Family Ties Lyrics by Alexander Charles

Fortune Cookies

2020

Verse 1:
I got this family that I didn’t know existed/
Those whispers I overheard Im just hoping you know I listened/
My missions always promoting this co-existence/
Despite the distance, I can’t wait to meet my sister/
Truth be told i wish I could’ve met you sooner/
I’m tryin’ to forget the past, while Im tryin’ to predict the future/
It kills me I wasn’t there to protect you from all those losers/
It blew my mind when I saw you on the computer/
Im hoping you didn’t notice my ego big as a buddha/
This chip on my shoulder growing, its hard for me to maneuver/
Im losing all my composure I needed to hear your name/
I cried when I heard your voice, our speech is even the same/
See you soon/
Chorus:
I’ll see you soon/
I’ll see you soon/
I’ll see you soon/
(DJ scratches)
Verse 2:
Adoption papers came knocking like hostile neighbors/
Nobody got me remind me of hot potato/
My mom and my pop my savior, they dealt with my wild behavior/
From selling pot to moving out I’ll see you later (wait)/
Thank god for that, still got my back/
Some days I be wildin’ out, some nights Im about to snap/
I know its hereditary/
Im scared of the cemetery/
Im pushing people away/
Im worried I’ll never marry/
Im worried Im out of time/
Im worried my girl leaves/
Im focused on making music/
Im focused on world peace/
(I know you think that don’t matter but)
Chorus 2:
All I ask is, don’t tell me see you soon/
Don’t tell me see you soon/
Make it sooner than later/
Make it sooner than later/
(DJ scratches Outro)
