Brother

[Intro Chorus: Danny Worsnop]
I lost my way again, through the storm, through the wind
I'm falling short of what I became in the end
Everybody told me not to go, but my whole life I have known
That I'm something, that I'm something more, oh, oh-oh

[Verse 1: Ronnie Radke]
Yesterday, my brother died, drivin' to work, damn
This shit really hurts, man, I'm feelin' no worth
There were so many things I needed to say to you first
Now what the fuck am I supposed to do, bro?
Your kids are really missing you too, though
And dad is acting crazy, and I had my first baby
And I broke up with my lady, old news
Woah, wait a minute, you mean to tell me
You're never coming back, but you need to help me
And I can understand why you're sad, my brother
And I know you hated mother, but we had each other
And I know it seems like it was never enough
When the goin' got tough, we would never show love
'Cause the love that we needed was high on drugs
And I know she didn't mean it, but we're way too young

[Chorus: Danny Worsnop]
I lost my way again, through the storm, through the wind
I'm falling short of what I became in the end
Everybody told me not to go, but my whole life I have known
That I'm something, that I'm something more

[Verse 2: Ronnie Radke]
My mother died, a while ago, she isn't really dead
But in my head though, she is, when she did the unspeakable sin
And walked out on her kids, you expect me to forgive?
Now that's fucked up, not even a letter or call!
Now I'm supposed to pretend that you weren't a terrible mom?
It's my first day of school and my night at the prom
I'm supposed to be calm? That's terribly wrong!
And now I have a kid that I cannot see
'Cause my baby mama fucking hates me lately
But I'll be damned if my daughter grows up without her father
And through the roughest waters, I promise that I will watch her
Lies and truths of every ounce of power
'Til my final hours, I will know about her
Mother, you're a coward and your addiction devoured
Heather Freeman is your name
And that's what I will call you from now on

[Chorus: Danny Worsnop]
I lost my way again, through the storm, through the wind
I'm falling short of what I became in the end
Everybody told me not to go, but my whole life I have known
That I'm something, that I'm something more

[Verse 3: Ronnie Radke]
So any children out there right now
Knowin' if a parent has left you, or a sibling close has died
It's okay to cry, you gotta get past this
Why? 'Cause the fucking sadness passes, dry your eye!
Lift your head up to the sky, keep your chin up, it's time
Be strong for once in your lifetime
You fight for the right to be happy
Even if the circumstances are crappy
The light at the end that you can't see
Just know now that I understand (Stand)
Even if you aren't a fan of my band
I am glad (Glad) that you took a piece of this song and ran
To a better place than where you're at
I am glad I can help you on this road we travel
Through unwanted turns through the dirt and gravel
The battle's almost over, the hassle of closure is closer to the end
Like a soldier, you must keep your composure

[Chorus: Danny Worsnop]
I lost my way again, through the storm, through the wind
I'm falling short of what I became in the end
Everybody told me not to go, but my whole life I have known
That I'm something, that I'm something more
