Family lyrics

"What about what I need?
Curtis says its the best thing for the group.
What about what's best for me?
He feel's that dreams can crossover.
What about how I feel?
But when we're famous i"ll write great things for you.
Effie do it for me.
What about me, what about me?"
Its more than you
It is more than me no matter what we are we are a family
This dream is for all of us this one can be real
And you cant stop us now because of how you feel
Its more than you, it is more than me,
whatever dreams we had there for the family
We're not alone anymore now there are others there
And that dreams big enough for all us to share
So don't think your going, your not going anywhere
Your staying and taking your share.
And if you get afraid again I"ll be there
We are a family like a giant tree, branching out for the sky
We are a family we are so much more, than just you and I
We are a family like a giant tree growing stronger growing wiser
We are growing free, we need you
We are a family
