LYRICS: (Intro) My Brother taught me...
(Verse One) 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 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, never get in a 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 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
(Chorus) 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 honor 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 the elders sacrificed so much so we can be protected, yo’
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 when you are decision making Track record is an invaluable indication When you wanna know the future, you can look towards the past Especially when all you have is this to make a forecast
My brother taught me a lot, so I am grateful And try to return the favor 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
(Chorus)
