Family

Who is family? Is it your own flesh and blood? Or a really great friend You can't ever tell which one will be a dud What exactly is family People who are there through all the ups and down's They wouldn't abandon you when you need 'em the most They listen when you need to talk instead of drown out the sound Family should have your back
Whether they agree with you or not And when they disagree they shouldn't say a word Just stick behind you instead of leaving you to rot When bad things happen Is when you find out who family is It's pathetic that it has to happen that way But that's when you usually get dissed Family can be anyone But its those who stick by your side That are truly family And not just a stranger along for the ride.
