Brother Lyrics

    You should be happy with what you got...
    You should be hard to be a brother...
    You should be happy with what we give you...

    Hand over my face. I am related to my enemy.
    My house on fire,
    And my big brother come put the blame on me.

    He's a-pushin'...I'm being pushed from above.
    Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
    Better back off of him.

    You should not questioh at all his authority...

    Use a flag as a bandage.
    Stick 'em up, show us your pocket hypocrisy.
    In the closet, my pleasures
    'Cause my big brother don't want to just let me be.

    Oh, and I'm pushin'...oh if I could get above...
    Oh, and a brother back to back back,
    Keep your back off.
    Oh, and I'm pushin'...I'm being pushed from above.
    Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
    Better back off of him...

    Face down...brother...
    Face down... [3X]

    In my mind there's a clearing.
    Black clouds flow through grey still skies.
    And the birds don't even whisper.
    I'm flying out...I'm flying...

    Back to back back, better back off...
    Back to back to back, a better, better, better...
    Back to back to back, back to back back...brother...
    Face down...brother...
    Face down...
    Face down...brother...
    Face down...almost...fired...
    Face down...I got a gun...
    Face down...
    I got a gun...I got a gun...
    Face down...I got a gun...
    Face down...

    Aah, fuck it, I'm just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin' TV...
    Watch the nightly news and drink a beer...
    Like I could even change the world, yeah right...
