Two kids, big city
Raised by a single grandmother,
Different fathers, same mothers,
We are brothers,
Any problems, the other was there,
Something to share, brother was there,
Needed an outfit, brother was there,
Needed a loan, brother was there,
Big game to play, brother was there,
We shared the same struggle,
Its a common struggle,
Two kids, big scene,
Forced to learn to be men through the radio and tv screens,
Recipe for trouble,
When all we really needed was a father to hug us,
and tell us he loved us,
And place no one above us,
Two kids, so sad,
Growing up too fast,
Growing up without dads
We were all we had,
My brother's keeper.
