James Gardin - This Family Lyrics

This Family
Written and Composed by James Gardin

I used to watch the families on tv
Praying to god they could be me
Why does there life looks so easy
And every problem ends so cheesy
Then I start to wonder like Stevie
What would I get the fam
If the money ain’t a thang
The holidays would bang
So I’ll keep making jams
till I can make it change

We don’t let the special moments go and jus slip through the clock
Cause we know the presents
Ain’t the things hiding in the box
I used to be sad
Cause we didn’t get a lot
Until I learned
That you gotta love what you got

We don’t have your picture perfect
Cookie Cutter
No it’s not your usual
But this families beautiful
We don’t have your picture perfect
Cookie Cutter
No it’s not your usual
But this families beautiful

We would exchange gifts
If our funds say would could
But the best gift
Was seeing everyone healthy and free
good
I would honestly take all these gifts back
If I could have a few people back
My baby niece starting to walk and she teething
That helps. Me take solace in the season

We don’t let the special moments go and jus slip through the clock
Cause we know the presents
Ain’t the things hiding in the box
I used to be sad
Cause we didn’t get a lot
Until I learned
That you gotta love what you got

We don’t have your picture perfect
Cookie Cutter
No it’s not your usual
But this families beautiful
We don’t have your picture perfect
Cookie Cutter
No it’s not your usual
But this families beautiful
