"Family"



[Chorus: Mystikal & Girl]



Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from right chere)



Where's ya family?, mighty family,

Where's ya family?, mighty family (from right chere)

[repeat]



[Verse 1: Mystikal & Female singer]



I heat up the way coffee be

Tasty like pastry

Got mo' flavors than parsely

With 9 aunties and 2 uncles

I got a lot of cousins, so watch how you talk to me

Good ol' places, good ol' times, doing good ol' thangs

That was just the good ol' days,

most of my people still look the same

All though we deep in the numbers,

Our feelings is close as the lotto ya heard me

We originated in Louisiana way back in the 1930's

On the farm in the son of mister and misses Joyner and Mary Tyler

Hooked up with they daughter,

Daughter Josephine the difference do you know what I mean

She was on the cotton field

He was on the farm where the cows get killed

Then they moved off the plantation

Then??? came in a few mo' years

First came Rosa Lee, then Lord June Bug, then Anna Lee

Then Louise and Alberta, then my mama came who they call Marie

Without a breather, um, here come Mary Alice, and Linda

Po' Grandma stayed bare foot, pregnant, and always baring

Don't worry be happy, whatever we got we was glad that we had it

After that, here come the last three, (Who was?)

Loyce, Alan, and Kathy



[Chorus: Mystikal & Female singer]



Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from right chere)



Where's ya family?, mighty family,

Where's ya family?, mighty family (from right chere)

[repeat]

[Verse 3: Mystikal]



Now that you know about my family ties,

and my family history, and my family size

I done took ya back five generations and broke it down for ya,

Now haven't I?

From greatgrandparents to grandparents,

Mama's and daddy's and Uncle's and Aunties

To all of my in-law'es, nana's pa raisers and nephews and niece's

From moma's and papa's, stomach still growing so the number increases

From sisters and brothers, baby daddy's,

baby mama's, branch cousins and play cousins

So watch how you look at me,

You never know who I'm kind to when you pasting

If you ain't in ya own back yard

better be careful coz we just might ax ya



[Chorus: Mystikal & Female singer]



Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from here)

Tell me where you from round? (I'm from right chere)



Where's ya family?, mighty family,

Where's ya family?, mighty family (from right chere)

[repeat]
