Family Ties Stefflon Don (Ft. Donae'O & Dutchavelli)

[Verse 1: Stefflon Don]
I was never taught to be great
Seen a lot a heat but never had a fireplace
See my mother get beat and my brother turn tape
I was just a little kid, wishing he just had a cape
I'm wishing we could just flee
Screaming Mommy don't stay, but Mommy wouldn't leave
All she did was call the Jake's next day
He was free 'cause she always shut the case
She blamed his actions on the weed that my daddy would lace
Every time my mom flies she would always put on weight
Mommy moving bricks yeah she in and out of state
Somebody did her dirty, she was held by the gate
She was looking at ten but the lawyer beat the case
By the grace and the power and the mercy of the state
Made a lot of money, but she never owned a safe
Trips to the cash point, all I did was break
Hoping that my mother will be happy for a day
Cos' we never had light daddy never had to stay
But we celebrated when they sent him to J.A
Nobody never liked that nigga like the Jake's why God
Didn't strike that nigga on the plane
Never smoked cigs, never smoked MaryJane
But I get high off the thoughts in my brain
Never smoked weed, never smoked MaryJane
But I get high off the thoughts in my brain
