My Brother Taught Me... |
| My Brother taught me, be an eagle in the sky, see things from afar |
| Don’t get too close before you find out where you are |
| Like a curious rodent getting caught by a viper snake |
| Don’t wanna rub shoulders with anyone, there’s all type of snakes |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me to enhance the lives of others |
| You don’t wanna be the type of person people run for cover from |
| If you can’t bring something beneficial |
| Then there is absolutely no point in handing out your issues |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me, never get in fight |
| Unless it’s push come to shove and you defending your life |
| Cos it’s too easy to die in a world that’s so violent |
| So I step like these people don’t see me, I’m ultraviolet |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me I should learn from observation |
| It’s either that or learning the hard way in situations |
| You never need to do everything to know the outcome |
| So even though I rhyme I use my eyes more than my mouth runs |
| (My Brother taught me) |
| These are the things my Brother taught me, helped to support me |
| Cos they informed, me sent his wisdom towards me |
| And I’m a little older now and living lower down |
| Carrying the world on my shoulders now |
| Verse Two |
| My Brother taught me to honour those who came before me |
| Even if someone upset me and I feel defamatory |
| Cos there’s something bout' a person with age to be respected |
| And elders sacrificed so much so we can be protected, yo' |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me to never go backwards |
| Forgiving and forgetting ain’t the same, his exact words |
| You can forgive a wrong if there’s remorse and there’s admission |
| But you never ever put yourself back in the same position |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me when you are decision making |
| Track record is an invaluable indication |
| When you wanna know the future, you can look at the past |
| Especially when all you have is this to make a forecast |
| (my Brother taught me), my Brother taught me a lot, so I am grateful |
| And try return the favour at times when he’s unstable |
| I love him in a way that’s far removed from Cain and Abel |
| From the cradle to the grave, from the grave to the cradle |
