Family Tree
sometimes because of jealousy and the intent to demise
certain factions have to be fobidden or destroyed
fire has to be sent to the poisoned forest
with the root of fresh trees planted elsewhere
only then will you obtain a wilderness
that cannot be penetrated
petrified
family tree
(Chorus)
see what started as a family forest
got cut to a family tree
with the limbs and the leaves
lookin at the world for answers
the world points to the sun
and the sun says the answers in me
so i search through the darkness
can't find the key
so we locked in the land of the lost
lord please
tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me
so now we choose the roots
so we can plant new trees
many minds always meet with pens and sheets
close my eyes think what next on my rhymes
see this face in ink
i'm havin visions of wisdom
dreamin bout my own ending
am i seein death as freedom
and livin as prison
my son didn't have a daddy to shape him
so god bless him with a daddy to save him
yeah i raise him
and pay some attention
he talked and he listened
to reach him and teach him before i'm gone from existence
teach him bout the foes the hos and all opponents
those that always talk bout love
but never showed it
those who had the chances to stand
and always blowed it
those that set you up by the hour to steal your moment
pac
the word is you ain't there so fuck the rumor
i'll get a pound of that shit from bermuda and meet you in cuba
fucked up on larusa no doubt
i know the locale if they gotta born you
i'm gonna mourne you til i join you
(Chorus)
see what started as a family forest
got cut to a family tree
with the limbs and the leaves
lookin at the world for answers
the world points to the sun
and the sun says the answers in me
so i search through the darkness
can't find the key
so we locked in the land of the lost
lord please
tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me
so now we choose the roots
so we can plant new trees
uhhhh...and now i know i got some family
who missed me from the heart
forever we're apart
just because i'm nothin and you abuse me and use me
now you wanna try to come bruise me
and even though maybe were in there farther than it once was
i know family don't always mean that they blood 'cause
some people just don't give a nigga what
some people tried to use my name
so all the fat we had to cut
and i'm still walking with my six amp strut
urban eyes see through camouflage
and now i know who's butt
so when i sent you tried to play me
all of a sudden now i'm shady
maybe deep down in my heart
never trust you from the start
never hoped you'd be my homie
don't come 'round my way
and if we never speak again
it's got to be that way
this millenium we'll be spankin your heiny
remind thee naughty invented family of the 90's
(Chorus)
see what started as a family forest
got cut to a family tree
with the limbs and the leaves
lookin at the world for answers
the world points to the sun
and the sun says the answers in me
so i search through the darkness
can't find the key
so we locked in the land of the lost
lord please
tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me
so now we choose the roots
so we can plant new trees
life doesn't end when the sweat dries
a time when a nickle cost a dollar
when you rise your chest dies
my dynasty
many fear it cos' i'm near it
ancient egyptian scriptures fitted in through hyroglyphics
motherfuckers try to touch my mental state
niggas smile up in your face and then they infiltrate
so it seems nowadays that the only plan
to get my people help my people get a load of land
and imma see it if i have to kill some shit
to make my family tree a motherfucking wilderness
see a black man standin on the promised land
since they broke every promise i devised a plan
this black this and black that crap is gettin touchy
any black hat that cross my path
i call him lucky
those who turn they back with they fears
and try to
before they can see us they gonna need us
sweet jesus
(Chorus x2)
see what started as a family forest
got cut to a family tree
with the limbs and the leaves
lookin at the world for answers
the world points to the sun
and the sun says the answers in me
so i search through the darkness
can't find the key
so we locked in the land of the lost
lord please
tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me
so now we choose the roots
so we can plant new trees
