"It takes a lot to get up to start workin', like again on stage

Because then your mind ain't there, and you're tryna go for it, and greed... is a bitch Greed is like 'Go ahead, do it they offer you so much money'

And you're greedy and then your manager is larger than anything, right?

It's like 'But you're not like that, you don't wanna rip people off

Tryna do this and... You go out there and you make an ass of yourself...

Embarrass your friends and...

Hold your dick"

For my friends never been more grateful

For my family forever stay faithful

On everything there's nothing tasteful

But i know that momma held it down, and she always kept the plates full

Never knew my father well 'fore his last day

I thought that shit'll fuck me up in one or two ways

By the time I paid attention it was too late

And it wasn't hard to learn to get my shoes laced

'Cause my bro, my other literal half

He really taught me how to always keep my foot on the gas

And mow the lawn 'fore I ever lay* a foot in the grass

Blast the Chronic 1 and 2 in the back, but now it's gone in a flash

It's sad as a motherfucker, I know

But man you'll always be the baddest motherfucker I know

Even though he's dug deep down, I know that he's still around

Watching from the sidelines, and I'm betting he's still proud

Wish we'd gather 'round and take a family picture

Like the old days, now, I look at family pictures

All alone thinking where I belong is back home when the family miss you

But I'm tryna get this bag home

If you doubt I'm coming back then you're dead wrong

All I'm doing now is chicken scratchin' sad songs

'Cause they love a another sad song

Right?

So, we parted our ways, it took a couple of planes to meet a couple of real ones

From the same old shithole, fresh outta water on the same ol' fish pole

Now we share a much better zip code, commence to get spliffs rolled

But then it was three, the number went up to five, next thing i know it was six

Then one of them just left, they had to deal with they shit

With one of them, I couldn't believe i got myself in this shit, uh-oh

Now there was four of us, then it was three again, this shit make no sense

Gone in a blink, I should be seeing a shrink, or I'm just way too pissed

One of my biggest fears is not getting over this shit

Got the memories but, there ain't that many of us

In my mind, shit, there's always gon' be plenty of us

And to y'all i got nothing to say

But i'm really tryna show you way more than these words convey (I swear)

I never thought I'd take this many family pictures

But you only wanna take 'em when the family gets you

I try to stay away from family shit, because it's all fun and games 'till the family diss you

Now this shit is out here looking like a family picture

Like i'm tryna make sure the entire squad remember

So, hurry up and take the family picture

'Fore I lose another motherfucking family member

Woah
