Family
What about what I need
Curtis says it's the best thing for the group
What about what's best for me
He feels that dreams can cross over
What about how I feel
Once we're famous, I'll write great things for you.
Effy, do it for me
What about me, what about me
It's more than you, it is more than me
No matter what we are, we are a family
This dream is for all of us, this one can be real
And you can't stop us now because of how you feel
It's more than you, it is more than me
Whatever dreams we have they're for the family
We're not alone anymore now they are others there
And that dream's big enough for all of us to share
So don't think you're going, you're not going anywhere
You're staying and taking your share
And if you get afraid again, I'll be there
We are a family like a giant tree branching out the sky
We are a family
We are so much more than just you and I
We are a family like a giant tree
Growing stronger, growing wiser
We are growing free
We need you
We are a family
Curtis says it's the best thing for the group

What about me, what about me
It's more than you, it is more than me
No matter what we are, we are a family
This dream is for all of us, this one can be real
And you can't stop us now because of how you feel
It's more than you, it is more than me
Whatever dreams we have they're for the family

And that dream's big enough for all of us to share
So don't think you're going, you're not going anywhere
You're staying and taking your share
And if you get afraid again, I'll be there
We are a family like a giant tree branching out the sky
We are a family
We are so much more than just you and I
We are a family like a giant tree
Growing stronger, growing wiser
We are growing free
We need you
We are a family
