Chorus:
Cause it’s a family affair don’t mean you always should care
Especially when they negative leaving you in despair
Parents competing with children acting like one of their peers
Simply rejecting the fact that they’re the reason they’re here
And when the parents are old demand their children to share
All of their time and their money because they’re thinking it’s fair
As they provided you life it’s only right you should care
Regardless whether or not they raised you and they were there

1st Verse:
So we’re related by blood so by default we should love
Taught from the very beginning to never place one above
The structure rooted from birth placing your family first
Embrace the good and the bad never to question the worth
Because regardless the matter or situation occurred
Family will always be there your problems never deferred
And when it’s all said and done family is solely the one
That will protect you from all encounters surely to come
But is this always the truth?
Does family always come through?
And if your answer is yes you need to show us the proof
You see it time after time portray to be by your side
You put in all of your trust they stab you right in the spine
Whether you’re blood or you’re not people will naturally plot
And if it’s family it’s worse considered all that you got
You tend to put up with more absorb their negative ways
When this is counterproductive and we continue to pay

Chorus

2nd Verse:
We bring a child in the world whether we meant it to be
Children in need of our nurture dependent naturally
And this remains through their youth attentiveness is the key
We as their parents provide but you continue to see
Parents competing with children over affection and love
Expecting children to give to go beyond and above
To make them feel of importance demand emotion and praise
But when the effort is short parents confused and enraged
Why are we losing perspective of the relations we have
Children did not make the choice to be alive or to ask
For their particular parents ones who will love them to death
But we expect this of children illogic thought at its best
All we can do as a parent give children all that we have
And if it’s love they return we should be grateful and glad
But even if they reject it never acknowledge our effort
Know that we gave it our best to make their life for the better

Chorus

3rd Verse:
Parents are elder in age living the rest of their days
Reflecting life and the moments that will define them in ways
In which entitlement surfaces and reality strays
Thinking the world is indebted children specific should pay
Make sure they’re living in comfort no matter what it will take
Whether distributing money or the providing of space
Presenting children with problems in which they never should face
Parents took care of the children so there should be no debate
But hold up, wait just a second why don’t we cut to the chase
Parents suppose to provide for all the children they make
So why expect in return for children somehow to take
Their time and money exclusively and devote to their sake
Especially if they’re children who act as parents as well
They’re now responsible for children so why should they fail
If children show no support to parents elder in age
They have the right to this choice no matter what people say

Chorus
