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, ooh

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, oh

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 it's 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 (now you must have)

'Cause we'll never be the way we were

Now you must have never heard of what she did for you (now you must)

And your priority, it must be heard

Now you must have never heard of what she did for you (now you must)

'Cause we'll never be the way we were

The way we were, we'll never be, ooh

And your priority, it must be heard, ooh
