Brothers

(album: Searching For Strawberries: The Story Of Jongo Bongo - 2023)

Brothers are forever
And I'm sure lucky you are mine

I love the way we can play
3 sports in a day
Talking shit to each other
We don't mean what we say
It's just that brother time
I love my brother time

Well, big bro, another lap
Times really flown by fast
Feels like yesterday
You guys threw me in the shower (I snapped)

You left on a scholarship, aged 18
I was sad man, didn't let you see
Cried all night, I missed my bro
Who would I hang with, when you were on the road?

I was such a curious kid
Getting into shit, that you never did
You wouldn't ever rat me out
You had my back, even though we'd bout

When we get old and grey
I hope we don't live far away
We can battle on 3 different courts
Eat after, talking life and sports

If there's anyone, I owe it all to
Man, It's absolutely you
You showed me the way
And I learned from you, every damn day

Brothers are forever
And I'm sure lucky you are mine

I love the nights that we write, making rhymes real tight
It don't matter where you are, I'll be on the next flight
For some brother time
I love my brother time

Let's take it back, I was just a kid
You threw a shaker, as you often did
Seems like yesterday, I partied with your friends
I loved those (s)kids!

You showed us punk, killer bands
Like Rancid, Offspring, a new young fan
I found Blink, first ever show
You and I standing in the front row

Years went by, on separate paths
Then a hell of a trip fell on our laps
Who'd have guessed? True chemistry
We got this forever, you and me

When we get old and grey
I hope we don't live far away
We can write some classic tunes
Till we're 90 fucking 3

If there's anyone, I look up to
Man, it's absolutely you
You show me the way
And I learn from you every damn day

Brothers are forever
And I'm sure lucky you are mine

Brothers are forever
And I'm sure lucky you are mine
