I've been 2 the mountain top

I've been 2 the valley low

The one thing that never stopped

Was the love that my family showed

When my mama she passed away

My papa he gave us hope

He said there won't ever come a day

When your family won't help U cope



As sure as Moses' staff parted the water

As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime

As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted

That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time



Well



We went 2 church on Sunday mornin' (Oh yeah)

All dressed up lookin' mighty fine

The spirit came without a warning

Intoxicated us all like wine

Don't it make U stop and wonder

Why we kill our own kind every day?

Why can't we get along with each other

When we damn well know it's the only way?



As sure as Moses' staff parted the water

(That's how sure I am, oh yeah, blood is thicker than time)
