010 This is family business
011 And this is for the family that can't be with us
012 And this is for my cousin locked down, know the answer's in us
013 That's why I spit it in my songs so sweet
014 Like a photo of your granny's picture
015 Now that you're gone it hit us
016 Super hard on Thankgiving and Christmas, this can't be right
017 Yeah you heard the track I did man, this can't be life
018 Somebody please say grace so I can save face
019 And have a reason to cover my face
020 I even made you a plate, soul food, know how Granny do it
021 Monkey bread on the side, know how the family do it
022 When I brought it why did the guard have to look all through it?
023 As kids we used to laugh
024 Who knew that life would move this fast?
025 Who knew I'd have to look at you through a glass?
026 And look, tell me you ain't did it, then you ain't did it
027 And if you did, then that's family business
028

050 You know that one auntie, you don't wanna be rude
051 But every holiday nobody eatin' her food
052 And you don't wanna stay there cuz them your worst cousins

065 [Verse 3: Kanye West]
066 I woke up early this mornin' with a new state of mind
067 A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns
068 Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to God
069 And keep your face to the risin' sun
070 All my niggas from the Chi, that's my family dog
071 And my niggas ain't my guys, they my family dog
072 I feel like one day you'll understand me dog
073 You can still love your man and be manly dog
074 You ain't got to get heated at every house warmin'
075 Sittin' here, grillin' people like George Foreman
076 Why Uncle Ray and Aunt Shiela always performin'?
077 The second she storms out then he storms in
078 Y'all gon' sit down, have a good time this reunion
079 And drink some wine like Communion
080 And act like everything fine and if it isn't
081 We ain't lettin' everybody in our family business
