Let me tell you about
My fam —
No names needed;
Y’all know who you are.
They keep me straight
On my path that
God intended me to travel
On to achieve my goal
Of being the best man
That I can be without
Any regrets or questions
Of what ifs and maybes.
They keep me grounded
And make sure that I sway
With the punches that life
Throws at me every second.
They guide me through rough
Ocean tides and into and outta
Ports like little tugboats guiding
Ships like dogs on leashes.
They pick my ass up off
The ground every time I fall
And dust me off and they send
Me off with a hug and a kiss
And they say “go get ‘em kiddo”
With a smile because they know
That I can do whatever I want
If I just put my heart and soul into it
Because I’m capable of so much
More than what my mind tells me.
My heart and soul cry with every
Kind word, words of love and support
Because I know my fam means
Nothing but the best for me and
My life and they want to see me
Grow as a man because we’re fam.
Have a seat
And gather around,
Let me tell me
About my fam.
They’re the best thing that
Happened to me and my life
Because I don’t know where
I’d be right now without them.
