VERSE ONE (MCsk** ThaPreacha)
Yo pops, intelligent black man
Still the head of the family, turn up the volume for this jam
You the fountain of knowledge
I mean the type of knowledge, the one that go way past college, that knowledge!
You ain't where you supposed to be, its temporary
Only d**h is permanent, no need for testimonies
Life all about supply and demand
And you still supplied when i didn't even demand
Yo! Staying strong for fam, it ain't easy been the man
Learnt that early in life, word to my p-man
The p means the power
The power of collective consciousness you instilled in me, now its growing flowers
Too many hours in the lab tryna perfect the art
Too many songs I've written but this gon' touch your heart
I love you man, big up! We got the chemistry
This one from your son, family over everything
VERSE TWO (MCsk** ThaPreacha)
Dear moms, my best friend
The first woman in my life, my rare gem, i greet you ma'am
The greatest honor is being your son
In multiple lifetimes, i'm still gonna be your son
Its all fun till i think about d**h
The only thing that's gonna separate us, sometimes i run out of breath
You don raised me right
After degree, choose my path in this music business, that's lazy right?
And that's what these other people said
You don't listen, got my back one hunnid cos you really care
Bout my happiness, my feelings
And that's what real mothers do, encourage their children
You know the deal moms
I stay grinding till i make these haters my fans, i make them sing along
You taught me how to rise above my enemies
FOE - Family over everything
VERSE THREE (MCsk** ThaPreacha)
My brother, my only brother from my mother
We been pushing this game for years, staying true to one another
We gon get there, the will and zeal is right
The power of family, we got that, we got the light
We gon shine, just a matter of time
I write these rap confidently, we stood the test of time
I call you the ace, the beat chef
Yeah you the master, mixing these joints without a preset
You got the sk** set, magic fingers and reflex
Compliment your beats with fire bars, no real stress
Yea, We gon rise above our enemies
My brother Stormatique, family over everything
