BROTHERHOOD

(album: GOD SAVE THE STREETS - 2023)

See my brothers in the hood held onto brotherhood
Sharing what we had even though they're stolen goods
I just couldn't stand being so misunderstood
They'll judge by the cover and then they'll throw the book
Sat here thinking about situations I was in
Still can't believe all the places that I've been
Just to take it in, got take another trip
Luggage full of baggage, this pain I'm carrying

But my brothers in the hood held onto brotherhood
Sharing what we had even though they're stolen goods
I just couldn't stand being so misunderstood
We was so misunderstood
So my brothers in the hood held onto brotherhood
We was down bad but, no, it weren't for good
Staring at the future, I had to take a look
I need my lucky break, tired of breaking down buj
Brown liquor all in my red cup when I'm lean
At the Crown Plaza, I wake up like a king
Just to take it in just to take another trip
Flying everywhere but my bros still on the wing
So deep in the cut, I had no time for a trim
Hit a standstill, I moved onto better things
Couldn't make it work, tell me why we're arguing
Had a forest fire, weren't trying to burn your bridge
Now the smoked settled, I'm finally kinda rich
Still show love 'cause it doesn't cost a thing
Whole load of anger inside me as a kid
Now when I'm seeing red it's the carpet at the Brits
Never left the country and now we're traveling
Open up them boarders, let all my bruddas in
Running out of breath, but I caught the second wind
We took hella L's but it taught us how to win

See my brothers in the hood held onto brotherhood
Sharing what we had even though they're stolen goods
I just couldn't stand being so misunderstood
They'll judge by the cover and then they'll throw the book
Started thinking about situations I was in
Still can't believe all the places that I've been
Just to take it in, got take another trip
Luggage full of baggage, this pain I'm carrying

It just me and my bros
Playing with keys, the doors are closed
Can't see where I'm going
Godspeed, man can't slow down
Be patient
My brother, be patient
Be patient
My brother, be patient
I got trauma
PTSD from the corner
Skipped school and was outside playing with the wolves
And that shit taught us
Brotherhood
If you got me, my nigga, then I got you
Brotherhood
If you got me, my nigga, then I got you
