thank them for never stopping me

Going to studio and just chasing my purpose

And so far shit is working, relatively my relatives see I'm bout my assertion

Hella busy, my head has been in the motion of working

Eyes open, answer cause I was hoping

We could get to the bottom of why you don't answer me when I text

I got a feeling I know but can you confirm it

Preaching love to the choir not listening to my sermon

Doing people a service, do this music so well you would swear that I've been a rapper before I got to the cervix

Been around and the word is, mama your boy been taking his time to talk about love that's wherever he see the hurt is

Getting older and learning, joints are longer and burning

Help me deal with the pressure, put your boy in the booth and I put the beat on a stretcher

Moving slow but I'm earning, family over fame and frankly I've been determined

Treating my people better, know that I wasn't always the best at

Staying in touch but I'm praying that you don't sweat it

Love you now more than ever, hopefully I can make it before my grandfather passes

So we can kick it together and just be

A family

Cause family matters
