Fiend in the Family Lyrics by Sho (TX)

Trouble Man

1993

[Verse One: Sho]
Mr. Mr. Dope fiend when will you ever quit?
The dollar for the family on some crack we ain't eating jack
You used to be rolling in bucks
Now you standing on the cut with your pants falling off your butt
Your face is all sucked in
And you got so thin you'd blow away in the strong wind
You always got your hands or your mouth stuck out
Like it's my fault the crack got you strung out
And when you get some money, you're off in a flash
But when you're broke I can't seem to get rid of yo ass
Mr. Dope fiend just bringing me down
He like a cat see I feed him so he just keep hanging around
And I'm saying to myself the crack'll never get me
But it's just as bad cause Mr. Dope fiend's in my family
[Hook:]
Mr. Mr. Dope fiend
I got a dope fiend in my family
In my family
[Verse Two: Sho]
Mr. Dope fiend can't be left alone
I come home and everything'll be gone
I gotta watch this, I gotta watch that
Cause he'll pawn my stuff for some crack
If it was somebody off the street a murder be committed
But it's my family so I guess I gotta deal wit it
And that's kinda hard to swallow
When you working like a dog and they smoking every damn dollar
What's up with this crack clique?
It's making brothers beat they mom's and make sisters turn tricks
I never understood and I'll never understand
To comprehend I guess you gotta be on rocks man
The crack making 'em lie, steal and kill
Make 'em think about the high before they think about the life bill
I guess it's just a sign of the times
Brother's are dying we in the graveyard frame of mind
The crack got the fiends weak
They won't take a bath, they won't eat they won't sleep
I wrote this story for the people who suffering G
Going through hell day to day with a fiend in the family
[Hook 2:]
Mr. Mr. Dope fiend
Mr. Mr. Dope fiend
I got a dope fiend in my family
Uh, Mr. Dope fiend you take my rings, my chains
All my remains it's a damn shame how you play them games
Mr. Dope fiend
I got a dope fiend in my family
In my family
Got a dope fiend in my family, it's a damn shame
[Verse Three: Sho]
Mr. Dope fiend's an open and shut case
I done talked to the man until I'm blue in the face
But all the talking in the world won't help
Unless a person want to help they self
He in his own little world G
He don't care about himself how the hell he gon' care about me
It ain't a minute that the clock don't tick
That Mr. Dope fiend ain't thinking about the next hit
Now the fiend can be your uncle or daughter
They make you want to give up but blood is thicker than water
And you'll go crazy trying to change they life
Have you up all night like you were smoking the pipe
I hope he straighten up before he died in them streets G
He out there bad but family is family
[Hook 3:]
Mr. Mr. Dope fiend
Ah Mr. Mr. Dope fiend
I got a dope fiend in my family
Mr. Dope fiend you stole my car pawned my VCR
But it's okay cause I know who you are
Mr. Dope fiend
I got a dope fiend in my family
I got a dope fiend in my family
In my family
Uh Mr. Dope fiend you took my chains, my rings
All my remains, it's a damn shame
Uh Mr. Dope fiend
It's a damn shame
I got a fiend in my family
