Cameron London - A Song for My Family Lyrics

This one
This one's for my family
Sometimes
I struggle to say it but
It helps to write it down

Can't pretend I understood
All you taught
You were my guide, I struggled at times
But learned a lot
Practice together
Win it together
Saw it in motion, I know it's the truth
You gave up plenty of hours at home
So you could give it right back to the youth
Felt you were missing me shine
So I just started to grind
Hoping one day I'd afford to take all of your troubles and leave them behind
You told me just clock in to work
Tucked in my shirt
Fresh off the stage
Now I look back at it all
And think that I'll finally act my age
I thought the love was lost
But now I know the cost
Might not have dotted the I's
But all of the T's were crossed
I still have a lot to learn
Now and after you meet my kids
And if I don't say it enough
I'm grateful for all you did
I got the best of what you gave
I look at my family and honestly I'm amazed
Times slipping away
I struggle to say what's come to mind
So I thought I'd take my time

Plenty laughs and plenty tears
Already spent a lifetime facing my fears
We've all had our moments, but the bond is strong
The family circle's where we all belong
Plenty laughs and plenty tears
Already spent a lifetime facing my fears
We've all had our moments, but the bond is strong
The family circle's where we all belong

You wrapped me in love
You lifted me up
I know that your prayers been filling up my cup
From bedtime stories, to the wisdom that you shared
Watch Annie's little angel face the world
And don't be scared
My mother became a friend
Told me don't hide from the world
Embrace my gifts and don't pretend
I gotta learn, I gotta earn
Respect and dignity
Remember way back when I died and everything it meant to me
Chop and cha laughed and played
All of us side by side
They got a life of their own
But they been along for the ride
They have supported my dreams
Feel like I've done the same
Stayed til they got out of college
It's only myself to blame
If I would've left
(I never)
Would have forgave myself
I think of the moments we struggled together
I'm glad that we had the help
Cha just became a mother
And Carlynn's been building her own
The thing that I love the most
Is when we're all at home

We right where we belong
Right where we belong
(Oh yeah)
We right where we belong
Right where we belong
(Okay)
We right where we belong
Right where we belong
(Oh yeah)
We right where we belong

Plenty laughs and plenty tears
Already spent a lifetime facing my fears
We've all had our moments, but the bond is strong
The family circle's where we all belong
Plenty laughs and plenty tears
Already spent a lifetime facing my fears
We've all had our moments, but the bond is strong
The family circle's where we all belong
