Who is my brother?



Who is my brother?
Is it the same son of my mother?
Who cant help me stand
When i fall down

Who is my brother?
Is it that cool fella in my hood?
Who is so obsess with ruth
And love make him a judas

Who is my brother?
Is it that broke chap?
That make the love of money
Get the best of him
And the lives of a human
Means nothing to him

Who is my brother?
Is it the same lad?
Who we sleep together
But cant tell each other the truth

Who is my brother?
Is it the young rich nigga
Who think everyone
Is a gold digger

Who is my brother?
