Текст песни: Family + перевод

This is a note to my pops

This is a letter to Dad

Just want say I love you a lot

Thanks for all the time you could never get back

It made me a man cause I live with the realest

You gave up your music so I can hear mine

And look where it got me, they chantin' our name and they screamin' our lines

Drove me to all of those practices, games

Just me and you we’s the only white boys

Thought you was a cop ‘til they seen I had a shot

Then they like, «that's your pops?» Oh you look just like boy

Taught me this world don’t hold your hands, you gon' have to throw ‘em if you

gotta

And all this nervous shit you couldn’t relate to it but still made me feel like

I’d conquer

And I know you like to keep your emotions buried, I know you’re scared that

your time has passed

But you been drummin' in my rhymes, the percussion in each line is a function

of your time as Dad, this my Jazz

And I swear to God that the two of us gon' pay off these student,

plus before the Knicks stop makin' fools of us

But see to pay you back, I couldn’t do enough

So this one right here

This for da family, this for da family

This for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all, cause a y’all, cause a y’all I did shit that I can’t

believe

So this for da family, cause y’all made a man of me

So this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

Said this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all that I did some shit that I can’t believe

Cause y’all made a man of me, cause y’all made a man of me

This is a note to my moms

This is a letter to Christine

Just want say our love is still strong

Even though our record ain’t pristine

Cause you always there for me when I needed you

And you gon' always care for me I believe in you

Night, evening, day, Miss P.T.A

If we ain’t have a team, then you would make it

And you was there for me to answer all those texts when my anxiety I couldn’t

take it

And you taught me to relax a little

But you also taught me how to blaze a trail

Taught me how to make shit happen and I take no shit

If we gotta, we gon' raise some hell

And that’s us and I’m sorry that the house ain’t clean and my shoes everywhere,

that don’t mean I don’t love you

And I want you to know I don’t think I’m above you

I know you can’t always express yourself how you want to

But we all got flaws and I know me, myself, I got a bundle

But I’mma always be a son that try to pay you back, see that’s all I wan' do

And you said don’t get comfortable bein' uncomfortable, shit, and yo,

that was the truth

So I pushed myself out of the house and I’m not a recluse and shit,

that’s cause of you

And I know I’m hard on you, I complain a lot but yo, without you I wouldn’t be

here

And we both got quick tempers but it was your patience that help me beat fear

so thank you

This for da family, this for da family

This for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all, cause a y’all, cause a y’all I did shit that I can’t

believe

So this for da family, cause y’all made a man of me

So this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

Said this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all that I did some shit that I can’t believe

Cause y’all made a man of me, cause y’all made a man of me

This is a letter to Mia

This is a note to my sis

I don’t like hyperbole but feel like I don’t know if someone better exists

Lean on you so much it’s a miracle you haven’t toppled

And I know the world can look tough through those Marlons; my big-brother

goggles

And I know you lookin' for answers but I know you can do it all witcho eyes

closed

And I know I talk about me all the time and I’m sorry I’m like that

It’s just you the only one really know me, everyone else around me feel really

phony

You can tell me shut up, you don’t really owe me your ear but you never do fail

to loan me and I love you for that

I know you get nervous like I did and I didn’t want you feel that

All of them times when you was young and mom and dad was fightin',

I tried to run you from that

And I always tried to be like Parent #3

But the truth is that I’ve looked up to you since like 2013 and what you come

to be and how you love for free

I might be the most famous but you the best of us

I want you to take that as pressure cause life is ‘bout who you are and what

you do and you are great and you can do whatever you want and that shit ain’t

true for everyone but you, so you got it

And I know I like to play devil’s advocate but I’m your advocate ‘til I’m bodied

Love you

This for da family, this for da family

This for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all, cause a y’all, cause a y’all I did shit that I can’t

believe

So this for da family, cause y’all made a man of me

So this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

Said this for da fam, this for da, this for da, this for da family

It’s all cause a y’all that I did some shit that I can’t believe

Cause y’all made a man of me, cause y’all made a man of me
