[Verse 1:Michael Felker]
Dear brother, it kills me to keep this inside
It kills me
It kills me to separate from you
Don’t always assume the worst of me
If love is an extension of my own selfishness, then I viewed you like a personal golden crown
They say family comes first, yet, I’ve left you to the fields to perish
Perish
[Pre-Chorus]
(I know I can’t save you)
I can't do this any more
We are an endless war
[Chorus]
Dear brother, I can't save you
Can't change your mind after all we’ve been through
All I ever wanted was to save your soul
Dear brother, what have we come to?
Forgive me now I just have to tell you
This love comes from the most sincere of places
[Verse 2]
Was it from mother’s disconnection or the family’s divorce?
I have no answers, do you think they feel remorse?
Something’s gotta give
Something’s gotta change your mind
God, save my brothers soul
Show me a way to make him whole
Don’t leave him behind; this brother of mine
Don’t leave him behind; this brother of mine
[Pre-Chorus]
(I know I can’t save you)
I can't do this any more
We are an endless war
[Chorus]
Dear brother, I can't save you
Can't change your mind after all we’ve been through
All I ever wanted was to save your soul
Dear brother, what have we come to?
Forgive me now, I just have to tell you:
This love comes from the most sincere of places
[Verse 3: Rory Rodriguez, Michael Felker & Both]
Brother, how could there be a God who watches his children burn?
I tried to believe but my eyes can’t see the one you follow so damn blindly
Forgive my wayward actions; these words come from concern
From dust we came and dust we return
I know there’s more to life—won’t you take a look around
Will we burn in hell or simply rot in the ground?
We are both one in the same, despite our belief
My soul is safer without these false beliefs
Time heals all wounds
Time heals all wounds
We are bound by blood
[Outro: Michael Felker]
Brother, I’ll carry your cross for you until my bones break
You said yourself, “It’s never too late to change”
