about

This track is my gift, late as it may be, to both of my brothers for their birthdays in August.

lyrics

v.1

i wish early on we could have been closer
maybe then when parents fought i could have just hold ya
i wish early on i could have been bolder
maybe then we wouldn’t have had wait til we were older

to get to know one anothers fears and dreams
to recognize we were on the same team
to get to know that theres life after the screams
to recognize that we just have to believe

if i could id go back save you from the pain
break the chains they put in place
take your place and bear the weight
wait, if only were just that simple
they were fighting demons
you got caught up in the middle

but this aint malcolm, this is not fiction
the scars are real, they were caused by friction
the type created by a parents diction
and now you have to find a way to clear your vision

i can tell you what i see, i can’t save you
but i can tell what i have seen hate do
and over years im becoming more grateful
for my two brothers who i now relate to

v.2

here’s the part where i tell you both i’m proud
i admire you and how youre turning
you inspire me evry time i turn around
playing in the silver lining of the clouds

graphic artist, business minded man
finds a plan don’t give a damn about the thoughts of another man
and so you stand on your word and your potential
and make it happen with a dream and your mental

as ethan finds that everythings as its meant to
even when life seems to bring an end to
everything you thought was ever true
and he’s clever too
found his way to believe that nothing can ever sever you

from the one who truly made us brothers
the one who chose our fathers and our mothers
the one who died because he loves us
and so our bond can never be undone
