Brother
Choices
Paint a picture
Of your life
My little sister
Choices will decide
How you will live
How you will die
There's got to be
Some understanding
Between the heart
And mind
There's got to be
Some understanding
Have soul
Take pride
Truth
We must recognize
Have soul
Soul, take pride
Hope is all
I have for tomorrow
Anger
And frustration
Find a place
Way down
Deep inside
But violence
Dissolves any hope
For true redemption
There's got to be
Some understanding
Don't you think
It' time
There's got to be
Some understanding
You've got
To build it up
You're self-esteem
You've got to break
Them down
These walls
That surround you
You've got
To rise above
You know
You've got to baby
You've got to believe
