Everyday
everyday
i see whats missing
the pages are blank
but the story's written.
everyday
i hear the lies
they say he ran
but really, he died.
everyday
i see him there
his presence around me
fills the air.
everyday
i hear his voice
in my head
when i make a choice.
everyday
i see the struggles
as tear drops fall
forming puddles.
everyday
i wonder why
those strangers came
and took his life.
everyday
i feel the pain
the loss of my brother
drives me insane.
everyday
i think about
what would have happened
if he made it out.
everyday
he pushes me
to work harder for him
and live his dream.
everyday
he talks to me
telling me what i should
and shouldn't be.
everyday
that passes by
i know my choices
make him cry.
everyday
i stop and think
just what my bro
would want for me.
everyday
it hurts inside
to know for him
i haven't tried.
so everyday
from this day on
i'll strive to be
what my brother wants.
everyday
starting now
i'll be successful
i won't let him down.
everyday
from this day on
for my older bro
i will be strong.
everyday
starting now
for YOU big bro
i'll make you proud.
