Pictures in the Candlelight By Plies

Chorus

They took my brother on a Sunday night

Now I'm looking at his picture in the candle light

Wondering if we ever gonna get it right

Thinking how he didn't even get to fight

Verse 1

Rent due and the kitchen empty

Mama crying cause the fridge is looking light

My auntie addicted

Sister moving way too fast

Street life really took a heavy toll

Pre-Chorus

Lord hear my prayer

Lord save my soul

Lord wash my sins

Chorus

They took my brother on a Sunday night

Now I'm looking at his picture in the candle light

Wondering if we ever gonna get it right

Thinking how he didn't even get to fight

Post-Chorus

Life goes on

Life goes on

Life goes on

Verse 2

Letters from the prison block

Counting minutes by the ticking of the clock

Cold cell blocks

Rough nights

Long years

Walking down the yard with a hidden tear

Pre-Chorus

Lord hear my prayer

Lord save my soul

Lord wash my sins

Chorus

They took my brother on a Sunday night

Now I'm looking at his picture in the candle light

Wondering if we ever gonna get it right

Thinking how he didn't even get to fight

Bridge

Missing the family cookouts

Wishing I could see his face again

The hood won't ever be the same

Chorus

They took my brother on a Sunday night

Now I'm looking at his picture in the candle light

Wondering if we ever gonna get it right

Thinking how he didn't even get to fight
