Love Your Family ft. Havoc
Love Your Family ()-Cormega /Havoc
I got a daughter I support her open heartedly
It bothers me how fathers
Be havin'children irresponsibly
How could I not nurture what I conceived
Or deprive her she my prophecy
As I stare in her eyes there's no despair deception
Or awareness except when givin'affection
She's the water that purifies me
More than likely wearing jordans like me
As she grows I'll expose her to all that I've seen
Like the island of saint croy
Where smile and she brings joy
She the cover I'm the line
Of what survival is based on
How I teach her to stay strong
And live through wilderness
If I instill in her the will to live
Shell get through it
She my first seed my genesis
My last bit of innocence
My understanding wisdom brings
What knowledge is given
I hope to surround her with prominent figures
So she can grow to be a positive woman
And never doubts that I love her
Ain't nothing like family
Til they gone then u realize
How much they meant to you
More than a friend'll do
Give em their roses while they're still alive
I know the world's understanding me
Go ahead show that love stop
Tryin'to be a tough guy
Cuz when they gone you'll be saying
That you didn't get the chance
To say you love em and you have to live with
That for the rest of my life
To the most 3influential women in my life
My moms and sister and grandmoms alike
Don't think you don't appreciate
The love you give me
And on my birthday the cards you send me
Y'all will always be there
When others ain't so friendly
To me or to weather my life and never goin'empty
No matter how rich I get I know you never envy
No matter how broke
I get I know you always help me
No matter what I know that love is wealthy
And all you care if I'm living or healthy
And only something nice out
Your mouth that you try to tell me
And if I'm doing wrong won't hesitate to tell me
Ayo that's the kinda love that I'm talking about
So while you here I'm giving back
That's what family's about
If there's anything you need
No matter what the price
Try to get it even if it means giving my life
Because ain't nothing like family
Til they gone then u realize
How much they meant to you
More than a friend'll do
Give em their roses while they're still alive
I know the world's understanding me
Go ahead show that love stop
Tryin'to be a tough guy
Cuz when they gone you'll be saying
That you didn't get the chance
To say you love em and you have to live with
That for the rest of my life
You gave us life it ain't your fault
The street corrupted us
You raised us right
When them bullies used f**kin'with us
You made us fight
Gave your heart or soul
Rich or poor
There would always be a pot on the stove
You made sure we had a roof over
Our head and clothes for school
And discipline soon as we opposed the rules
A hard head made us soft but
When we was comin'up
You gave us advice on what life
Would have in store for us
All you niggas runnin'round out there all wild
Playin'the streets like it's goin'outta style
Remember gotta take time
Out for those who love you
They the only ones could live
You like no one else could love you
And if you think I'm bullshitting
Let that time pass
Let that a**get broke and see which love last
Blood is thicker than water
Just remember that
And no matter what the problem
Know they always got my back
Ya heard
Ain't nothing like family
Til they gone then u realize
How much they meant to you
More than a friend'll do
Give em their roses while they're still alive
I know the world's understanding me
Go ahead show that love stop
Tryin'to be a tough guy
Cuz when they gone you'll be saying
That you didn't get the chance
To say you love em and you have to live with
That for the rest of my life
Ain't nothing like family
Til they gone then u realize
How much they meant to you
More than a friend'll do
Give em their roses while they're still alive
I know the world's understanding me
Go ahead show that love stop
Tryin'to be a tough guy
