Murs - Brotherly Love lyrics
This is dedicated to all my little brothers, little homies, yo check it out [Verse 1] Man you 21 now and I still can believe it Been living on your own, just hard to conceive That you on the right track, out pursuing that knowledge But a few years back I couldn't see you in college You was all out cripping, brought a gun in the house My first thought was to take it, give you one to the mouth But never that, we been through way to much I always tried to give you guidance but not say too much Tried to lead by example, didn't I have some nerve Telling you stay out the street while I was out slanging herb But I always preferred you do it smarter then me You didn't have to prove nothing being harder then me You helped mom at the cleaners Stayed away from misdemeanors I was proud of you then Please believe I still am Don't let the world get you down, throw you off your program Life is hard, even harder on a young black man If it gets rough blow a blunt and bump some more slow jams Know every man with a badge is probably a punk But don't ever risk your freedom, just to throw one punch Let a coward be a coward, he has to deal with his past I know these pigs deserve it but give em a pass I know you wanna keep it gangster, just do it with class Above all remember this, no matter how big you get I'm still your big brother and I can always whoop your ass [Chorus] They say a wise man knows nothing, so I know a lot less But I been where you at homie, put to the test The answer lies deep within, so open your chest And find God within yourself and he'll show you the rest I know the world is against you and your going through stress But long as you still breathing God, and know you been blessed The only sin is giving up, there's no need to confess Find a God within yourself and he'll show you the rest [Verse 2] Now take that doo-rag off when you get in my ride Man that shit aint fresh, you're supposed to wear it inside Not under bandannas or under a cap I might be getting old but I don't understand that You want your hoodie on or off, please make up your mind Trapped in a rap video, losing your mind Getting lost through someone else helps you find yourself I guess that's how it works I seen this kid the other day with murder written on his shirt And never been to a funeral Now am I out of touch, if I say it's unusual This dude will sing a love ballad to his homeboys, before a young lady Now aint that crazy If you didn't love that bitch then why you make her keep your baby Ooh abortions not right But just the other night You were a killer pull a trigger before you have a fare fight But if you value one, then why not value every life Its obvious you know the difference between wrong and right Its not about being self, its hard to follow the light When you're surrounded by darkness, almost drowning in evil Been searching for some help but still aint found no real people Here's a shout, know we out here, we struggling too Some of us do it legal; some will thug our way through We got to fight to show the world that our youth are intelligent So keep it gangster in your CD changer, not your residence [Chorus] They say a wise man knows nothing, so I know a lot less But I been where you at homie, put to the test The answer lies deep within, so open your chest And find God within yourself and he'll show you the rest I know the world is against you and your going through stress But long as you still breathing God, and know you been blessed The only sin is giving up, there's no need to confess Find a God within yourself and he'll show you the rest |
