Guitar Song

Play it, brother,
from your heart,
on strings that won’t break
even when your
life breaks

Sing it, brother
for everyone to hear
because they can’t do
the things you do
so well

You’ll go far, brother;
I can feel it in my bones
and in my soul
that you can make
the world better

Keep going, brother,
farther than I
can ever go,
but never lose
that sense of who
you are.
