Brothers (feat. Ken Block Of Sister Hazel)
One day my brother,
was cornered in the gym
By a kid twice his size,
so that's when I stepped in
I got a black eye and a bloody lip
It took us both to get that bully whipped
As he was limpin',
we both had no doubt
That's what being brothers is about
It's about standing up for one another
Back-to-back there's nothing stronger
It's a hand to lift you up
when you're knocked down
That's what being brothers is about
At 19 he's a young Marine,
his new wife's having twins
I can't believe he'll have boys of his own, I'm so proud of him
The family's here to say a prayer
and send him off to war
I tell him "I'm going too,
somebody's gotta watch over you", our mama breaks down
But that's what being brothers is about
It's about standing up for one another
Back-to-back there's nothing stronger
It's a hand to lift you up when you're knocked down
That's what being brothers is about
Turns out that he's the one
that took a bullet meant for me...
He came home with a scar, and they gave him a Purple Heart.
He told me, "You'd have done the same for me cuz that's how brothers are."
Watching him with his boys, it makes me proud to see
The men they're growing up to be.
I hope they learn the same thing we figured out
And understand what being brothers is about.
I'll always have your back, and I'll never let you down
Cuz that's what being brothers is about...
was cornered in the gym
By a kid twice his size,
so that's when I stepped in
I got a black eye and a bloody lip
It took us both to get that bully whipped
As he was limpin',
we both had no doubt
That's what being brothers is about
It's about standing up for one another
Back-to-back there's nothing stronger
It's a hand to lift you up
when you're knocked down
That's what being brothers is about
At 19 he's a young Marine,
his new wife's having twins
I can't believe he'll have boys of his own, I'm so proud of him
The family's here to say a prayer
and send him off to war
I tell him "I'm going too,
somebody's gotta watch over you", our mama breaks down
But that's what being brothers is about
It's about standing up for one another
Back-to-back there's nothing stronger
It's a hand to lift you up when you're knocked down
That's what being brothers is about
Turns out that he's the one
that took a bullet meant for me...
He came home with a scar, and they gave him a Purple Heart.
He told me, "You'd have done the same for me cuz that's how brothers are."
Watching him with his boys, it makes me proud to see

I hope they learn the same thing we figured out
And understand what being brothers is about.
I'll always have your back, and I'll never let you down
Cuz that's what being brothers is about...
