Drake released another diss track titled “Family Matters” as a response to Kendrick Lamar‘s previous diss track aimed at him.
This is the third diss track Drake has released targeting Kendrick Lamar after Push Ups & Taylor Made Freestyle. The overall tone is very aggressive and doesn’t hold back in going after Kendrick and others who have apparently wronged Drake in some way.
Family Matters Drake lyrics is given below.
Family Matters Drake Lyrics
Maybe in this song you shouldn’t start by saying
Nigga I said it, I know that you mad
I’ve emptied the clip over friendlier jabs
You mentioned my seed, now deal with his dad
I gotta go bad, I gotta go bad
Mmm, mmm, yeah
Drop, drop, drop, drop
Drop a fifty bag for the mob in the spot
Drop a fifty bag, twenty-nine for the thot
Uh, I was really, really tryna keep it PG
I was really, really tryna keep it PG
If you had a set, they’d give your ass a DP
Two civilian getting real like you PC
You know who really bang a set? My nigga YG
You know who really bang a set? My nigga Chuck T
You know who even bang a set out there is CB
And, nigga, Cole losin’ sleep on this, it ain’t me
You better have some paperwork or that shit fake tea
Can’t be rapping ’bout no ratting that we can’t read
I mean it’s true a nigga slimed me for my AP
Just like how Metro nigga slimed him for his main squeeze
Out here begging for attention, nigga say, “Please”
Always rapping like you ’bout to get the slaves freed
You just acting like a activist, it’s make believe
Don’t even go back to your hood and plant no money trees
You say you hate the girls I fuck, but what you really mean?
I been with black and white and everything that’s in between
You the black messiah wifing up a mixed queen
And hit vanilla cream to help out with your self-esteem
On some Bobby shit, I wanna know what Whitney need
All that puppy love was over in y’all late teens
Why you never hold your son and tell him, “Say cheese?”
We could’ve left the kids out of this, don’t blame me
You a dog and you know it, you just play sweet
Your baby mama captions always screamin’, “Save me”
You did her dirty all her life, you tryna make peace
I heard that one of them little kids might be Dave Free
Don’t make it Dave Free’s
‘Cause if your GM is your BM secret BD
Then this is all making plenty fuckin’ sense to me
Ayy, let that shorty breathe
Shake that ass bitch, hands on your knees
Hands on your knees, hands on your knees
Shake that ass for Drake, now shake that ass for free
Yeah, yeah
Well not that kind of free, I’m talkin’ ’bout my nigga Dave
Your man a little K, we call that shit a mini Drac’
He always said I overlooked him, I was staring straight
These bars go over Kenny head, no matter what I say
I know you like to keep it short, so let me paraphrase
Knew it was smoke when Abel hit us with the serenade
Nigga said, “Uh, uh”
Almost started reaching for my waist
Drop, drop, drop, drop
Drop a fifty bag for the mob in the spot
Drop a fifty bag, twenty-nine for the thot
Uh, I was really, really tryna keep itโ
Yeah
Yeah, let me stop playing around, take this shit serious
You niggas is a joke, I’ll take it serious though
Yeah, look
If Drake shooters doing TikToks, nigga
Realest shooter in your gang thats P’s brother, y’all ain’t getting shit shot, nigga
Can’t listen to the stick talk in falsetto, save it for a hip-hop nigga
Y’all don’t ever be at home, dawg you a souvenir out the gift shop, nigga
Still mad about that one ho, we ain’t even fuck, I just lip lock with her
I get active when it’s war time I ain’t even really let my dick drop, nigga
What the fuck? I heard Rick drop, nigga?
Talking something ’bout a nose job, nigga?
Ozempic got a side effect of jealousy and doctors never told y’all niggas
Put a nigga in the bars let a nigga rot kind of like your old job nigga
House sitting on some land but it’s out where no one even really know y’all niggas
Bitches gotta drive two hours for you pay ’em just to give a blowjob, nigga
Must’ve snorted up a snowball
Cause my last record deal was four hundred M’s, these days that’s a low ball, nigga
Ayy
Who’s next on the list?
Which one of my so called niggas
Which one of my so called niggas
Which one of my so called niggas need a shell from the clip?
Always knew I had to smoke y’all niggas
Good kid, m.A.A.d city van
We’ll pop the latch and let the door slide
Tears running down my cheek laughing at you pussies dying, it’s a war cry
Weeknd music getting played in the spots where boys got a little more pride
That’s why all your friends dipping to Atlanta paying just to find a tour guide
Abel run your fucking bread, need to buy some more chains for some more guys
Lemme find another street nigga I can take to the game courtside
Let me get a used Ferrari for a rapper take the nigga on a horse ride
Anything to take the spotlight off the fact the boss is a drugged out little punk sissy from the northside
Rakim talkin’ shit again
Gassed cause you hit my BM first
Nigga do the math, who I was hitting then?
I ain’t even know you rap still cause they only talking ’bout your fit again
Probably gotta a have kid again ‘fore you think of dropping any shit again
Even when you do drop, they gon’ say you shoulda modeled cause it’s mid again
Smoking Fenty bout they shoulda put you on the first one you tryna get it in
Ask Fring if this a good idea next time you cuddled in the bed again
She’ll even tell ya leave the boy alone before ya get your head split again
Pluto shit make me sick to my stomach, we ain’t never really been through it
Leland Wayne, he a fucking lame, so I know he had to be a influence
These niggas had a plan and they finally found a way to rope ya into it
Two separate albums dissing I just did a Kim to it, nigga skim through it
Me and Savage had the hoes dripping wet at shows almost had to swim to it
K-Dot shit is only hitting hard when Baby Keem put his pen to it
Ross calling me the white boy and the shit kind of got a ring to it
Cause all these rappers waving white flags while the whole fucking club sing to it
Murder scene on your man tonight, then come to the vigil with the candle light
Body after fucking body and you know Rick reading my Miranda Rights
I’m going on vacation now, hope next time ya’ll planned it right
Cause you gotta pay for saying my name, guess now niggas understand the price
Nigga, what? (6ix)
Ayy
Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go hand him a Grammy right now
Where is your Uncle at? Cause I wanna talk to the man of the house
West Coast niggas do fades right? Come get this ass whoopin, I’m handin’ ’em out
You wanna take up for Pharrell, then come get his legacy out of my house
A cease and desist is for hoes, can’t listen to lies that come out of your mouth
You called the Tupac Estate, and begged em to sue me and get that shit down
I’m losing perspective on beef, Boi-1da send beat, and I’ll kill you for fun
Your daddy got robbed by Top, you Stunna and Wayne, like father like son
Anthony set up the plays, Kojo be charging you double for none
They shook about what I’ma say, but texting your phone like we already won
You tell me what I shouldn’t say, but fuck it my nigga it’s already done
We already know it’s a 20 v 1, we already know why you went number 1
It’s clearly because of The Boy, the honorable thing is to give me the loot
You right about, “Fuck the Big 3”, It’s only Big D, and it’s video proof
Our sons should go play at the park, two light skin kids, that shit would be cute
Unless you don’t want to be seen with anyone that isn’t blacker than you
We get it, we got it
“The Blacker The Berry The Sweeter The Juice”
We get that you like to put gin in your juice, we get that you think you’re Bishop in Juice
When you put your hands on your girl, is it self defense ’cause she’s bigger than you?
Your back is up against the curb, you digging for dirt, you should be digging for proof
Why did you move to New York? Is it cause you living that bachelor life?
Proposed in 2015, but don’t wanna make her your actual wife
I’m guessing this wedding ain’t happening, right?
Cause we know the girls that you actually like
Your darker secrets are coming to light, it’s all on your face like what happened to Mike
Oh shit, it’s all making sense, maybe I’m Prince and you actually Mike
Michael was praying his features would change so people believe that he’s actually white
Top would make you do a feature for change, get on pop records and rap for the whites
And wait, you say you brother Jermaine? But you wanted him to stay out of the light
Oh shit, just follow me right; ’cause nothing you saying could bother me right
I get off the plane and nothing has changed
I head to Delilah with all of my ice
Head to Delilah with all of my ice
Head to Delilah with all of my ice
This shit gotta be over by now for anyone out here that’s calling it right?
Ya dead, ya dead, ya dead
Theres no where to hide, there’s no where to hide
You know I mean
They hired a crisis management team to clean up the fact that you beat on your queen
The picture you painted, it ain’t what it seems
Ya dead
Drake Family Matters Meaning
On the multilayered “Family Matters,” Drake delivers a complex response to Kendrick Lamar, addressing personal feuds, industry dynamics, and the importance he places on loyalty and family ties. The very title is a play on words – referring both to Drake’s defense of his own family as well as the figurative “family” within the rap world.
Throughout the track, Drake employs intricate wordplay, slang, and insider references as he fires back at Kendrick’s previous disses and accusations. He questions Kendrick’s relationship with his wife Whitney Alford, even insinuating one of Kendrick’s children may not biologically be his.
Drake mocks Kendrick’s biracial identity and parenting skills, while also strategically reclaiming use of the n-word. He emphasizes his own values around remaining loyal to friends, collaborators, and most importantly, family – shouting out his child as his “seed.”
The rapper challenges the authenticity of some who front a tough image in their art while having a different reality behind closed doors. He paints himself as realness personified in comparison.
The dramatic lyrical assault is complemented by multiple beat switches and a cinematic music video, adding layers to Drake’s theatrical takedown of Kendrick.
Overall, “Family Matters” showcases Drake’s ability to craft a raw, introspective exploration of complex relationship dynamics, feuds, and industry politics through densely-layered disses and strategic self-representation as a man of integrity and familial devotion.
