Family Affair Lyrics

Yeah, ooh.
You've found me in a good mood, yaa little bastards.

My Grandma told me,
Do not take shit,
From anybody in this motherfucking bitch.
See, my Grandma told me,
Never ever ever take no shit,
Especially that shark in the dark,
'cause that shark in the dark can suck my
watch your mouth!

My Grandma told me
Never ever ever take no shit
And that's probably why my Grandpa hides,
Well my Grandmas won,
My heart won't quit.

My Dad taught me how to handle the riff raff,
and Mum bought the paint,
first time I did graff,
One time for the fam' that you got,
Granny got a gun and never ran from the cops,
So I stand on this rock with a sin mentality,
And we drift this bitch 'til we bend reality.
My blood -- when I handle the beat,
So I don't bark up my family tree.

I say what you think,
but I'm not a mind reader.
I'm good to my girl,
but I wear a wife-beater.
Happy as fuck when I rap with my cuz,
if you're battling him,
then you're battling us.

A world full of wolves,
who's the leader of the pack?
When they teach you how to act,
tryin' to keep them in track.
Conditioned 'til you're blue in the face,
so take it from rage,
i won't do what they say!

Because my Grandma told me,
Never ever ever take no shit,
Especially that shark in the dark,
'cause that shark in the dark can suck my
- watch your mouth!

My Grandma told me,
Never never ever ever take no shit,
and that's probably why my Grandpa hides
Well, my Grandmas won,
My heart won't quit.

Just bob, like you're mad on Marley,
and I've finally got a job to get my Dad that harley.
Though it's hardly a job 'cause the -- refuge,
I'm an uncle now, with a newborn nephew.
Follows you 'round,
broke with the bruzz.
Jam with my fam',
with my cuz,
We don't say it enough
So from all of my band,
Ima take a second now
to give it up to all of my fans.

I just stand in the kitchen
With a plan and a vision
I'm a man on a mision
With my folk on a Fridays
Soak in the light rays
Carolina, blue sky
Coast on the highway
On track, fired up and steam-powered
Never listen to the dream-doubters at the bean counters
Join the mental, consequential song writer
Lit the island up, like a continental bonfire

My Grandma told me
Never never never take no shit
Especially that shark in the dark,
'cause that shark in the dark can suck my
watch your mouth!

My Grandma told me
Never never ever ever take no shit
And that's probably why my Grandpa hits
Well, my Grandma's won,
My heart won't quit.

26th of March,
the vision is bliss,
5:55, on the 5th of the 5th
Eso poppin' in new years,
Flippin' the script,
it's just 380 babies chillin' in the crib,
we're not givin' a shit
so respect your elders,
the proof's in the pudding
that protects and shelters,
so tell this to the rock -
i don't budge mate, you ain't got what it takes.
Got Tinkerbells magic dust and I'm saddled up,
Downed all the jam and I'm rattled up in a cattle truck,
cakes with the power of a dreamer.
sinking and I rattled the arena,
no shit, we were revved up from the start,
to the sleepers we were the bedbugs in the dark,
-blood for the sharks.

Grandma would make the meals
my uncle didn't like bikes with training wheels,
and me and mum would work at local markets for tax-free cash with a backseat dad,
which makes me the man of the house,
with a girl and a great dane,
hand me the crown,
that's Granny in the chair,
put your hands in the air for this family affair.

Because my Grandma told me
Never never never take not shit,
Especially that shark in the dark,
'cause that shark in the dark can suck my
watch your mouth!

My Grandma told me
Never never ever ever take no shit,
and that's probably why my Grandpa hides,
Well, my Grandmas won,
My heart wont quit.

Bliss n Eso are an ARIA award winning Australian hip hop group based in Sydney, Australia and were originally known as Bliss n' Esoterikizm. They formed in 2000.

From an early stage in their career, Bliss N Eso primarily built their fan base from their compelling and energetic live performances. An exhilarating blend of fluid rhymes and banging beats teamed with beat boxing, impromptu freestyling and seamless turntablism make their live shows a brand in their own right, and has seen the group hailed as one of the best live acts in the country. After four years of touring with consistently powerful performances, Bliss N Eso settled down in 2004 to record their first full length album Flowers In The Pavement. A virtual brainstorm on record, the emerging artists compiled track after track of wild expression through vibrant lyrics and production. The debut album met an overwhelming response from audiences and critics Australia wide.

In late 2006, Bliss N Eso's second album, Day of the Dog, was released and became the first Australian hip-hop release to debut in ARIA's top 50. It also earned Bliss N Eso an ARIA nomination for Best Urban Release in 2006 with sales exceeding all benchmarks for a local hip-hop release. In 2007 Bliss N Eso travelled to North America, playing sold out shows in the North-West of the US and Canada including a stand out performance at the Whistler 2007 Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival. Upon their return, the lads embarked on the unforgettable Make Poverty History Zero Seven road trip tour and ventured on an epic journey in June 2007 with MTV and the Oaktree Foundation to some of the poorest regions in South Africa to complete the track and shoot the video clip for their next album's first single, Bullet and a Target. 2008 saw Bliss N Eso take things to a whole new level with the release of their third LP, Flying Colours.

The album, which received near perfect reviews in countless media, broke all kinds of records for an Australian hip-hop act thanks to four monster singles in the form of Bullet and a Target, Woodstock 2008, The Sea is Rising and Eye of the Storm. After a top 10 ARIA debut, the album became the highest selling local hiphop album of the year and with their third nomination in as many years, Bliss N Eso took out the ARIA Award for 2008's Best Urban Release. The official album tour sold out every one of its 24 legs including an unforgettable homecoming show at Sydney's Enmore Theatre in front of 2,500 lucky ticket holders. After ten phenomenal years, these three troublemakers from Sydney's suburbs are officially in unchartered territory – which is exactly where they like to be.

Bliss N Eso has just released their latest album called running on air. Debuting at the end of july featuring there latest hit down by the river (link below for their new film clip) . there album is on its way of becoming a great succsess like all their previouse albums.
