(Verse one)

Uh

Fruits of my labor

Kahoots wit my neighbors

Every time my bitch made a scene

She'd go outside cuz i hate it

Think it stem from a holiday I was maybe

12, watching momma and daddy storm out wit they voices raising

Divorce would of probably worked in they favor

But them older generations did not believe in no break ups

Thats probably why I stuck wit a bitch I was dating

Accommodating her flagerent fouls talking down her behaviors

Poppa addicted to the hiatus

So I'm positive I'll die alone living inside my '80s

Its funny

Story I was 20 and visiting Vegas

Fff so many shots I remember I said I was nеver dranking

Cuz the outcome was dangеrous

And my sister became a victim of baring every pain that my family had ever came with

Still suprised I ain't carry over it's anger

But I questioned my emotions so much I felt like a stranger

(Hook)

The apple dont fall too far from the tree

Somebody tell Johnny to pick up the seeds

'Notha family member we putting to bed

Right before he went to heaven he slipped on a branch

Right before he went to heaven he slipped on a branch

Really, we was stumped wasn't given a chance

Somebody tell Johnny to pick up the seeds

The apple dont fall too far from the tree

(Verse two)

Fruits of my labor

Roots of me native

Did I come from Africa

Was here for they stole the nation

And gave us misinformation

Erased us from pages and burned the spaces

Until I see changes I believe that every caucasion racist

My aunty in anguish

Reading the news about her son case and

Like most them days to predict whats happened man I'd never say this

But then again violence do arise in the conversations

The men be the anchors suffer daily women enablers

Uncle on waivers, his routine was a beer and some cable

I'm sure what he watch is what he adopt if his mental able

I think thats why my family feud because he loved his game shows

We try to rebuild the relation still but won't let the pain go

I call my people once a week I kno the shit is weak

They wanna kno wuts on my mind but i dont find the time to speak

But I make sure I hug my nephew and I hug my niece

Realizing that none of my uncles keep in touch wit me

(Hook)

The apple dont fall too far from the tree

Somebody tell Johnny to pick up the seeds

'Notha family member we putting to bed

Right before he went to heaven he slipped on a branch

Right before he went to heaven he slipped on a branch

Really, we was stumped wasn't given a chance

Somebody tell Johnny to pick up the seeds

The apple dont fall too far from the tree
