letra de my morning star - brother elio
[verse 1]
the dust on the helmet is older than me
you loved the smell of the gasoline
riding the moto through the cold of the day
you were my first fan, in your own quiet way
you left the sand and the sun in algiers
traded the warmth for a pocket of faith
met mom in the city, a collision of light
you said you knew it was end game, first sight
three kids in the backseat, tight grip on the rickshaw
you were my universe, you were our infinity
[chorus]
you were firm with the calf, but soft with the glovе
terrified we’d fall apart
didn’t want us to know thе hunger you knew
so you built us a castle out of red, white, and blue
i’m proud of the blood, yeah, i’m proud of our name
even if god treated you like a trash can
[verse 2]
the cancer moved fast, like a thief in the night
stole the breath from your nose, stole the sparks from the fight
i hated the cross, i hated the pew
i hated the lord who took me from you
i sat in the garage with the engine running cold
wishing i’d never have to get old
i wanted to join you, go where the warriors finally have some peace
just to see you again in the middle of my dream
[bridge]
but mom was still standing there, shaking and small
so i had to get up, i had to stand tall
i put on your boots and i packed up the scream
focus on work, k!ll the american dream
be the best, be the first, never let them see
the deranged boy inside of me
then he walked in, with his courtship and his grace
elio, taking up all of the sp-ce
i wanted to beat him, i wanted to win
but looking at him felt like letting an angel in
[chorus]
you were firm with the calf, but soft with the glove
terrified we’d fall apart
didn’t want us to know the hunger you knew
so you built us a castle out of red, white, and blue
i’m proud of the blood, yeah, i’m proud of our name
even if god treated you like piece of sh-t
[outro]
he taught me to feel when i wanted to choke
he showed me the beauty behind all the smoke
i remember your voice, right at the end
whispering secrets like you were my friend
“live like it’s ending, live like it’s the last”
this is me trying, papa
i’m letting go of the past
’cause i have a daughter now
and she looks just like you
