The brothers, the brothers

Yeah, check it out now

Now I'm the baby in the family and I got three siblings

Three older brothers and we trying to make a living

So we hustle and we bubble and we coming up fast

Ain't gon' never be the same since mom and pops past

The oldest one, child prodigy no doubt

Every since he was a kid used to ride a ***** out

All grown up now nice job, nice clout

Nice wife, nice house, tryna take the right route

Treat sis like a queen brother gave me everything

Any time I got in trouble he could probably pull some strings

Walk daddy's footsteps and career same speed

Made the greatest big brother and a father to his own seed

(Uh, oh)

But something happened on the job, he started snappin'

Problems with the wife, winging out and started cappin'

Tried to turn himself in just to make things right

Ended up taking flight 'cause he's not the jail type

Now I got a second brother me and this one was closer

Made me a little tom boy like he was supposed to

Tearing up the place blowing **** in my face

Irresponsible to death parents stayed on his case

Probably 'cause he wanted to be the baby in the family

Drinking with his friends, making up

Mommy carried me, look half way crook getting crazy on the mic

Wasn't really into rap but the **** sound tight

He used to tell me all the time don't wet none sis

By this time next year we gon' be dumb rich

That's when I heard the ill my physical got killed

Just a couple of weeks after signing a record deal

Now somebody gots to bust and have to get a little tough

And on the block round the clock *****s ain't seen nothing

Yeah right, never seen a brother more determined or eager

Moms and pops couldn't see it now we not gonna see it either

Now my last and final brother, kinda something out the norm

Some say part depressed some say part deformed

Record unclean since his early teens

In and out the youth house playing all the crime scenes

Early hangin' with fiends smoking all types of things

He used to chase a basketball now he chasing pipe dreams

From the door, **** was wrong undetected too long

Bugged out when he was little now he big that was wrong

Little too early had to kick him out the house

He just wanted some attention that's what dad was all about

He used to bust down the door moms cry, pops fight

Even family counseling couldn't make this **** right

Word on the street every body wanna do him

From his so called boys to all the chickens he was screwin'

Anybody get the chance, who will probably unload?

How much longer sis got before the last brother gone

Oh no
