Family Tree Lyrics - Iicons - Naughty By Nature

Sometimes because of jealousy and the intent to demise 

Certain factions have to be forbidden or destroyed 

Fire has to be sent to the poisoned forest 

With the root of fresh trees planted elsewhere 

Only then will you obtain a wilderness 

That cannot be penetrated, petrified family tree 

See what started as a family forest 

Got cut to a family tree with the limbs 

And the leaves looking' at the world for answers 

The world points to the sun and the sun says 

The answers in me, so I search through the darkness 

Can't find the key so we locked in the land of the lost 

Lord, please tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me 

So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees

Many minds always meet with pens and sheets 

Close my eyes, think what next on my rhymes 

See this face in ink, I'm havin' visions of wisdom 

Dreamin' 'bout my own ending 

Am I seein' death as freedom and livin' as prison 

My son didn't have a daddy to shape him so 

God bless him with a daddy to save him 

Yeah I raise him and pay some attention 

He talked and he listened to reach him and teach him 

Before I'm gone from existence 

Teach him 'bout the foes, the hos and all opponents 

Those that always talk 'bout love but never showed it 

Those who had the chances to stand and always blowed it 

Those that set you up by the hour to steal your moment 

Pac the word is you ain't there so fuck the rumor 

I'll get a pound of that shit from Bermuda 

Photos 

And meet you in Cuba 

Fucked up on Larusa no doubt, I know the locale 

If they gotta born you, I'm gonna mourne you 'til I join you 

See what started as a family forest 

Got cut to a family tree with the limbs 

And the leaves looking' at the world for answers 

The world points to the sun and the sun says 

The answers in me, so I search through the darkness 

Can't find the key so we locked in the land of the lost 

Lord, please tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me 

So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees 

Uhh and now I know I got some family 

Who missed me from the heart, forever we're apart 

Just because I'm nothin' and you abuse me and use me 

Now you wanna try to come bruise me 

And even though maybe were in there 

Farther than it once was I know family don't always 

Mean that they blood 'cause some people just 

Don't give a nigga what some people tried to use my name 

So all the fat we had to cut and I'm still 

Walking with my six amp strut 

Urban eyes see through camouflage 

And now I know who's butt 

So when I sent you tried to play me 

All of a sudden now I'm shady 

Maybe deep down in my heart 

Never trust you from the start 

Never hoped you'd be my homie, don't come 'round my way 

And if we never speak again, it's got to be that way 

This millennium, we'll be spankin' your heiny 

Remind thee naughty invented family of the 90's 

See what started as a family forest 

Got cut to a family tree with the limbs 

And the leaves looking' at the world for answers 

The world points to the sun and the sun says 

The answers in me, so I search through the darkness 

Can't find the key so we locked in the land of the lost 

Lord, please tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me 

So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees 

Life doesn't end when the sweat dries 

A time when a nickle cost a dollar 

When you rise your chest dies 

My dynasty many fear it cos' I'm near it 

Ancient Egyptian scriptures fitted in through hyroglyphics 

Motherfuckers try to touch my mental state 

Niggas smile up in your face and then they infiltrate 

So it seems nowadays that the only plan 

To get my people help my people get a load of land 

And Im'ma see it if I have to kill some shit 

To make my family tree a motherfucking wilderness 

See a black man standin' on the promised land 

Since they broke every promise I devised a plan this 

Black this and black that crap is gettin' touchy 

Any black hat that cross my path, I call him lucky 

Those who turn. they back with they fears 

And try to before they can see us 

They gonna need us sweet Jesus 

See what started as a family forest 

Got cut to a family tree with the limbs 

And the leaves looking' at the world for answers 

The world points to the sun and the sun says 

The answers in me, so I search through the darkness 

Can't find the key so we locked in the land of the lost 

Lord, please tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me 

So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees 

See what started as a family forest 

Got cut to a family tree with the limbs 

And the leaves looking' at the world for answers 

The world points to the sun and the sun says 

The answers in me, so I search through the darkness 

Can't find the key so we locked in the land of the lost 

Lord, please tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me 

So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees
