[Intro]
Why your older brother had volunteered for the Navy, in 1939
But, uh, I think he got caught very much like so many of the other people
That got caught in this (no more) recent Gulf War (Navy)
He joined the Navy to (at war) go to college, go to school (yeah yeah)
Navy, these hands are torn
Navy at war, no more
I can't do it no more
[Verse]
Mama and my sister had my back when I went the wrong way
When I went the wrong way
Mama told me, boy don't change
Yeah, said boy don't change
All this pain in my heart had to come from you
It was all or nothing, met you all the way around like the circumference
When I need money, always call on me cause I won't plummet
Youth gettin' hard to stomach
Uh, I will never fall, that's a god damn lie cause I learned from you
Anxious when I'm out in public
Sad I couldn't see my cousin
I swear I mask all the fear, I'm huggin'
How my father is, know I learn this scholarship
Hard to focus when my sister keep wallowing, checkin' in my Wallabees
Many souls on my feet, live, die, and repeat
It's been hard to eat
My fear follow me, it was all but a dream
Um, dreams and reality
[Outro]
I just want to know, if we were to die
Will you be alone or will I be by your side, baby?
Yeah, will I be by your side, baby?
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
No more
