Family Business (No Background Words)

This is family business
and this is for the family that can't be with us
and this is for my cousin locked down or the answers in us
this why i spit it in my song so sweet like a photo where your grannies picture
now that your gone it hit us, super hard on Thanksgiving and Christmas this can't be right
yea you heard the track i did man this can't be life
somebody please say grace so I can save face
and have a reason to cover my face
I even made you a plate
soul food know how granny do it
monkey bread on the side know how da family do it
when I brought a wallet dawg
hadda look all through it
as kids we used to laugh
who knew life would've moved this fast
who knew I'd have to look at you thorough a glass
and look you tell me you ain't did it, then you ain't did it
and if you did then thats family business

This is family business
and this is for everybody standing with us
come on lets take a family grammy picture
abby remember my name believe in me
now shes like see thats my cousin on TV
now we getting it in
we gon` make it end
they gon` hate it and
I'm his favorite
I can't deny it
I'm a straight rider
but when we get together be electric sliding
grandma get em shook up
aw nah don't open the photo book up
I got a aunt Ruth that can't remember your name
but i bet them poloroids will send her down memory lane
You know that one auntie you don't mean to be rude
but every holiday nobody eating her food
and you don't want to stay there cuz them your worst cousins
got roaches at the crib like them your first cousins
act like you ain't take a bath with your cousin
fit three in the bed if there six of you'll
I'm talking about 3 by the head and 3 by the leg
but you ain't have to tell my girl i used to pee in the bead

I woke up early this morning with a new state of mind
a creative way to rhyme without using knives and guns
keep your nose out the sky keep your heart to guide
and keep your face to the rising sun
all my niggas from the shines, my family dawg
and my niggas ain't my guides, they my family dawg
i feel like one day you'll understand me dawg
you can still know you better be manly dawg
you ain't gotta be heated at every house warming
sitting here grilling people like George foreman
my uncle ray and aunt she's a always performing
second she storm out then he's storming
you'll gon sit down and have a good time this reunion
and drink some wine like communion
and act like everything fine and if it isn't
we ain't letting everyone in our family business
