| Brian told me sometime long ago that it fades |
| When you’re doing the same thing, pursuing the same dreams |
| I gotta tell him, yeah I know sometimes this life stings |
| Too loud your ears ring, too proud these girls scheme |
| But he knows that, we ain’t no bricks in the wall |
| Shit, we can’t laugh no more without the alchohol |
| And then I see my baby with a smile so bright |
| I can’t live this world without her beautiful light |
| I can’t live this world without fightin my fight |
| But I can’t stop my plight so I just dream every night |
| Athena asks me to please pass the rum |
| I know the future’s callin, best is yet to come |
| My baby asks me to please pass the rum |
| I know the best is yet to come |
| I know the best is yet to come |
| So please please don’t you die on me |
| The trees these they got roots underneath |
| Time for everybody to make their own peace |
| You reap what you sow, so on my knees I’m just like |
| Ease ease, god be easy today |
| Got so much more that I’ve been wantin to say |
| You knew we’d miss our brothers but you took them away |
| So I only got time to play |
| If I only had more time to pray |
| Remember that night on a sacred grave when we played |
| I’ve never been the same way, I think my life changed |
| Then he told me, «give me something I wanna hear |
| Make my problems disappear, no fear but a cold beer yo» |
| I feel ya brian we ain’t no bricks in the wall |
| Shit we can’t laugh no more without the alchohol |
| And then I see my baby with a smile so bright |
| I can’t live this world without her beautiful light |
| I can’t live this world without fightin my fight |
| But I can’t stop my plight so I just dream every night |
| Athena asks me to please pass the rum |
| I know the future’s callin, best is yet to come |
| My baby asks me to please pass the rum |
| I know the best is yet to come |
| I know the best is yet to come |
| So please please don’t you die on me |
| The trees these they got roots underneath |
| Time for everybody to make their own peace |
| You reap what you sow, so on my knees I’m just like |
| Ease ease, god be easy today |
| Got so much more that I’ve been wantin to say |
| You knew we’d miss our brothers but you took them away |
| So I only got time to play |
| If I only had more time to pray |
