Verse 1:
This is family business and this is for the family that can´t be with us
And this is for my cousin locked down I know the answers in us
Thats why I spit it in my songs
So sweet like a photo of your grannies picture
Now that your gone it hit us
Super hard on thanksgiving and christmas this can´t be right
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 you know how Granny do it
Monkey bread on the side you know how the family do it
When I brought it why the guard had to look all through it
As kids we use to laugh who knew life would move this fast
Who knew I had to look at you through a glass
And look you tell me you ain´t did it then u ain´t did it
And if you did then thats family business
Verse 2:
This is family business and this is for everybody standing with us
Come on lets take a family grammy picture
Abby remeber when they ain´t believe in me
Now she like see thats my cousin on TV
We gettin it and we gon make it
And 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 slidin
Grandma get em shook up
Aw naw don´t open the photo book up
I got a Aunt Ruth that can´t remember your name
But i bet them poloraids a´ send her down memory lane
You know that one auntie u don´t wanna be rude
But every holiday nobody eatin her food
And you don´t wanna stay there cause them your worst cousins
Got roaches at they crib like them your first cousins
Act like you ain´t take a bath with yo cousin
Fit three in the bed if its six of yall
I´m talking bout 3 by the head and 3 by the leg
But you ain´t have to telll my girl I used to pee in the bed
Verse 3:
I woke up early this morning with a new state of mind
A creative way to rhyme without using nines and guns
Keep your nose out the sky keep your heart with God
And keep your face to the rising sun
All my niggas from the Chi is my family dog
And my niggas ain´t my guys they my family dog
I feel like one day you´ll understand me dog
You can still love you man and be manly dog
You ain´t gotta get heated at every house warming
Siittin here grilling people like George Foreman
Why uncle Ray and Aunt Sheila always performing
Second she storm out then he storm in
Yall gonna sit down 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 everybody in our Family Business
This is family business and this is for the family that can´t be with us
And this is for my cousin locked down I know the answers in us
Thats why I spit it in my songs
So sweet like a photo of your grannies picture
