Protect My Family

[C-Rayz Walz]

I'ma protect my family, that's my word

My wife, child, my dogs, cat and my birds

I got a happy house home, you can't disturb

You might clapped in the dome, clap, not you herb

I'm walkin these dogs, puttin in work, got the coroner locked

C'mon dogs don't be a jerk, and have to bark at the glock

My brother got his spot down the whole, a hop skip and a cold

I'm from the old school fam, I don't lock my door

Ain't no more arguin, negative screamin and fightin

All that's gonna do is leave the little residents frightened

I bring home groceries, pack bags, stack cash

Stay gracious, use patience, don't get mad

And I'ma be the dad my father couldn't be cause he died

One of the many reason I've cried, could it be {?}

I take Bacardi shots, cause the youth is illin

But I'm +Ravipops+, that's my excuse for livin

Forgivin myself, for not learnin a trade in school

Now my eyes stay red like I just came out the pool

I want my son to learn to build write and read from me

And not have cocaine plans with weed money

[Chorus - repeat 2X]

I'ma protect my family, that's my word

Livin on the corner left that life on the curb

I'ma protect my family, that's my word

(No need to get around I got that good stuff at home)

[Killa Kal]

I'ma protect my fam, is what this jam be about

My sons, my daughter, and definitely my spouse

Cause when the goin got tough, she got rough, no doubt

All you chickenheads cluckin, break out

Since July 4th 1993 there's been a change in me

My baby boy Khalil, made a man of me

Made daddy think, to stop hustlin in these streets

Make daddy think, would I live to see my son reach 3

Even though, daddy didn't have a daddy there

Daddy's gonna make sure, you never have a care in this world

Now I got a baby girl

Born a day after my birthday, Lena changed my world

And put my life, into a proper perspective

And now respectin women is my only objective

See, I used to treat women real bad

And now I feel bad because my baby girl could get had

[Chorus]

[interlude]

Yo, I'm not tryin to die in the street

But, my people need somethin to eat

And, I'm just tryin to feed my fam

Straight up, I need cash in hand

[C-Rayz Walz]

Protect my family, my political statement

When it's time to get foul, my whole style's flagrant

When my little girl cries, it's a thunderstorm

Beacuse of, raw talent, my son was born

They say God made man (when) man made God

(Then) man made child with no job, life's hard

Hard men try to be men, steal and rob

Damn, man with no plan behind steel bars and guards

Now the next man's doin it right, doin ya wife

Doin ya son's homework, man he's doin ya life

You ruined your plight, it coulda been a walk in the park

Or a talk in the dark, now it's a union of stripes

I'm like protect your family, no matter who you are

It all comes down, to the sun moon and stars

If you know these degrees then you knowledge me pah

If you think it's all a joke well hardy, hardy har
