Ms. Dynamite - Brother

[Verse One] When we were young Life was so unjust At times I felt it was just us Mama working hard to put food on the table All on her own she sacrificed Even when my brothers and sisters died Some how she stayed strong I never saw her cry I was the oldest and responsibility was so immense The tension, we'd disagree So I left, at the time I felt she hated me Told me to be strong Told me to hang on, hugged me tight And said Big sister it'll be alright [Chorus] Brother, I love ya Little brother I thank God for ya every day Little Brother I Love Ya And I pray He'll never take you away [Verse Two] When my soul withered and I lived in the dark An emptiness it filled my heart You never stopped holdin' me Never stopped tryin' to open me up The days and nights I spent stressin' The years I spent In depression This is my confession Thought about ending it sometimes But the second you crossed my mind I knew, I could never leave you Made me believe You set me free To this day, all I say and do, I owe it all to you [Repeat Chorus] [Verse Three] Ooh, I would lie for you Cry for you Ride or die for you Touch the sky for you If you asked me to There's nothin I wont do I took this life for joke I would drink or smoke To ease away the pain And forget the memories up in my brain But you helped me to stop the rain Oh brother brother...
