Family Matters Video (MV)

Yeah, hope we don't shatter, we facing some family matters
Everybody discussing each other, we hear the chatter
Sadder part is we often make narratives with the data
Instead of hearing the shit from the horse's mouth
And of course the confusion just make you madder
Sadly we got a long way to go before we could get to the family love that we had at one
Point
We know the deeper issues, gotta face them at some point
Don't wanna be solo on top the ladder
You'd rather get some money and never check
On your fam
Or check on your fam and get some money, I choose the latter
Never been understood even when I fixed up the grammar
Still calling my grandma my auntie, and my auntie my cousin
And my cousin my brother, got a cousin that hate me
Hope she know I still love her, it's family ties
We all got little issues, we tend to push to the side
I tend to push you away, I need to push for my pride
I need the personal space, I need some kush for the ride
Bout to visit my moms, I need some drips for my eyes
Still love getting cocoa butter kisses
Sister still wants Zendaya to end up my misses
My momma still, still help her brother out although I know that she don't understand
My business
Ventures, but I love her all the more for it
I know she got my back and that's no matter what the sitch is
I hate that I don't write, or rather I won't write
The shit that I really feel out of fear that my family
Hear some shit that they don't like
Suppressing emotion is suicidal
Practicing how I say it, confessions are like recitals
Learning love for the better, learning I gotta reach out to family too
Instead of just waiting for you to message, you too focused on cheddar
You ain't notice your niece's cognitive skills getting better
You too busy just planning releases
Sending music to people who listen just for critiquing
Cause they only 400, got little faith in your speakers
Hated face in my family, don't make sense when I easily see my face in their features
Wanna be where the peace is, you don't find it you make it
Used to think that you walked to it, I was gravely mistaken
I'm working graveyard shifts, my sister treat me like the goat already
Ain't even drop that album, but this shit so good I'm finna gloat already
And as far as it goes, my dad taught me resilience, that's as far as my goals
Doesn't mean he was perfect, realizing that parents are still a regular person
Realizing that even if they didn't get it at first
That I gotta thank them for never stopping me
Going to studio and just chasing my purpose
And so far shit is working, relatively my relatives see I'm bout my assertion
Hella busy, my head has been in the motion of working
Eyes open, answer cause I was hoping
We could get to the bottom of why you don't answer me when I text
I got a feeling I know but can you confirm it
Preaching love to the choir not listening to my sermon
Doing people a service, do this music so well you would swear that I've been a rapper before I got to the cervix
Been around and the word is, mama your boy been taking his time to talk about love that's wherever he see the hurt is
Getting older and learning, joints are longer and burning
Help me deal with the pressure, put your boy in the booth and I put the beat on a stretcher
Moving slow but I'm earning, family over fame and frankly I've been determined
Treating my people better, know that I wasn't always the best at
Staying in touch but I'm praying that you don't sweat it
Love you now more than ever, hopefully I can make it before my grandfather passes
So we can kick it together and just be
A family
Cause family matters
