[Verse 1]
You saved me a seat
At the chipped blue table
Where the soup got cold
And the stories stayed warm
You knew my silence
Before I knew my name
You held my fear
Like a paper boat
[Pre-Chorus]
When I came home tired
You made space for me
When I lost my way
You still believed
[Chorus]
Family, I thank you
For the hands that held me
Family, I need you
Like roots need rain
Family, I thank you
For the love you gave me
Family, I carry
Your name in my veins
[Verse 2]
Your laugh in the hallway
Your keys by the bowl
The crease in your forehead
When you prayed for us
You taught me to stand
When the floor felt shaky
You taught me to forgive
And try again
[Pre-Chorus]
When the world got loud
You were steady ground
When I broke apart
You stayed around
[Chorus]
Family, I thank you
For the hands that held me
Family, I need you
Like roots need rain
Family, I thank you
For the love you gave me
Family, I carry
Your name in my veins
[Bridge]
If I wander far
I still hear your voice
Calling me back
To the place I know
With every hard year
And every new day
I know where I come from
I know what stays
[Chorus]
Family, I thank you
For the hands that held me
Family, I need you
Like roots need rain
Family, I thank you
For the love you gave me
Family, I carry
Your name in my veins

Artist Profile
i-Jay
Music that moves freely inside pop - pulling from soul, R&B, ballad, and the atmosphere of city nights - without locking itself into a single genre. The color changes with the emotional temperature each song demands. It begins quietly, grows in layers, and opens at the peak - every rise and fall deliberately built, not accidental. From sparse arrangements to grooves that move through the body, from inward tracks to ones that expand outward, no two pieces share the same shape. What they share is what remains after listening - not a flash of noise, but warmth that stays. The sonic world carries night streets, distant light, a brightness with ache underneath. Not only darkness, not only joy - many feelings rising from the same place. Music that reaches the ear directly, without asking you to perform for it. Genre-crossing, but never rootless. Different worlds in each track, held together by one aesthetic - the flexibility of a trackmaker, the presence of an artist. That is the outline of this music.
