We tough as nails in my family You mess with them, yo, you messin with me Wouldn't believe the shit we've been through Mark my words, better me than you We was brought up in a battle ground Every third day, thugs be coming around They *(?)* the way cause we were bound To bear the burden of what went down It was our business Even if it hurt we were self-righteous Social services parked outside Tried to take us away Mama wouldn't abide, na na na We've laughed and we've cried Through the hardships we've been tied You gotta chose your battles right Know when to forfeit know when to fight We get a little bit closer every time we ride A little bit tougher every time we die A little better cause at least we tried A little bit nicer cause we know we fly That's how we roll in my family To add insult to injury If you use a knife, cut straight to bone Go hard or go home A couple cuts and bruises were easy to hide Sun glasses hide a black eye But you can't run away from a black soul So many secrets we never told Why your clothes be dirty? Why your hair all messy? Why you look so ill? Couldn't pay the water bill Had to keep the light on for the homework So excuse us, we got a couple of quirks I trivialize cause the truth hurts So much more than a little dirt Even if it's all bottled up inside It's a lot more noble than a suicide We survive We alive We got pride We be tight You know we ride to a certain degree To keep that shit in the family We get a little bit closer every time we ride A little bit tougher every time we die A little better cause at least we tried A little bit nicer cause we know we fly That's how we roll in my family To add insult to injury If you use a knife, cut straight to bone Go hard or go home It takes a lot more courage to love than it does to hate Anyone who's got a family can relate Ain't never really dissipates May take my whole life to get it straight But it makes me who I am And I wouldn't trade that for nothing We get a little bit closer every time we ride A little bit tougher every time we die A little better cause at least we tried A little bit nicer cause we know we fly That's how we roll in my family To add insult to injury If you use a knife, cut straight to bone Go hard or go home |
