Before ya take me God, help me get my family straight.
I asked God why didn't He bless me with a silver spoon
Cause if he did I'd never have to be a goon.
If he gon' change my family I hope he do it soon.

My daddy near 50 still livin with his momma
can't even have a family reuion it's alwayz drama.
last three months I dun lost both of my uncles.
Why my family luck bad I sit n wunda
we ain't close lyke we should be n dat is taken us unda.
the only time we cum together is to have a funeral
sit around n talk about each other n spread rumors.
kno it's sum of mah fault cause I don't talk to em
For my family to be happy is all I want
help my grandma fight, god I know she don't
To see my mama retire that's all I want
hope my brudda get out to see his kids for once
