Brother - Amy Winehouse

Brother

It's so much that i could never say to your face

But by now

You should know the world and all its ways

So find your place

How do i find words that do not condescend

When she bore you before me

'Cause she doesn't need a child she needs a friend

A son not a sob story ooh

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

And your priority it must be heard

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

'Cause we'll never be the way we were oh

She can't always be there just to hold you down

Our mother

When you are at a age now well life turns around

My brother

Realize that you don't have to answer to no man

Responsibility comes down to you

But how can i expect you to understand

When you live life like it's so run-through

Ooh

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

And your priority it must be heard

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

'Cause we'll never be the way we were

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

At your priority it must be her

Now you look out for her the way she did for you

'Cause we'll never be the way we were

The way we were

We'll never be

At your priority it must be her
