[Verse 1: Kanye West]
10
This is family business
11
And this is for the family that can't be with us
12
And this is for my cousin locked down, know the answer's in it
13
That's why I spit it in my songs so sweet
14
Like a photo of your granny's picture
15
Now that you're gone it hit us
16
Super hard on Thankgiving and Christmas, this can't be right
17
Yeah you heard the track I did man, this can't be life
18
Somebody please say grace so I can save face
19
And have a reason to cover my face
20
I even made you a plate, soul food, know how Granny do it
21
Monkey bread on the side, know how the family do it
22
When I brought it why had guard have to look all through it?
23
As kids we used to laugh
24
Who knew that life would move this fast?
25
Who knew I'd have to look at you through a glass?
26
And look, you tell me you ain't did it, then you ain't did it
27
And if you did, then that's family business
28
[Hook: Choir]
29
And I don't care 'bout (all the, all the diamond rings, diamond rings)
30
They don't mean a thing (all, all, all the things)
31
All these fancy things
32
I tell you that all (all the glitter) I'm waiting for
33
Now all I know I know
34
All these things
35
[Verse 2: Kanye West]
36
This is family business
37
And this is for everybody standin' with us
38
Come on, let's take a family Grammy picture
39
Abby, remember when they ain't believe in me?
40
Now she like "See, that's my cousin on TV"
41
Now, we gettin' it and we gon' make it
42
And they gon' hate it and I'm his favorite
43
I can't deny it, I'm a straight rider
44
But when we get together be electric slidin'
45
Grandma, get 'em shook up
46
Aw naw, don't open the photo book up
47
I got an Aunt Ruth that can't remember your name
48
But I bet them Polaroids'll send her down memory lane
49
You know that one auntie, we don't mean to be rude
50
But every holiday nobody eatin' the food
51
And you don't wanna stay there cuz them your worst cousins
52
Got roaches at their crib like them your first cousins
53
Act like you ain't took a bath with your cousins
54
Fit three in the bed if it's six of y'all
55
I'm talkin' 'bout three by the head and three by the leg
56
But you ain't have to tell my girl I used to pee in the bed
57
[Interlude: Choir]

Rain, rain, rain go away
59
Let the sun come out and all the children say
60
Rain, rain, rain go away
61
Let the sun come out and all the children say
62
[Verse 3: Kanye West]
63
I woke up early this mornin' with a new state of mind
64
A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns
65
Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to God
66
And keep your face to the risin' sun
67
All my niggas from the Chi, that's my family dog
68
And my niggas ain't my guys, they my family dog
69
I feel like one day you'll understand me dog
70
You can still love your man and be manly dog
71
You ain't got to get heated at every house warmin'
72
Sittin' here, grillin' people like George Foreman
73
Why Uncle Ray and Aunt Shiela always performin'?
74
The second she storm out, then he storm in
75
Y'all gon' sit down, have a good time this reunion
76
And drink some wine like Communion
77
And act like everything fine and if it isn't
78
We ain't lettin' everybody in our family business
79
