Lyrics
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first

Ocean view is where it all started
With my forefathers, I wasn't born Roberts
But that's another story we can talk after
I'm not your pastor, I'm the forecaster who saw disaster
Apartheid was hard but we all stronger
Splut us up to see more darkness
Freedom was far but we walked faster
Grew rapidly from an average seed into a family tree
We lived happily in the flats and streets where the gangstas be
A lot of concrete roses, one thing I know is fam can't be chosen
No matter where I live, it's irrelevant I love my relatives
What a combination, multicoloured faces
All blood related yeah my cousins crazy
Ancestors traced me to my birthplace
We shared everything, plus surnames
That's before the apps and the cellphones
I was well known, I used to sell clothes
I can't talk about it cause it's family business
Arabian gangstas and the Christians are my

La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first

I was raised by a single mom
A strong one like Charlize Theron
She couldn't buy me no Billabong
So we didn't always get along
I'm the one the cousins picking on
Fighting then we watched Digimon
They didn't wanna put the TV on
But they love me it's a different bond
It's unfortunate that I saw some kids in the orphanage
They have origins but lost all of it in their coordinates
To not have family is painful, so be grateful
Cause they raised you from the cradle till you were stable
They mend broken hearts and used gelekalas for old photographs
And when you broke apart and got no regards it really broke you hard
Because there isn't a difference, look at the lineage
There's significance, the little distances
Eids and Christmases, family visited
They will benefit when they've inherited, it's my

La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
La familia (family)
Cradle to the graveyard, death and birth
Everything is secondary, family first

Family, family, family, family
Family, family, family, family
Family, family, family
The children of today must venture into the past to see how
Far the struggle comes along from their parents and their
Parents' parents, and then they will appreciate the life
That they are living today, even greater, and then appreciate
Their parents even greater, to think the sacrifice that they
Have made to put them on a pedestal where they are today
