Why do kids gotta be the anchor
For parents to stay above water
Cause momma loved daddy
But daddy ain’t father so momma left daddy
And daddy left momma
Son doesn’t know why momma was sadden
He see momma crying he asking what happen
Ma why you crying what makes you so sadden
Cause daddy was slacking cause daddy be rapping
Daddy was up in Chicago the land
He come pick up son every now and then
When daddy see son he call him Jsteezzy
Then momma stop crying cause dad came to see me
Momma tell daddy take care of my son
Daddy ask Jalen aint we gon have fun
I smile so big cause daddy my hero
I tied up two people but string be so feeble
Ties I’m talking bout my family ties
I tried ohh I did try
But when you was born into madness
There isn’t to fixing what happens
Just pray you don’t be too damaged
When I was younger I ain’t understand pain
Why I ain’t see grandparents in the same place
Ain’t figure out till I was like 8
Back in the day they used to be married that love at first sight
But grandma not happy cause they always fight
So grandma left granddaddy got on a flight
My momma was younger she prolly don’t know it
My grandma was hurting but prolly ain’t show it
Grandmomma tell me that life really bogus
But life really long no time for that low shit
Got married in 20s divorced in ha 30s now grandmomma 60
She happy I love it
Granddaddy struggle with life he do show it
I really don’t like him don’t want him to know it
But I just can’t stand it when family in pain
I want to be hero but gone is that string
He called me JJ when I was like 8
He do got my number but never call me
He wanted to know me
At one time felt the same
But dark days came
He went MIA, I really ain’t seen him since I was 14
Turing 17 bout to graduate
I love him for real don’t wanna be distant
This distance shows glimpses of family resentment
Ties I’m talking bout my family ties
I tried ohh I did try
But when you was born into madness
There isn’t to fixing what happens
Just pray you don’t end up too damaged
Ties I’m talking bout my family ties
I tried ohh I did try
But when you was born into madness
There isn’t to fixing what happens
Just pray you don’t end up too damaged
Daddy had a son at 19
Daddy had the world up in his hands
Daddy had dreams daddy was rappin
But daddy wanted to chase his so momma did let him
But daddy had children wit multiple women
I got like 4 sisters 2 brothers what happened
When daddy got shot, when daddy did pass
Had one on the way more kids with no dad
My grandma the anchor for all of the siblings
Grandmomma struggle to help daddy children
Grandma was fighting for shit on the side
See grandma was fighting for all of our lives
But grandma fell ill see grandma fell sick
The ties between siblings had start to loosen
And Jalen ain’t seen his 3 sisters and his lil brother since bout 2010 since I was bout 6
Wait thought there was 4 what happened to 1
Her name is Alona we 5 years apart
I do have her number but be scared to call it
I love my lil sis do she love me regardless
Battles for brother I know I do love her
Then why I am I scared to make sure covered
At least say hello, like how are you doing
The battle for love and I am just losing
My other 3 sisters I love em to death
And if I do not see em my biggest regret
Could walk down the street could walk in a target
She ring up my shit and I walk away harmless
Hope one day we can meet in real life
Get more closer together to see eye to eye
I just wrote this song ain’t write a damn lie
Tryna keep strings tightened family ties
Ties I’m talking bout my family ties
I try ohh I did try
But when you was born into madness
There isn’t to fixing what happens
Just pray you don’t be too damaged
