Текст песни Affliction - Lyte

It's hard to keep pushing when you are not here
That promise of forever it resulted in my only fear
The streets we grew up on see our brothers they don't make it there
I close my eyes and many nights I seen you appear
Know my time for us to meet again it is coming near
You were my only brother only through the pain that our mothers shared
Promised em no harm our way I failed you please lend me a final ear
Hear what I had to tell fore your spirited cleared
Bro I Love You
Wish I believed you were breathing heaven's air
But the pain you caused mother's was more than God prepared
Now I don't trust em, passing your block I feel kinda weird
Whoever got you flattened my world, and only cause its sphere
Empty half of the round at him what we instill in hemisphere
Taught me about escalators, send a brother up for long stairs
You held me up through living hell, now your living hell I hold you up even if only as a pallbearer

Why did you leave me (I can't face this alone without my brother, swear that I done had enough)
The pain's all I see (Nowadays I can't even face your mother, stay steady banging these colours)
How we gonna be free (I seen these youngins running amok, still seek to follow their orders)
Now this purpose heals me (still I see no love for one another, God don't visit were we from)

Years later could finally write it down how I feel
16 your brother ain't supposed to be getting killed
Somebody ever tested us I'd uh peel and fight an appeal
I sat and tried to figure out a way to get myself to heal
You said that I'm the best you are why I believe me
Taught me don't depend on outside and that's how I could be
Forever not a slave, knew better and still indebted to the streets
Many days you banged with hungry stomach so we could eat
That's why your family good as soon as this rapping peaks
Hard it is my words on wax to you bro
I found this beat, and tears fled when I jotted with lead
Want you to know when I got it together and wiped my cheek
That when the streets grow cold
And I don't have my bro
And I no Power I believe
This ain't a song no more
Keep your voice in my phone
So you still lift me up when weak

Why did you leave me (I can't face this alone without my brother, swear that I done had enough)
The pain's all I see (Nowadays I can't even face your mother, stay steady banging these colours)
How we gonna be free (I seen these youngins running amok, still seek to follow their orders)
Now this purpose heals me (still I see no love for one another, God don't visit were we from)

And now the pain fades I could walk away
I've stayed at your Gods pace and I forgot your face

You taught me how to build, the hood showed you how to architect
For the streets you claimed I've lost all respect
Your physical is gone and now it's on to the next
I pray do not forget your face
It's been 4 years your moms saying it's time to let you go
Still visit where you sleep to let you know I'm keeping on keeping on on the road
That we said we'd ride together, but it's weird just before you died you said
I can't share this ride with bro
You started cutting all ties
Only I seen your disguise
All through to the hurt in your eyes
Is that why you
Damn, you knew you were die
I miss you but it's nothing you could say to me for all those years that I died bro

Why did you leave me (I can't face this alone without my brother, swear that I done had enough)
The pain's all I see (Nowadays I can't even face your mother, stay steady banging these colours)
How we gonna be free (I seen these youngins running amok, still seek to follow their orders)
Now this purpose heals me (still I see no love for one another, God don't visit were we from)
