Story behind the song

One of my friends has been having a lot of trouble with her grown (adult) kids.She thinks they hate her. They mistreat her & ignore her.My friend is a wonderful person & deserves their respect,not neglect! All she wants is her family back. A real family,not a smile to your face,stab you in the back one!If people only realized how much their words & actions hurt others maybe they might change their ways. The Family unit is falling apart & we need to work hard to put it back together. Not just our immediate families, but every family on earth!

Lyrics

“FAMILY”
Words, Melody & Music
BY: Olivia Francis (c)2004 BMI



Banding together when times are tough
Giving all you’ve got, and never givin’ up
Bein’ one anothers’ faithful friend
Knowin’ how to be strong & when to bend
That’s a family, a real family

Setting goals and workin’ as a team
Not passin’ judgements, or bein’ mean
There’s no dividing or makin’ waves
No room for fighting or runnin’ away
In a family, a real family

CHORUS:
Bein’ a family is a lot of hard work,
But gold is what its weight is worth, and there’s,
Nothin’ on earth like the feelin’ you get
When your heart and soul is poured in it
And you can be proud of a job well done
When you look around at each and every one…
And see a family

Strength of character and honesty
One nation under God, for life and liberty
Love is a bridge between great divides
It can calm the sea, and change the lives
Of a family… God loves a family

Repeat CHORUS
Tag: I love my family…a real family
I see a family…God bless our family
God bless our family…God loves a family……
