[Hook]
Head of the family
El Padrino
Welcome home to Emory
Let’s get back to this dinero
[Verse 1]
…wanna kidnap wifey
Good luck with that bruh
You must gonna hide your whole family
What you think we wearing black for
Ready for that war
Ready for that war ready
You ain’t ready yo, you radio
You ain’t really ready
Real… chea
Alpo bought his bricks here
Elvis got his records took
It’s like we got our seventh gear
NFL investigations
Oh, don’t make me laugh
FBI investigation
We stood up to that
Facts only
Everything real in my raps only
Every… real in my clique really
Everyone is a movie star you got to film me
La Familia

[Verse 2]
My brothers is my brother like my brother is
My… is my brother
Like my mother kids
Not in just in good times
That’s that sucka…
But it war times
It just what it is
Head of the family
All my… bosses though
Y’all don’t understand we
We talk that… bosses know
Triple… OG
What’s up to my… Juan
Tell these… pull their… skirt down
I could see their ovaries
…snitching switching teams
Out there telling… things
Industry talk behind your back
Ain’t nobody got time for that
Facts only
Everything real in my raps only
Every… real in my clique really
Even the girls keep it two hundred and trilly
It’s la familia
