11. BROTHERS
This track is basically for my best friend, visualizing how I'd want it to be if I made the ultimate sacrifice for him and gave up my life in a car accident so that he could survive. The beat is somber and slow, but there's raw emotion in it. 11: BROTHERS Verse 1: Let me go-- They're delivering my eulogy And the lies they say are amusing me... Don't regret-- You didn't hear that Honda blaring loud Barrelling down the road that night Death's a battle That one can't fight... Is to let me, let me go I don't regret my actions 'Cause if I did I'd be standing here... Instead of you So let this be my final gift I give Me and my empty pockets Your eyes running like a faucet I'd rather have lost it this way... Remember when-- We were youngsters Running up the block We skinned our knees And picked the locks Ripped them off the parked bikes Who knew that the adult life sucked? And now I'm letting go-- Hanging by the thinnest thread Discharged from the clinic's bed This is how I exit left... Don't resuscitate-- Don't attempt to bring me back to life Or fuck up this last sacrifice What happened that night's Meant to be... And I don't blame you-- But I hope you know... Bridge: The biggest kick-- What I will miss This chance to say goodbye to you... Chorus: 'Cause no one ever knew me Like you do... So let go... Let go... Let go... Let go... 2007 by Sock-rat
