Brother
There's so much that I could never say to your face
Bye, bye now
You should know the world and all its ways so find your place
How do I find words that do not condescend
When she bore you before me
'Cause she doesn't need a child, she needs a friend
A son not a sob story
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
And your priority, it must be heard
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
She can't always be there just to hold you down
Our mother
When you are at a age now well life turns around
My brother
Realize that you don't have to answer to no man
Responsibility comes down to you
But how can I expect you to understand
When you live life like its so run through
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
Your priority, it must be heard
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
And your priority, it must be heard
Now you must have never heard of what she did for you
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
The way we were, we'll never be
And your priority, it must be heard
