[verse 1]
Mama wipe the tears from out your eyes
For the all hurt Ive caused I just wanna apologize
When I was young I broke your plates
When I got older broke your heart
18 and I thought I was smart
I said Im sorry mama, I'm sorry mama
For getting locked up putting you through all the trauma
Lord Knows I dont mean to offend
Ill never put you through that again
You believed in from 89 and ever since
Youre my queen thanks for raising a prince
You deserve all the thanks more than just an applause
Deserve the world so Im making it yours
They say the fam that prays gets paid together so for that well be fam forever
Man these people mean the world to me
Ill introduce you to my family tree
[Hook]
I could have the whole world in the palm of my hand without my family I aint got nothing
Close knit till the end of our days and on and on and on and on.[x2]
[verse 2]
Pops, man of the house, taught me to be courageous
You taught me how to be a man from my early stages
You made something outta nothing put us in a castle
And that's how I learnt to hustle from my papas hustle
You got me into music first with SADE
Then Pac, then the roots even harry Belafonte
I was a snotty nosed, pre-teen, knee high
You made me hit the stage and tell the world that I can fly
Years later had our first drink it was potent
Damn I always relive the moment
Youve done well you got nothing to fear
Sit back pops I got it from here
They say the fam that prays gets paid together so for that well be fam forever
Man these people mean the world to me, Ill introduce you to my family tree
[Hook]
I could have the whole world in the palm of my hand without my family I aint got nothing
Close knit till the end of our days and on and on and on and on.[x2]
[verse 3]
Heir to the throne, wish you all the best
Wish you success, dont ever settle for less
Dont be like older brother who drank away his career
Cos you giving up on your dream is one of my biggest fears
Look I know that we having our ups we have downs
We have those moments where we wann throw down
But if the whole damn planet thought that what you do is wack
Id be there for you cos I got your back and thats a brother pact
God given talent, from the start
You know the drill homie follow your heart
Just make the choice and start opening doors
Dream big bra the world is yours
They say the fam that prays gets paid together so for that well be fam forever
Man these people mean the world to me, Ill introduce you to my family tree
[Hook]
I could have the whole world in the palm of my hand without my family I aint got nothing
Close knit till the end of our days and on and on and on and on.[x2]
[verse 4]
Believe in you like you believe in me
You are the most precious gem on our family tree
Sister, Beautiful inside and out
A gift to the heart, blessed from above
With you I make sure that I cherish every minute
Youre a star in my eyes and a friend to the spirit
So young so focused I pray you make it
And reach all of your goals in the world of entertainment
I know at times I can be overprotective
But youre the only girl in the fam so its expected
There is no better friend than a sister that much is true
And there is no better sister than you
They say the fam that prays gets paid together so for that well be fam forever
Man these people mean the world to me, Ill introduce you to my family tree
[Hook]
I could have the whole world in the palm of my hand without my family I aint got nothing
Close knit till the end of our days and on and on and on and on.[x2]
