For a Brother

[Verse 1] Can't rise from the bottom Time flies when ya got it Your time has receded, wasted Coulda, shoulda been and didn't [Chorus] I've given up my hand for a brother I've given up a hand for free I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned But you set yourself free [Verse 2] Nosedive, crash to the bottom Angel, your wing was always broken Fought for rights of the prophets Not for the spirit of your daughters, didn't [Chorus] I've given up my hand for a brother I've given up a hand for free I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned But you set yourself free [Bridge] You walk slowly Seems like time stopped Seems like I'm slow dancin' But I'm flyin' Where do I go? The home I know is closed I'm free Free, yeah I'm free Free, yeah Free Free, yeah [Instrumental Break] Yeah [Chorus] I've given up my hand for a brother I've given up a hand for free I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned But you set yourself free I've bitten off my hand for the stuff, and Livin' off the shit you steal You perished for religious and forgotten Daughters that you couldn't see [Outro] Given up my hand (You set yourself free) Given up a hand for free Given up my hand (You set yourself free) But you set yourself free
