family - daface lyrics

[verse 1: da face]
if you ah brethren and a trust you
ah cyah let n0body touch you
we rock back and sip a scotch too
llb or on de rocks too
mih family mih blood too
dey cyannot drag we through the mud
i come and meet these bonds here
i cyah leave it on de ground
i not beefing with mih brother
i not tiefing from mih sister
i look up to see mih aunt
i tell god how much i miss her
i kiss her in mih sleep
was her student when she teach
was her pupil when she preach
she show me de family tree
i defend the family tree
i protecting every leaf
steady tending to the soil
till is happiness we reap
i not sparing no expense
as a treasure this eh cheap
there’s some hurt between the levers
that forever runs deep
such a picture perfect surface
till the vision is inverted
now we naked like we faked it
cause the love it not returning
and it hurts me so powerless
i confess it is concerning
how you make your mother sad
on this lesson you are learning
how you make your father sad
but he never really show it
how you make your brothers sad
and your sisters going through it
i just hope we is wrong
is only the father really know it
if i had a time machine
could i even undo it
i confess i still growing
not for love the boy is owing
be the bigger man for true then
bigger than mih father ewing
still it feeling like a losing
trying to hold on but ah slipping (take a breath)
trying to hold on to the tree
that corrupted in the system
seems like everything was there
disappeared now much is missing
and n0body talks to me
who doing nothing but listen
should i steady soldier on
just to fold up on this mission
i already know de song
still cyah give up on the mission

[verse 2: da face]
if you ah brethren yuh know de code
palo seco by the gap down number 4 road
palo seco desert park where mih dad used toplay
see him running on de beach in the morning to train
he the youngest of seven,still young he still revving
his teachings is the reason ah believe that ah might see heaven
no weapon formed against the section
is allowed to proper just check we roster
not the perfect posture but no imposters
looking perfect overrated in the end it will cost ya
aimless looking in the mirror when i thought i did lost ya
boy ah hoping that you still here that would really be off

used to snap and take nuff pictures and drop in unannounced
i eh see you since dat one time when you come by de house
de last time with a phone to plug in a landline
to save money on a call international line
that sounds just like you
we laugh then reminisce
you gone ghost, i eh see you down here ever since
be-ing an actuary, could be actually scary
ha to make the song cry before mih eyes get teary
going samson on dem walls closing in till ah weary
ha to hold the family tree for people that near me
when mih grandmother died
ah saw a grown man cry
ah saw my own dad cry
for the very first time
when my mother lost her parents a read the eulogy
which was new to me true but a do it for real
i feel pain antic-p-ting for when that time comes
kinda stupid but my brain kinda bracing from now
i eh want to lose the two who do the most to me
mih two parents big branches on mih family tree
