Family Ties
Built up on family ties
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed at age of 21
For the first time
We're all born survivors, whatever colour you are
We all have a time to expire
Take notes in your mind, time goes so fast you can't write it
That's why most of your friends are natural liars
So much sorrow in my heart, so how can I write it
My eyes tell a story like they died again
It felt like that for years, angry they died
My eyes have no space for tears, you'll wanna speak to me
Built up on family ties
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed it at the age of 21
For the very first time
But you're speaking like an open book
What wisdom you got
You got any scars in your pretty skin for me to look
No, no you ain't
So why you acting like you relate
What's your definition of pain
You look like you was born in a household
That your destiny won't be delayed
A sheep could never be a lion
So how can you relate
A sheep could never be a lion
So how can you relate
Built up on family ties
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed it at the age of 21
For the first time
For the first time
Age of 21
For the first time
You been giving a silver spoon up to this day
Why you believe the matrix you living in is great
Your destiny is not to be a king of an empire
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed at age of 21
For the first time
We're all born survivors, whatever colour you are
We all have a time to expire
Take notes in your mind, time goes so fast you can't write it
That's why most of your friends are natural liars
So much sorrow in my heart, so how can I write it
My eyes tell a story like they died again
It felt like that for years, angry they died
My eyes have no space for tears, you'll wanna speak to me
Built up on family ties
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed it at the age of 21
For the very first time
But you're speaking like an open book
What wisdom you got
You got any scars in your pretty skin for me to look
No, no you ain't
So why you acting like you relate
What's your definition of pain
You look like you was born in a household
That your destiny won't be delayed
A sheep could never be a lion
So how can you relate
A sheep could never be a lion
So how can you relate
Built up on family ties
What made me, I cannot rewind
Grew more into a man when my father died
Seeing death at first hand
Taught me to treasure life
The moment the person is speaking to you
The next day they die
Been a warrior since I witnessed it at the age of 21
For the first time
For the first time
Age of 21
For the first time
You been giving a silver spoon up to this day
Why you believe the matrix you living in is great
Your destiny is not to be a king of an empire
