letra de family's us - abe shaw
(verse 1)
1956, 88, 93
eating scrambled eggs, fried bologna, cream of wheat
in a 1 floor apartment thinking we living the dream
just my momma, and my sister, and just little ol me
i would cry on the weekends when i’d see my sister leave
i was even crying over death of dr king
oh my emotions felt like floods
but i know i was filled with love
yeah times were rough but mama made a plate that always filled us up
that’s love
and we never missed a meal
black mama grinding hard to pay thе bills
yeah things weren’t pеrfect, trauma came
and i got cycles left to break
but i’m working on em, patience
and my nephew, he the new generation
(chorus)
rise up, young man
you got goals to get to
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
rise up, young man
you got goals to get to
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
(verse 2)
nearly 21 when my nephew had arrived
held him in my arms, barely opened up his eyes
but my life would be changed from the little one
and what a brilliant mind in my sib’s son
oh yes you’re talented, it’s true
but what i love the most is you
and i’m glad that you’re here kid
if somebody knocks you down, here’s an uplift
(chorus)
rise up
young man
you got goals
to get to
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
rise up, young man
you got goals to get to
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
(bridge)
oh young man young man
oh oooo
(chorus)
rise up, young man
you got goals to get to
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
rise up, young man
you can
know that i believe in you
cause our family’s us yeah
cause our family’s us
(outro)
i love you kid
anything you put your mind to, i know you can do
can’t wait to see what you do
