Jimblah - Brotherman lyrics

[Chorus: Jimblah] So tell me brotherman You're dead wrong You stole enough cars, got locked up With sistergirl drunk sitting in the front and crashed into a pole And now she's dead And you can't take it back now [Verse 1: Jimblah] For all the dumb sh** we did Tell me brotherman Man you better start learning from your mistakes By the time that you changed hope it's never too late Or far off in the distance reminiscing about the things you did in your past Move one, time is now I have seen a whole lot of heads get caught up in the system Blame the white man for all the problems they get into Enough of that, the bitterness and the hate We could put it in the same place we keep the pain, tucked away Utilise, fuel to the fire This is a phoenix take flight Inspire the uprise enough for people oppressed We ain't sitting in silence like, knowledge is power Key of freedom for the freedom fighter Brother when you feel a lot wiser it's time to re-approach, rock a cipher And life would be enlightened, I wait upon the horizon Think of where we came from, and the fight that's inside [Break: Jimblah] Brotherman, Brotherman For the pain (Brotherman, Brotherman) For the hate (Brotherman, Brotherman) I would do what it takes, Brotherman I can do what it takes Brotherman, Brotherman For the Love (Brotherman, Brotherman) For the Hurt (Brotherman, Brotherman) Against all odds, What up friend For all the dumb sh** we did [Chorus: Jimblah, Jada Alberts] [Verse 2: Jimblah] Friend you got to start learning from your mistakes Before they, lock you in chains, third strikes call your name Constraints hold us down push forward for a Child going through the exact same struggle as you You see it through a consumerism name and it came To the front pages of the newpaper but blatant lies Of misbehaviour, young black male, criminal mind Trying to finally fit in society Here's where to begin for the kids making the same mistakes that I did Head up, brotherman ain't breaking under pressure Forever, I worry blood blessed upon us Remember what we once was, and where we came from For now I sing for freedom What they believe about us couldn't be further from the truth See the truth is that's just what they want us to do Show em proof represent for the mean while it's time to get that proof [Break to Chorus]
