Brotherhood Lyrics by Nomi Ruiz

0

We were from Sunset Park the rebels no one rollin' with us
Taught me the right way to cheat and how to roll a dutch
Hid my man from mom up in the barber shop
Hooked me up with your main man you met in Rikers Isle
Took the blame when mom found the dro up in my Frankie B's
By the name of Tattoo Al my bigger brother see
You paint the picture of the man I love cause since
Daddy went and disowned me you're #1 above
He never will know the pain I saw
All your blood on our brand new sheets a gang fucking war
How many times did mom just up and throw you out
Fucked me up I never knew when you would be coming around
Hope you understand mom was always in the right
Came to us to heal your wounds hoody up then out to fight
Remember summertime riding in your Maxima
Driving by the Verrazano parking just to spark it up
Late night conversation in the park telling me
Not to fuck with blow or niggas from the block
Tell me how I could conceive that your were never there
Another man who comes and goes as if he never cared
And now I put it all in the past
And I watch as you and I fall down the hour glass
Time passes and now I see
How your love wasn't clear to me
I was watching with the wrong eyes in spite
Of what we've been through I'm gonna love you more each day
And though you feel away I feel your brotherhood
Feel it
And now I see your love wasn't clear to me
I was watching with the wrong eyes in spite
Of what we've been through I'm gonna love you more each day
And though you feel away I feel your brotherhood
Feel your brotherhood
