Brothers

Hey, I just called to say I love you bro
I'm always out on the road, but I miss you though
Nothing important, nothing wrong at all
I just called to say what's up cause you're my homie so
We got different colours, still brothers till the end
Cause I remember when I didn't have a friend
What the fuck is a man without ingredients?
Nobody showed respect, neglected cause I was different
Yeah, and I remember the words, I was down, I was hurt
You helped me up from the dirt for sure
I was the new kid in town, no father around
You showed me how to punch a bully down to the ground
Y'all was fleeing from war zones
And I was fleeing from being mistreated to a foster home
So fuck a racist, you ain't shit, embrace it, you're nameless
Talking shit about the same brothers that raised me

I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head
I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head

And now we've been through a lot, no longer a chop
From brawling with the squad and brought straight to the dock
And I'mma wave at the cops, I'm pressing the charge
Your guy's angry and hating, I'm killing these bars
The way you treated my mom, she never did any harm
Officer, why you pulling her arm?
Man everybody is human, black or white, drug abusers
I'm choosing to go shoot and fight for the losers
They're never seen on the scene
They out there fighting a demon, a reason, keep reaching for peace and
I ain't standing here preaching, I'm standing here speaking
To you instead of feeling so sorry for the weak men
Bullies used to mess up my life, my brothers taught me to fight
I swung right, them bullies outta my sight
And this friendship's so beautiful
We've been through it all from parties to the funerals

I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head
I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head

Guess I'm trying to say that I'm thankful
Not only to my friends but to my fans too
Without you, I would've been stuck in my bedroom
Not a single show, but you took my videos and you shared them
My random thoughts on a piece of fucking paper
Don't call me a rap saviour, just trying to be greater
Big dreams ever since I was a shit kid
Never did any drugs, but the music got me so addicted
And everybody who thought I was nameless
Showing disgrace and chased me, no place to feel safe in
Yes I remember their faces back in the days
When I picked up and tried to save my
Broken CDs from the seedy payments
They tried to fuck up my dreams, wanted no marks on the scene
I was shocked, not even close to give in
But I fought my way up, got doper than a player
Cause I can roast a bunch of folks, I told you hoes
I lay up and shoot, I'm great, so fatal and boost
How brave I stay in my shoes and I'mma slay all these fools
They trying to say what you ain't able to do
I hate on every dude, they trying to play you for loot
I boost, speak the truth
Yeah, suicide ain't ever got to me
Brainwashing factory, insane with all this fuckery
Man, it's just me and my brothers
Family and the closest, I know this
World is so hopeless, still love it
Till it's over

I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head
I guess that I'm just trying to say that I'm thankful
So fucking grateful for giving me hope
When I was feeling alone
You are my brothers in my head
