Ace Hood - Brothers Keeper lyrics

[Hook] I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper And thou shalt not cross each other in the name of Jesus And thou shalt not testify and go against yo people And thou shalt not speak about it if you ain't never done it Put God first and my family second, ain't nothing above it I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper [Verse 1] I pledge allegiance, my brother's keeper til I'm d**h departed My weed loud so yo bullsh** will get disregarded Get yo money dog and say f** them n***as, cut they head regardless And if you go to war then I'm going too, now it's gangsta party And mama told me don't trust n***as cause they all jealous And if you out of jail this early dawg then you probably tellin Oh Lord, you lookin at one of the realest n***as you done ever seen On New Year's Eve I'm buying 20 choppas for the whole team Getting dirty money but my b**hes clean, they like Listerine Where I come from it's either fake or real, it's no in-between An eye for an eye, all my n***as ride or die All my n***as certified Trill n***as recognize hah! [Hook] I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper And thou shalt not cross each other in the name of Jesus And thou shalt not testify and go against yo people And thou shalt not speak about it if you ain't never done it Put God first and my family second, ain't nothing above it I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper [Verse 2] My best friend got k**ed probably bout a year ago On his front porch for a bag of coke and some indigo I was mad as hell, why the f** he ain't keep that hammer close? I should've been there, I should've gone with him when he had to go Cause this cold world that we livin in it's like 3 below And I'll be goddamned if I'll bury any other of my n***as, no In my home town I had downtown, I've been plottin plenty And if you with a real n***a on some real sh** you won't understand it I'm against the wall, I gotta make some calls, them n***as broke the law I'm in the blue sedan, I got the tool in hand and they comin to talk What's the word homie? All my n***as ride or die n***as ain't safe when them Haitian boys done come drive-by [Hook] I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper And thou shalt not cross each other in the name of Jesus And thou shalt not testify and go against yo people And thou shalt not speak about it if you ain't never done it Put God first and my family second, ain't nothing above it I'm my brother's keeper I am my brother's keeper
