She was feeling you tide-burn
Cause her family was wearing on her nerves
She was tired of fighting and feeling frustrated

Finding it hard to relate to those of whom she was related
You know we all sometimes, say things we don't mean
But that don't mean that we're not still family


Generation to generation it gets passed on
And then one day, those who would passing well they passed on

Pulling back the covers, her heart will start to shudder when she realizes how deep it all went
Trying to forgive what was said, but was never really meant


Well you know we all sometimes, say things we don't mean.
But that don't mean we're not still family.
Pull out of the shadows and find out that eventually

It's all bad, it's all good baby can't you see
That we all, well we all, well we all are still family


I was there from the moment that you were born
And I've loved you since I heard your first cries
And I know we won't always be getting along

But I promise you that I will always try
You know we all sometimes, say things we don't mean
But that don't mean that we're not still family


You know we all sometimes, say things we don't mean
But that don't mean that we're not still family


You know we all sometimes, say things we don't mean
But that don't mean that we're not still family
