[Intro: Gio.B]
Gio.B
That's right
[Verse 1: Gio.B]
Hidden stories are the best stories to ever tell
I'm wondering how my brother isn't locked in a cell
Or underground. I thank God for keeping him safe
He should probably be dead for the things he did back in the day
Now, I love my brother; I ain't tryna put him on blast
But I think about our future if he didn't have that past
We could've probably been closer. Man, we ain't talking
We don't open our lips unless we speak about boxing
Was it the d**, or friends that kept him from home?
The marijuana had him paranoid, feeling alone
Man, we love you; mom's trying to hug you
But it's your little hooligan friends that you look up to
Man I looked up to you, that's how it's always been
When in reality, bro, you were my farthest friend
But all your mistakes have taught me wrong from right
I love you, though you'll never hear this song in all your life
[Hook: Gio.B]
You were my role model growing up in the household
Seeing you struggle, it was a ha**le
All the things you've been through
But I wanted to be just like you
You were my role model in the household
Saw you stop smoking weed, that was a milestone
And we're proud of you
Brother, I looked up to you
[Verse 2: Gio.B]
Yeah, late nights - you ain't home
Mom's up praying for the unknown
Hoping that you're safe, we're hoping you're alive
Tears running down her cheeks, rivers out her eyes
She's worried, we're worried. Did you ever care?
Never knew where you were, you could be anywhere
Getting high with your homies, and you're underage drinking
Hanging with gangsters, what the hell were you thinking?!
You're in danger! But to that you're no stranger
Tagging on walls, getting in fights to get out the anger
And I understand, you grew up with a rough life
But you need to stay strong to show your brother it's alright
I looked up to you. Brother you're my role model
So put down the blunt, put down the Patron bottle
Beefing with other crews, putting your life at stake
Think they care about you? You're just another soul to take
With no hesitation, they'll take it in a second
Happy to take a life like they're taking a blessin'
And for what? (For what?) Three letters of a crew?
So what will I become if I've looked up to you?
[Outro: Gio.B]
You were my role model growing up in the household
All the things you've been through
But I wanted to be just like you
We're proud of you
Brother, I looked up to you
Uh, B.Truthful
