Whānau

(álbum: Where Do Birds Go At Night? - 2023)

It's been a minute since I've slowed down
To see what's going on with ya
Felt like it was just yesterday
We were dreaming about us growing up

Freestyles at your fam's place
We were sneaking out the house and get faded
Fifteen, acting crazy
All we wanted from this life was to make it
Now we're here

Now, I'ma always have your back 'cause you have mine
No matter where we're at, I'ma make time
You should never feel like you took the backseat
Anytime you need an ear, just hit my line

Keep it one hundred
You're my brother
Through the ups and the downs I'ma love ya
I'ma be there for you, you gon' be there for me
You gon' always be my family

Deeper than the ocean
Thicker than your skin or my bones
Deeper than devotion
You're never out here on your own
And you should already know
There's no hesitation
From the womb to the tomb
I'ma keep whānau for you

It's been a minute since I've talked to you
Since you've found you far in love
I ain't mad at you
I'm so proud of the man you've become

So young when your queen passed
Ain't no fun when you gotta grow up so fast
But my fam was your fam from the jump, bro
I told you I had your back

Now, I'ma always have your back 'cause you have mine
No matter where we're at, I'ma make time
You should never feel like you took the backseat
Anytime you need an ear, just hit my line

Keep it one hundred
You're my brother
Through the ups and the downs I'ma love ya
I'ma be there for you, you gon' be there for me
You gon' always be my family

Deeper than the ocean
Thicker than your skin or my bones
Deeper than devotion
You're never out here on your own
And you should already know
There's no hesitation
From the womb to the tomb
I'ma keep whānau for you

That's my day one
That's my rider
