That’s my brother but I don’t know him
He don’t know my name I am a number
Met him one day and loved him like my brother the next

I know to ride or die
I know to look straight he got my back
If he fall I will fall too
If he trip I’m untying my shoes and trip too
I’m on your tail if your in his face

Ain’t no flex either your my brother or with the others
If you look back there’s no trust
We don’t have the same blood but the same love
I didn’t know him months ago but I know him now
He not just my brother they all my brother and I’m behind them every step of the way through hell.
