Brotherhood

My brother still cries out most nights He still ain't got over my uncles life I try to come over a couple nights a week To have a little chat to make sure the n***a is sweet I have to remind myself the future's bright And bring a spliff to my lips at almost every night I use to flip a zip almost fucking every day I'm fucking lucky that I didn't catch an indictment You see the old days were full of excitement Nothing to fear with the lads by my side dem And if a c*nt was abrupt then we would fight dem Into our brotherhood protect and revive them And tell them f*ck any cunt that don't like them But still my brother still cries every night He can't get over my uncles life Yeah yeah yeah And it kills me that I can't heal him Protect him like he used to do for me And when I was outside dodgy dealing He took the blame and he said it weren't me But now my brother still cries most evenings I wish, I wish he could get over his grief I wish I could take the pain he's feeling And transport all the shit into me Woah, woah woah my eyes well up I force myself to get up and take it on the chin My mate Charlie, Charlie's under pressure Three little children inside his little army But but the govna he's got PTSD His cousin Tommy died and he can't let it be I tell him talk talk talk to anybody Especially geeza, geeza please talk to me Sixteen and we shared a fucking bed Me Charlie, Taylor, Leon and Terry-E And when I didn't have anywhere to sleep My mate Shearburke yeah he let me stay at his Fucking Brotherhood we have it fucking deep That's how it goes man when you come out the east But still my brother before he sleeps My Nanny had a stroke but she's still a fucking G And it kills me that I can't heal him Protect him like he would do for me And when I was outside dodgy dealing He took the blame and he said it weren't me But now my brother still cries most evenings Because he cannot get over his grief I wish I could take away the pain he's feeling And transport all that shit into me And I gotta gotta keep these tears in Cause if I let em out I got no hope I can't swim I said I said I said And I gotta gotta keep these tears in Cause if I let em out I got no hope I can't swim I said I said I said And I gotta gotta keep these tears in Cause if I let em out I got no hope I can't swim Oh, Oh Oh Oh
