Family Matters

Uh I got an auntie who be raisin her daughters kids
Shes 46 one is 1 one is 2 others 4 and 6
Baby dad aint really with that supportive s**t
I come to town iced out with the foreign drip
I got another cousin she the same age as me
Our lifestyles completely different and basically
Her baby dad beat her a*s what I hate to see
Her black eye as I cried its a daily thing uh
And here I am chasin dreams
Ignorant with bliss worryin bout plays and streams
The crazy part is they dont even say a thing
They dont want me to worry just go and make the cream
I got an aunt with a cheatin husband always knew he bogus
Used to wear turtlenecks and some Louis loafers
Comin home to family struggles got me losin focus
I dont know how else to deal so its too late now
I got a brother out there who like 5 years old
I dont know why daddy tried to hide your soul
No blood test needed cause it just might be
Seen the picture lil man lookin just like me
It be the ones thats closest
That go through the motions
Maybe its me thats been selfish
Dont know why I cant help it
And its been hard for me
To see what you been goin through its tirin
Cause youve been sufferin youve been sufferin
No more sufferin in silence
And they dont even ask for s**t
When I was broke grandma MoneyGram-ed me cash and s**t
And she wasn't even the one that was havin it
Family be matterin most but as a catalyst
I got another cousin buggin who addicted to Xans
Said it was her substitute for never gettin a man
Said we all need love only if its in the plan
Forced love the worst love throw that s**t in the can
I got an auntie who a ********** it hurt my soul
Promise you sellin your body aint worth that gold
Reverse that role you dont gotta swerve that road
Searching for the answers I dont wanna search that low
Cause I done been through a lot my family goes through worse
Cryin on this airplane how I wrote this verse
They be sufferin in silence they dont tell me a thing
All they tell me is ***** go excel in your dreams
Yeah it be the ones thats closest
That go through the motions
Maybe its me thats been selfish
Dont know why I cant help it
And its been hard for me
To see what you been goin through its tirin
Cause youve been sufferin been sufferin
No more sufferin in silence
It be the ones thats closest
That go through the motions
Maybe its me thats been selfish
Dont know why I cant help it
And its been hard for me
To see what you been goin through its tirin
Youve been sufferin been sufferin
No more sufferin in silence
