FAMILY over ALL

It's Family over all
That's forever
It's family over all
Yeah, yeah, yeah
June 19, 1994
A date to remember came child number four
By time you came home you was two pounds bigger
We was six years a part, you had a place in my heart
Ever since I picked you up I knew that you was a star
Even then, you was bright as ever
Bakari Khalfani
You would later turn into the life of every party
Known as LUI Kari
So many memories, it's hard to just pick one
I just wish I had more to make and pick from
Like the time you cut your braids
To the time we were at mom's house in a blizzard stuck for days
Or the Halloween party, or the day after Christmas, or even game night
Where talked and took pictures
If you need it then I got you, but you not the type to ask
That's the same shit that I do
We the same with that
When it came to the music
Never ask me to mix it, just for advice how to do it
That's facts
I seen pride in your eyes when you played me all your tracks back
And I was proud too
That's my regret cause I never told you
You so determined nothing ever stop you from getting want you wanted
Plus you did it your way, great father at the end of the day
That proven
You only stayed in Baltimore for lil Khari
That's just shows how you was moving

Now this is about your legacy
Know lil Khari got whatever he needs til the death of me
But this whole situation got me thinking who I really want standing next to me
How the fuck I call you and you just texting me
Asking if I'm good, nah, I don't think I'll ever be
My brother just passed and it's only been a week
Make sense of the situation
Darkest time for my family and you don't show up to the celebration
Maybe, I'm tripping but that's the anger is in me now
So I'm moving much different
My heart heavy
I find myself crying cause I feel empty
Don't wanna believe my lil brother not with me
I don't wanna see pain in the family eyes
I don't like the fact I can make it right
I don't want your son to grow up without you in his life
Bro I'm hurting, I will never be the same
Just know I love you and that's never going change
It's family over all
Love you Kari
