My Brother

What you're trying to tell me G

If I walk down to the corner and shop I'm a goner

A Bodega is a no-no so where should I get my grub

Without you idiots trying to rub -- me out

Cause I'm the victim on your main route

You take me out and you might get some clout

Anger is driving around in a red Wrangler

Looking for all you black stranglers

To squeeze your reasoning try to find the answer

You try to rob you'll get a Jolly Rancher

For ya dragon, brotherly strength and gaggin

Put away the gun son, run

for cover, seek sanctuary with your mother

Ahh my brother

My brother four times

Take the time to check the clock and don't smother

Other being when both are already fleeing

From the same oppression, the lesson

here has been ignored for many years and years

Fears has created many hostile years

Hoover sustained the first hate maneuver

Jiggaboo and now I have to also be afraid of you

Think like Brown or Franklin and be thanking

The one you pray to, they're after you too

Don't try to switch, they're not after no other

But us my brother

Mississippit Burning gets my stomach churning and yearning

I d on't care how much we're earning

Each year we dissipate in the air yeah

Change our line of thought put away the damn quart

of brew the intoxicated crew knew

We couldn't come hither if we're destroying our liver

So what should we do earn our little pittance

And act real ignorant just like the Buttmins

Put away our t hings and sing a different sound

Come home and you might get beat down

Down down down you won't touch no other

Why not no other, my brother
