Brother
There's so much that I could never say to your face
But by 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
son, not a sob story
(Ooh, ooh, hoo)

Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
And your priority, it must be her
Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
Cause we’ll never be the way we were
(Ooh, ooh, hoo)

She can’t always be there just to hold you down
Our mother
When you are at an age now where life turns around, 
My brother
[Brother lyrics on [bad word] /www [bad word] 

Realize that you don’t have to answer to no man [bad word] down to you
But how can I expect you to understand
When you live life like you’re [bad word] through
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo)

Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
And your priority, it must be her
Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
Cause we’ll never be the way we were
Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
And your priority, it must be her
Now you must look out for her the way she did for you
Cause we’ll never be the way we were

The way we were
We’ll never be
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And your priority,
It must be her
(ooh, ooh, hoo)
