Lyrics Jhene Aiko – For My Brother
Text:
Oh yeah oh oh oh oh
Waves of sadness crashing against the shores of unsureness
So hard for me to understand when doctors they cannot cure this
I wish I could take away your pain
Man I just want you to be okay
Man I just wish I could erase this
I know that life has a funny way
So I’m not complaining
And while I still got you here, still got you here
I hope that you can hear this
Don’t give up, don’t give up on us
I just want you to hear this
Don’t give up on us
See when you were two I was born
And when I was two you were four
And when I was four you were six
And now I’m just sitting here reminiscing
You are more than just my brother
We grew up just like best friends
I know that nothing last forever
But I don’t want this to end so…
Don’t give up, don’t give on us
I just want you to hear this
Don’t give up on us
I love you til your last breath
Til the last drop past death
Til forever ends and that’s never
Man I won’t stop loving you ever
Do you understand, til your last breath
Til forever end and that’s never
Man I won’t give up on your ever
Please just hear this
Sometimes you gotta walk through the darkness
To get to the light
Sometimes you gotta get through the wrong shit
To get to the right (oh right)
No matter how hard life gets you still gotta fight (fight for me)
Sometimes you gotta walk through the darkness
To get to the light
And if love is real and love can heal
Then on the real I would die for you
Said if love is real and love can heal
Then on the real I would die for you
So don’t give up, don’t give up, don’t give up on us
(I would die for you)
I know you hear this
Don’t give up, Don’t give up on us
I know that you can hear this
Don’t give up, don’t give up on us
(And if love is real and love can heal then on the real I would die for you)
Sometimes you gotta walk through the darkness to get to the light
(Said if love is real and love can heal then on the real I would die for you)
Sometimes you gotta go through the wrong shit to get to the right
No matter how hard life gets, you still gotta fight
I’ll never give up on you I’ll never give up all right
(If it’s one thing that you taught me it’s how to fight)
I’ll never give up on you I’ll never give up all right
So don’t give up (you still gotta fight) so don’t give up
Please don’t give up
I had a dream last night
And everything was alright
And you were walking and you were talking just like
Everything was alright and I know
It was for a reason I won’t stop believing I won’t
(If it’s one thing you taught me it’s how to fight)
And if the angels call your name
Baby please tell them you’re staying
And if the angels call your name
Baby please tell them that you’re staying
I know that you can hear this
I know that you can
Don’t give up, don’t give up on us
Hear me (don’t give up)
Hear this
Please hear this, hear this
Die without you I would die without you
Die without you I would die without you
I would die without you I would die without you
I, Yes, I’ll die without you I’ll die without you
So don’t give up on us
