Proud Family
Family ties
Family of five
Dad left I went jail
Mum kept the family alive
Just her and the twins
Money so low she had to cancel the sky
Late night running out of elec-ky
What you know about candle for light?
All I know is survival
I learnt that from Karen and life
Same old cycle
Nanny was right
I come from where the mothers are worried
Sun comes up and they're sons are haven't come in
Can't keep food in my room
Cah I know if my mum finds that then mum's flush it
Now I owe the big man Ps
And I gotta go country for nothing
I know the road ting well
I been who I see all these youngers becoming
I got one little cousin who's just like I was
He's about fourteen now and it's mad
Cah I ask myself where the time's gone
Gotta lead by example
Show the yute dem what I'm on
Mic on, let bygones be bygones
I told you im blessed my guy
I replaced that X with an I
That's why they call me an icon
Bloods thicker than-
Friends come and go most ain't lifelong
And the ones that are become family
And that's my family aside from he usual suspects
Can't take no more funerals
You see the suit but death ain't a suitable subject
So much to live for outside my musical success
Unconditional love
That get through anything miracle love
That nothing can't top this pinnacle love
That spiritual love, that's that original love
Our family
Proud family, from my granny to my children
Mum you raised a real one
My nephew coming soon
Got a cousin I ain't spoken to in years
And I still got love for you, proud

Proud family, from my granny to my children
Mum you raised a real one
My nephew coming soon
Got a cousin I ain't spoken to in years
And I still got love for you, yeah
My son's one and my daughter's eight
In all that time I ain't caught a case
Long time I ain't been active
I just been milking this rap shit
I don't know nothing bout corn and flake
If I let something slide
You ain't worth the twenty-five
That's for my son and my daughter's sake
I come from where our father figures
Are the hardest niggas, shotters, robbers
Heartless killers
This can't be the image but that's only half of the picture
Mum let her boys get away with murder
But she was hard on my sister
Pardon my history
Family affair they all part of my victory
I am no fatherless infant
But I was brought up with my auntie's assistance
And even though I don't live where I grew up I still cant keep my distance
How can I let my kids only ever say father at Christmas?
I got kids relying on me, I can't keep the iron on me
Babe can sleep on Ghetts but please stop lying on me
My babymum is a keeper I just do what she requires of me
The last time me and Jess spoke I said don't go dying on me
Unconditional love
That get through anything miracle love
That nothing cant top this pinnacle love
That spiritual love
That's that original love
