about
This track was originally meant to be one of my "big" songs off the upcoming album "The GOD of WAR". However I am opting to give this track to Haiti to help in the few ways that I can
lyrics
Be my brother

Everybody wonder why we never get it done still march still singing we shall overcome
We still get over run we still waiting for the promise land to come till we over and done
Here’s my solution it may seem like I over simplified it but till this day nobody ever really emphasized it
it’s simple but it ain’t easy see the problem is we so brainwashed that u probably won’t believe me
it go Be my brother or don’t be nothing at all nothing to big nothing to small together to rise never to fall stand tall back to back yall legendary it’s u-n-i- verse all!
(That’s universal)
TRUST that I’m the first u should call we play both sides of the corner with our backs to the wall
but that’s not all what’s ill is how we both stay motivated regardless if the other gets frustrated

Now I ain’t much for making pointless friend I’m pointed to the point I’m tryna reach a pinnacle you gotta feel my point I mean it rather literal
I’ll treat u like my physical I’ll love u in the spiritual
they put a cancer deep inside us and Willie lynch lore saw em find ways to divide us and compromise us
and so we focus on our difference instead of building on our common interest and giving one another assistance
we gotta stop tryna out do
stop tryna compare
stop being greed
stop being scared to share
Cooperate consolidate collaborate MAKE intertwine fate elevate mind state meditate on the greatest great realizing all things do relate and recreate
if your bother hurt then u hurt worse and if he end up in a hearse then u’ll understand this verse
- chorus-
Be my brother or don’t be nothing at all nothing to big nothing to small together to rise never to fall stand tall back to back yall legendary it’s u-n-i- verse all!
(That’s universal)

Look here I need my brother I feel alone and isolated and I’m getting frustrated with the life we’ve created
and momma swore that we could make it and as she grows old she see the love between brother once straight now fold
Look here I need my brothers I took a real bold stand like a man and tho I did the best that I can
it aint enough I need someone to back me up and tho I ‘m strong it won’t be long till I get crushed
and then what?? Another brother lost to the cause just because u aint think to stand up for yours
be my brother or don’t be nothing at all .. and if these kings don’t unite then the empire falls
we gotta stop talking for talking sake stop being so fake let ya word be ya bond and don’t let the bond break
let the world see our bond and we can make the wicked shake be my brother I guarantee we’ll make the earthquake!
