Welcome
Take a seat
Take a seat
I want all four of y'all to sit down
Take a seat, read the lyrics
And don't be one of them, "oh, I'm going to just skip to my part and see what you got to say about me"
Nah, this ain't that
Imma make y'all love each other now
Welcome to the Ali
This one's in specific for Tha Valentines
Y'all got to, hey, y'all all got to
Hop on the track and make we one
You know what I'm saying
For Tha Ali to Tha Ali
See what I'm saying but
Listen
To the Valentins, To the Valentins
Welcome to Tha Ali, Welcome to Tha Ali
You know how it be, you know how it be
Everything jolly, everything jolly
Until it's not
But when it's not I want y'all to hold on to each other cuz that's all y'all got
Y'all like diamonds get that pressure on y'all don't even pop
Y'all don't even pop, nah
And I know there's some days where you wake up saying y'all miss ya pops
That's probably everyday
But he wants y'all to keep going and no matter what never stop
You don't stop, nah
Start off with Joey
You my right-hand man but I'm lefty like Ginobili
You my only brother in this game but you still can coach me
Bro like Joey you have to pay for but I got for free
Know you struggle with some things that I may not know
Or you may not show
And it may be a little slow for you to grow
But don't let that stop you from being the man you have to be
That's Mr. Valentin, Mr. Valentin, uh
I want you to succeed so much that you're the cash machine
So successful that you turn clear bottles into green
Pulling up in that new Benz color chrome green
That's a bright green
I don't have to tell you this, but treat Ana like a queen
And I'm your 6th sense I let you know when there's a screen
Back to ballin, like in 17' hooping on Veronski
Playing Horse and just throwing up shots back when Bron was on the Cavs I was tryna get mine like yours cuz a nigga did hella squats
Yours must've gotten big back when we used to run from the damn cops
Nah I'm lying
Mom that was cap
Me and Joey wasn't even close like that
And plus
The only time I remember running with him was Pete's house and we almost missed the damn bus
Ali n Joey that's us
Now Kick it off with Christina
Call it Tina for now
That lil frown that you have as you wear your crown I need it upside down
Smile now like right now
Past is dead the future is born now
Lock in with yourself, the time is now
Don't let your actions define how you truly are
Why is that Christina?
Well Christina that's because
You are truly art
If you look at the whole picture you have a heart
It's just the man may not do his part
God is the only man you need to set you apart from others and leave you number one just like a chart
Put that shit together since you like to sew
And who knows maybe that's your passive income of dough
I don't know but I bet you do
Shooting shots like me and Joey you may end up on Hulu
With your kids on the show Blues Clues
In other words just take that damn chance
This is a confirmation that anything you're pushing off right now it's March 3rd so I called it in advance
You need to see your whole success not just a little glance
You have to advance to enhance that means f*ck everyone and their romance
Nah
Julie, childhood wasn't too damn great
But leave it to me
I'll fulfill what your inner child wants to be
I'll carry your inner child's legacy
But one thing, don't thank me
Playa
Thank the man above
Bad hand of cards but he gave you a glove
And when you think of him you think of love
When I look at God and you I see true love
Always ready to throw down for ones you love
Then fix their teeth up with your dentist gloves
I just hope he blessed you with everything you ask for
And he grants you with a key to every new door and some more
And now for Jeanette best thing you received was Zay
So no matter what I say it can't beat 4/4/10 yeah that day
Imma try my best and lay what I have to lay
Writing this in PA, about ten days after your birthday
Anyways
You remind me like mom
Strong minded but tend to blow up when things aren't calm
You know the message 18 of Psalms
Now let's move on
I hope God blesses y'all forever on
You're a diamond when all the pressure's on
Heaven sent when the refreshers are on
You're winning this race in this marathon
I know I don't have to tell you keep an eye on
Zay and his phenomenon
But you're doing phenomenal
Holding it down through every obstacle
I'll take it from here and put us in houses we never thought was possible
Woo
Us five and Mom have to move together on
Ali Felix Valentin leave an impression on everyone
And fight any demon that tries to take us on
Anyone that tries to pick six automatic loss
And To Tha Valentins that's the song
To Tha Valentins that's the song
God is real
Jesus is real
Nigga I'm real
Realer than Kap when he took that damn kneel
How the fighty mighty four gon fight each other
Learn from one another, teach each other
I know deep down y'all wanna see each other
Since y'all all changing shit, y'all could remeet another
My point is
Y'all don't have a father if he looks down and sees how y'all treat one another he'll be shaking his head
I don't even know him but I know he is shaking his head
Laying in his heaven bed
Wanna know something I picked up a book and it read
Do not say
"I'll do to them as they done to me
I'll pay them back for what they did"
That's how y'all wanna live?
Continue that and I guarantee he won't forgive
And you only get one of these you can't relive this life
So come on forgive each other so we can move on from that life
Leave that shit in Jersey or choose that lowlife
Let that shit sink in
This ain't the way of life
I don't care what type of thought process y'all got going on in your own head
Bro like
Maybe it's an ego thing, I don't know
I don't know the full story, I don't wanna know the full story
Because if I know the full story, I know the full story gon be some straight bullshit
So I don't even wanna know that shit
Whatever it is bro, y'all can drop it
It's not like bloodshed or something like that
Nah bro
It's probably over something so damn petty
And it's like
Y'all hold these grudges and shit
But until it's time to- show up to one of- you know
Show up to a funeral and shed a tear
"Oh I wish it was-"
You know you get to regretting this shit
So it's either you wanna live that life or you just wanna oh "I'll just wait till they die or something"
Like no bro
They're by your side now bro
Why the f*ck you gonna wait till they six feet under
Come on
Do right
If y'all don't do right for me at least do it for your father
That's all I ask
Welcome to the Ali
