Oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh the pressure, pressure,
oh, oh,
When we were young life was so unjust
at times i felt it was just us
mamma working so hard to put food on the table,
all on her own she sacrificed, even when my sisters and brothers die,
somehow she stayed strong i never saw her cry,
i was the oldest and responsibility was so immense, the tension,
we disagreed so i left, at the time i felt she hated me,
Told me to be strong, told me to hang on,
hug me tight and said big sister it'll be alright
(chorus):
brother...i love ya,
little brother...i think out for you everyday,
little brother...i love ya,
little brother...and i prey he'll never take you away,
When my soul withered and i lived in the dark,
and emptiness, it filled my heart you never stopped holding me up,
never stopped trying to open me up,
and the days and nights i spent stressin,
the years i spent in depression, this is my confession,
thought about ending it sometimes but the second you crossed my mind i knew i could never leave you,
make me forte u set me free to this day all i say and do,
i owe it to you,
(chorus)
Ooh...n i would lie for you,
cry for you,
ride or die for you,
touch the sky for you,
if you asked me to,
there's nothing i wont do,
I took this life for joke,
i would drink or smoke to ease away the pain and forget the memories in my brain,
but you helped me to stop the rain.....
oh brother, brother,
(chorus with background repeat to fade)
