Love Your Brother

Intro

Yeah

Uh

Love your brother

Love your brother

Verse 1

I remember two kids on the same cracked street

Sharing one pair of shoes in the summer heat

You took the blame when the window broke

I never said thanks

I just laughed and joked

Years rolled by like a slow freight train

Now we pass on the porch and we don't say names

Mama's photo sittin on the shelf

Ask me how I'm doing

I don't ask myself

Chorus

Love your brother

Before the phone goes quiet

Love your brother

Before the holidays divide us

Love your brother

You only get the one

Love your brother

Call him up and don't run

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Don't run

Yeah yeah

Love your brother

Verse 2

I built walls out of pride and cheap talk

He built a life twelve blocks from my block

Saw him at the market with his little girl

She waved at me

I froze in that world

Coulda been an uncle

Coulda been a friend

Coulda been the hand that helped him stand again

Instead I'm writin rhymes in a rented room

Talkin tough to a mirror

Talkin doom

Chorus

Love your brother

Before the phone goes quiet

Love your brother

Before the holidays divide us

Love your brother

You only get the one

Love your brother

Call him up and don't run

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Don't run

Yeah yeah

Love your brother

Bridge

We ain't enemies

We just drifted slow

Blood don't ask permission

Blood already knows

I'm sorry for the silence

Sorry for the show

If you hear this on the radio

Chorus

Love your brother

Before the phone goes quiet

Love your brother

Before the holidays divide us

Love your brother

You only get the one

Love your brother

Call him up and don't run

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Don't run

Yeah yeah

Love your brother
