lyrics

Met my grandpa, he was black & white
And a few years from his teens
Held my father towards the flashing light
In 1963
There’s my grandma standing to the side
Got my auntie round her knees
Only standing about 5 foot 5
But she seemed so tall to me

And I’m told I have the same face as my namesake
We’re all going to the same place when we’re done
Even if we all ain’t got the same names
I’ll be proud to call you family sure enough

Some jumped from airplanes, some ran the family farm
They raised my dad, my mom, and they raised me
Some aren’t related by words or blood
But they’re still your family

I hope I’ve grown to be my mother by the time I have a son
I hope he takes after my father, I hope they just be who they want
I hope my friends will all surround them like crazy uncles and aunts
I hope they know that they don’t have to be related to be loved
It’s just love
