[Intro sample] Still I try to be what you want me to be [Chorus] Yo, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And every time I rock it's for the family You can never say I'm not up for the family Uh, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And I'mma keep improving for the family And I'mma keep pursuing for the family I be on stage and they be yellin' out In every city with me they be reppin' like They hear K'Valentine and they supportin' like And all you hatin' muthaf**as y'all be watchin' like I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for my family And every time I rock it's for my family So you can never say you not up for my family [Verse 1] Yo, been doin' this for a couple years fluently Won't let none of these jealous n***as ruin me I'm here to kick some knowledge cause it's truancy And I keep spittin' that real sh** fluency At the end of the day, the only matter is the family You wanna make me angry, get combative with the family And then you'll have to see me get combative as I can be Witnesses they run behind me, comin' at you like a stampede Uh, when I was down they was there for me Never left me alone because they cared for me Uh, and I'mma always give it back to 'em Nope, I never ever turn my back to 'em I wanna raise my gla** and give a toast to 'em I hope that they forgive me for my past doings I got some family that haven't spoken in a minute It's ok if I don't see you I still love you from a distance [Chorus] Yo, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And every time I rock it's for the family You can never say I'm not up for the family Uh, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And I'mma keep improving for the family And I'mma keep pursuing for the family I be on stage and they be yellin' out In every city with me they be reppin' like They hear K'Valentine and they supportin' like And all you hatin' muthaf**as y'all be watchin' like I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for my family And every time I rock it's for my family So you can never say you not up for my family [Verse 2] My grandma on my mama's side told I'll never fly, never fly But my mama always told me I'm forever fly Cause she told me if I'm breathin' then I better try They I better fly So I release my feelin' in my music In the songs and the tapes, put my words in these verbs How I'm heard in my wake, let it out, let it go, let it be No mistakes, no mistakes I need my family cause they lift me up And if I ever get to trippin' then they pick me up And we stay exchanging favors, do the same for them I'm only gonna care if it pertains to them I represent the family, ain't no shame in them Some things around me change and I'm the same to them I'm always gon' protect them if you aim at them So the best decision for you is refrain from them [Chorus] Yo, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And every time I rock it's for the family You can never say I'm not up for the family Uh, I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for the family And I'mma keep improving for the family And I'mma keep pursuing for the family I be on stage and they be yellin' out In every city with me they be reppin' like They hear K'Valentine and they supportin' like And all you hatin' muthaf**as y'all be watchin' like I gotta get it for the family And everything I do is for my family And every time I rock it's for my family So you can never say you not up for my family
