Lyrics Fam Thing (feat. Uncle.Kofi) - Afterthought

I flipped the I and the am
Cause now I understand
Who the fuck I am
Found my footing, found my plan
On the common ground that we stand
I know I may stand out
Fat nigga, with style, I'm always holding it down
I'm a city boy baby that's where I got sauce
Care free but caring I got that from my pops
Always wit the shit a nigga don't stop
They like "how you get the drip" nigga that's my moms
Never let the family down that's on me
Keep my circle close, keeps me at ease
Learn from the past chop it up wit its ogs
And keep a stiched lips on anything i see
Like woah woah woah woah
Loyalty on me I never let go
Sandbox fam still tapped in wit fosho
It's family affair shout of to sly stone
Im there
Throw shade who cares
I'm like Denzel with pencil I play his role where that x go
I'm proud of ya never let go
This a fam thing, and it's special

For a while
I put a lock on it
So you couldn't bring bring em out chop and screw wit it
And I didn't know so I went and got cool wit it
Finally found the key to the lock now I'm smooth with it
Now its a fam thing
Who you run-in from
We smile up in ur face put our twos up
So the rings and things you sing about bring em out
Tryna pull you up
When you down and out

Ok I'm back to it
I mean I gotta have it
Speak my truth - free my mind
Keep my cool - through all the crying
Or I'm trying - it's tough out there
News is lying - niggas stuck out there
But I push past it, the present lasting, think of the future like what comes after
Understanding
And under stand it
It's fam thing
(Fam Thing)
People have the power cause the power is within
Power to my people's, expose the cowards and there sin (fuck trump)
Im not waiting on a miracle, I'm me and my kinfolk
And my kinfolk ya we been know
We bend foes never break vows
Any box Ya we break out
Elevate never change up
Afterthought still the same bruh
Goffy poet with some game bruh
Elevate never change up
Afterthought still the same bruh
Goffy poet with some game bruh
Leave that hate ever over there (Cause that ain't us)

For a while
I put a lock on it
So you couldn't bring bring em out chop and screw wit it
And I didn't know so I went and got cool wit it
Finally found the key to the lock now I'm smooth with it
Now its a fam thing
Who you run-in from
We smile up in ur face put our twos up
So the rings and things you sing about bring em out
Tryna pull you up
When you down and out
When your down and out

I made it out the system
I know that there's difference
400 miles of distance
My kin was not kinship
But my kin I still visit
My sins have no witness
My mind was so tinted
Had to roll down the windows
In time I still risen
Mothers father
I am my own author
Don't get it twisted
My mother both did things
Went beyond the distance
That I could ever comprehend
Family till the end
What more can I say
All those days I prayed
Looked for change
Its my life I wouldn't have it any other way
Yeah
Fam Thing
Now its a fam thing
