Yeah

Yes you rain's in and my silence and have yeah

That I

That I baby

That I tear

Yeah uh

Alright it's nothin' before the family

Nothin' before the love that was brought from my Aunt Tammy

Nothin' before the love which I found from this pen and pad

Nothin' like when someone loves you back Teddy Pendergrass

Nothin' like the love of when you holdin' your first child

Nothin' like the love of when you witness they first smile

Nothin' like collard greens

Nothin' like cabbage that's special-made from your Aunt D

Nothin' like you hangin' with your uncles and aunties

Nothin' like your favorite cousin who just got out of jail

Remember when the family came together to make bail

These moments are priceless they cannot be bought uh

The real is instilled inside you it cannot be taught uh

I needed a new reminder of things that are most important

Very few events I ever put above mic recordin'

I missed the graduations

I missed all the birthday parties and baby dedications

I missed Aunt Lucia May's funeral Lord forgive me

I was at the met and afterparty with Robyn Fenty

I was out networkin'

Never gon' be perfect I'll emerge to my best version

Trip to find myself let's just call it an excursion real

Learned the harder way that more riches are less worth it

Lost souls sold for a bargain I just purchased

Nothin' above love nothin' above forgiveness

Nothin' above the family this is already written

Nothin' comes before the memories that we cherish deeply

Nothin' comes before phone calls grandma gave me weekly

Nothin' before the family material is temporary

Nothin' before the family yeah
