[Intro]
Being a brother to you
Being a brother to you

[Verse 1]
Back in the old days, I didn't know
Then it was, "Bye-bye, me" to remember my friend
But I was always taught there ain't 'nough a go around
Deep in the culture, the wounding lays saying
"You ain't there 'til you claim on a prize"
And I was out chasing tails, feet off the ground

[Chorus]
Being a brother to you wasn't easy for me
Head full of toxic scenes and other people's dreams
Oh, my days, what a waste
If I can turn it back, make the change
I have missed your face, your mind, your company

[Verse 2]
So much feeling in a heart of stone
But too much pride to pick up the phone
I ran and took for granted you'd be there
'Cause we are brothers of the soul
We drove it like we stole it
All these years of holding back how much I care
[Chorus]
Being a brother to you wasn't easy for me
Head full of toxic scenes and other people's dreams
Oh, my days, what a waste
If I can turn it back, make the change
I have missed your face, your mind, your company
Your company
And the easy feeling free as it used to be, oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Being a brother to you
Being a brother to you

[Bridge]
Being a brother to you
Here is my heart, just so you know
Here is my heart, just so you know
Being a brother to you
Here is my call you up, my tender touch, my miss you much
Oh, here is my heart, just so you know

[Chorus]
Being a brother to you wasn't easy for me
Head full of toxic scenes and other people's dreams
Oh, my days, what a waste
If I can turn it back, make the change
I have missed your face, your mind, your company
