letra de for the brothers who ain't here - two kings in a cipher
[refrain]
let’s do it for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (hey)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (here, oh)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (here, oh)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (here)
[verse 1]
this is for the brothers who ain’t here
for the strong brothers missin’ in action
mentally and physically
somebody, tell me what happеned
like my main man, big willie grant
who was shot in thе back by two new york city cops
the day before his 21st birthday
and remember that dime store pimp smooth mac daddy
he has seven children by six different woman
and the brother never got married
yo, ain’t three of his kids on crack
for shaka hannibal found strangled in his crib
after coming home from a black [?] force meeting
and for my man, larry riverspoon
remember larry? (yeah i sure did)
he worked his way through college then he tried to marry some caucasian woman
too bad, she was the boss’s daughter
so this is for the brothers who ain’t here
for the strong brothers missing in action
for the brothers, that’s right the brothers
who ain’t here
[refrain]
the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(let’s do it for the brothers yuh)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(do it for the brothers, yeah)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(done left and gone nowhere)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (here)
[verse 2]
this is for the brothers who ain’t here
for all the strong brothers who could’ve made a difference
i could scream until my voice disappears
think until my head burst
write until my fingers fall off
fight until i can’t fight no more
but that would just make me sane
and i’m insane
that’s right, crazy as h-ll
off my rocker, out of my mind
just like those brothers who ain’t here
those money makers, those back breakers, those no stuff takers, the city shakers and revolution makers
for the brothers who ain’t around no more
the community protectors, devil rejectors, god reflectors, and the black woman lovers
this is for the brothers
the brothers who ain’t here
[refrain]
the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (oh, hey hey)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(say what’s doing for the brothers)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (shame)
for the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here (here)
(oh, shame for the brothers, yeah)
the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(we just want some time with them, yeah)
the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
the brothers, the brothers who ain’t here
(do it for the brothers, yeah)
brothers, brothers who ain’t (do, yeah)
here
my, my, my brother (should do it for my brothers)
my, my, my brother (do it for my brothers)
my, my, my brother (do it for the brothers)
my, my, my brother (do it for my brothers)
my, my, my brother
my, my, my brother (yeah)
my, my, my brother
my, my, my brother (sing it)
my, my, my brother (sing a little louder)
my, my, my brother (sing a little louder now)
my, my, my brother (sing it for the people now)
my, my, my brother (sing a little louder)
my, my, my brother
my, my, my brother
my, my, my brother
