2Pac, Lamar Antwon Robinson, The IMPACT Theatre Group - Family Tree lyrics

Because we all spring from different trees
Does not mean we are not created equally
Is the true beauty in the tree
Or in the vast forest in which it breathes?

I find greatness in the tree
That grows against all odds
It blossoms in darkness
And gives birth to promising pods
I was that tree that grew from the
Weeds and wasn't meant to be
Ashamed I'm not, in fact I am proud
Of my thriving - family - tree

The rose that grew from concrete, yeah
The tree that wasn't meant to be
Though I struggle in my life, I never give up
And you know that I
Will always be by your side
My family tree yeah a family tree
Yeah, my family tree my fam-i-ly tree

I find, greatness in the tree that
Grows against all odds
It blossoms in darkness
And gives birth to a promising pod
You'll never see me give up

I will press on never hold my head alone
Never no my family tree my family tree yeahhh
My family treeeee family treeeee

Because we all spring from different trees
Does not mean we are not created equally
Is the true beauty in the tree
Or in the vast forest in which it breathes?

The tree must fight to breathe
Among the evils of the weeds

I find greatness in the tree
That grows against all odds
Ashamed I'm not, in fact I am proud
Of my thriving - family - tree
