Family Tree Lyrics

[Chorus]
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
No bad vibes, just good energy
If you know about them, then you know about me
So, that's my family tree
That's my family tree
From primary right through secondary
If you know about them, then you know about me, yeah

[Verse 1]
Ten years deep and still the same company
I ain't never gonna change my company

Mum said "Son, be careful of your company"
Because your company shows who you are
I went from nothing to something and still ain't changed
Still gettin' on the bus and the train
Still livin' in the same old place
And still thank God for every breath I take


[Refrain]
Like, Mitcham, where I grew up
Before I leave my home, I do my shoes up
No spuds, just hugs, show my crew love
When we roll to a show, we don't queue up
They wanna act like we're friends and they know us
Quick drop from Nike, yeah, they love us
You're the type of person I trust
No questions asked, you just always show up (Woah)
[Chorus]
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
No bad vibes, just good energy
If you know about them, then you know about me
So, that's my family tree
That's my family tree
From primary right through secondary
If you know about them, then you know about me, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da


[Verse 2]
If I'm eatin', my people are eatin' too
If it's beef, my people are beefin' too
If I'm dyin', my people are dyin' too
I ain't got time, but I'm tryna make time for you
I don't speak anymore, I just make moves
I got my family's back for anything they wanna do
So we stay strong every single time when our highs and the lows
Come, I promise that we're always gonna get through
[Refrain]
Mitcham, where I grew up (Where I grew up)
Before I leave my home, I do my shoes up (Do shoes up)
No spuds, just hugs, show my crew love (Crew love)
When we roll to a show, we don't queue up
They wanna act like we're friends and they know us
Quick drop from Nike, yeah, they love us (Love us)
You're the type of person I trust
No questions asked, you just always show up

[Chorus]
That's my family tree (That's my family tree, yeah)
That's my family tree
No bad vibes, just good energy (Just good energy, oh)
If you know about them, then you know about me
So, that's my family tree (That's my family tree)
That's my family tree
From primary right through secondary
If you know about them, then you know about me, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
[Bridge]
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
Say, that's my family tree
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
That's my family tree
If you know about them, then you know about me, yeah

[Outro]
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da

About

Genius Annotation

Ramz has made this song to say one principal message: he will always stay with his true friends no matter how famous he gets. To him, they aren’t just his friends but his family and no amount of fame or money will change that. Throughout the song, Ramz describes how true his friends are; how they do not decieve him for money or a ‘drop from Nike’ but they love him for who he is. Ramz also talks about how he stays true to his ends (Mitcham) where he grew up and just because he is earning a lot of money, he still hasn’t changed and will not change. That is the key message of the song.
He will go far in life and never stop believing on himself be strong Ramz
