FAMILY TIES Lyrics

Sometimes I hurt

And y'all don't know

But I figured

I'd let you know now

I don't wanna live with regrets

You know this

I'm tired and I'm feelin upset

But I'm chosen

Ain't tryna carry on those thangs

I'm focused

I'm gonna make a change it's time to rearrange my life

This journey to the top is a lonely one

On a constant search tryna find the only one

To help me fill this void Empty deep down inside

Cause family ain't always family try to keep it tight

I'm talkin bout that circle that you keep yoself latched to

But when you broke and ain't the man no more they pass you

To the left and keep it pushin cause you down and out

Listen close

I know what I been talkin bout

Long time ago I use to dream I'd be the man

Workin day and night on a mission to advance

Wearin the designer got the woman and the bands

But my life took a turn got me changin all my plans

So I grew up every day feelin mad depressed

Couldn't handle how we lost couldn't take the stress

I tried to ease my mind sayin this must be a test

I tried to mask the pain I felt by thinkin how we blessed

Yes

I don't wanna live with regrets

You know this

I'm tired and I'm feelin upset

But I'm chosen

Ain't tryna carry on those thangs

I'm focused

I'm gonna make a change it's time to rearrange my life

Steady tryna live a life I never wanted

I was scared to speak my mind I hate how they responded

All the time we spent together look at how we bonded

Just to Sever all these ties we ended up departed

Now you see why I been actin kinda strange lately

Why i been drownin all my sorrows in this here bailey

Inhale fresh air thank the great sea

Exhale my problems thank the great tree

A lot of people i imagined would've had my back

Turn they back on me the minute i ain't have a stack

Where I'm from to make a stack you had to sell a sack

But i would rather make a track and see it in a plaque

Success is key and that's exactly what i need around

But most of y'all don't even want it y'all a bunch of clowns

Grave gang we movin up but you ain't left the ground

You can stick to whatchu know we makin different sounds

I don't wanna live with regrets

You know this

I'm tired and i'm feelin upset

But i'm chosen

Ain't tryna carry on those thangs

I'm focused

I'm gonna make a change it's time to rearrange my life

Soledad canyon I would work a lot

Had to pick up cans and bottle just to stay alive

I would walk around in shame cause we ain't have a ride

Can you imagine all this rage that i feel inside

What made it kinda worse in the family was the drug addicts

We would walk around and act like we ain't got no habits

I was too young to see it so i never grabbed it

Just imagine if I did my life be hella tragic

It's kinda crazy how the closest to us tend to hate

When we around they play the part by actin hella fake

If there's a problem you should squash it try to set it straight

But all this envy in yo heart give you a bitter taste

Never change for nobody stay true inside

A brighter future you can see from all the tears you cried

Time to let go of the slack put it all aside

And break the curse of how you livin with them family ties
