Lyrics
our father didnt bother, never stood by our mothers
now your gone, an I cant say goodbye 2 u brother
raised more like cousins, because of one man,
separated, because our mommas loved him
what do I do when tomorrows fade away?
when yesterdays rainbows, turn 2 shades of grey?
all the things I wanted to say, that havent been spoke up
Im choked up, awoke from dreams, dashed and broke up
So I toke up, 4 token moments, an hold em sacred,
Why feel forsaken? or sacrificed cold'n'naked?
I'm growing old, alone an waiting, sold on hoping my toll is taken,
debating if my soul has shapened, this mold Im breaking
Im Shaken Bro, so tired of fronting, My back is aching
its just so exasperating, 2 feel these last gears grating,
I want 2 say "Im sorry", I spent the past years waiting
now Im hangin on every word the pastor's saying,
we're Brothers sown by the tree of life
both embarked on stark streets, where the dark meets the light
now Im singing songs in this sea of night,
sending my brother, the peace, he didn't see in life
our father didn't bother, never stood by our mothers
now your gone, an I cant say goodbye 2 u brother
raised more like cousins, because of one man,
separated, because our mommas loved him
I remember when, u busted Rico in the head wit a brick
for trippin on me and talkin all that ghetto shit.
I ll never forget, how u protected me when I was young
should of swallowed my pride, should of bit my tongue
then maybe Id know your daughters, sad this is how we meet
its all complete, some memories 2 keep, the rest delete
or the lesson repeats, God keeps testin my feet
in confession Im wishin I never stressed a dime
Im sorry, I shoulda caressed the design
I was in hurry, when I shoulda invested in time
can I request a rewind, back to 79, jumpin on beds
playin at the table, gramma thumpin our heads,
teaming up in kickball, see'in who can make the biggest spitball
im not gon trip, but shit yall, before he split yall
He was so sick yall, NO MORE PAIN, god increased his peace
sufferings ceased, as my tears rain down on my jesus piece
our father didn't bother, never stood by our mothers
now your gone, an I cant say goodbye 2 u brother
raised more like cousins, because of one man,
separated, because our mommas loved him
