Текст песни Brother - Jake Isaac

Brother

I fell down, I reached back up
To a hand that was not my colour
Did I dream or did I wake up?
'Cause I’ve never seen this before
Maybe times, they are changing
And this is history making
Either way, when I get up
I’ll do the same for my brother
(Ohh-ohh) Do the same for my brother
You and I, you and I…
The water’s tainted, so I gotta change the source before my daughter tastes it
Over 400 years, man, I’ve been complacent
Ain’t it strange how we fear strangers, when all our tears taste the same as
they run down pained faces? (Selah)
And the blood in our veins runs the same colour, nobody bleeds hatred
And this is the same sky we stand under, every need sacred
And it’s the same Sun that warms my skin from those winter winds
The changes, from within may it begin?
My brother, take courage
History is watching: what will they see?
How will it read? What will they find on our pages? Yeah
Will it be a full stop? Will they see the chain’s drop?
Learn from us what freedom really means
Ooh, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Jake Isaac &
Guvna B
(Ohh-ohh) Do the same for my brother
Yo
Fighting doubts and reservations
I remember times they tried to put me in the station
Hadn’t committed crimes, but the melanin was blatant
Fitted the description of a guy that they were chasin'
Now, the world has had enough, and we ain’t calling bluffs
We’ve been lobbying and protesting, fighting for the love
Back then, when I was on the ground, no one was around
I hope some good Samaritans are coming now, yeah
I fell down, I reached back up
To a hand that was not my colour
Did I dream or did I wake up?
'Cause I’ve never seen this before
Maybe times, they are changing
And this is history making
Either way, when I get up
I’ll do the same for my brother
(Ohh-ohh) Do the same for my brother
You and I…
