My Brothers Keeper

My brothers keeper keep looking forward
,let me return the favor i know your lost and bored
,to the light in your mind the time of your life
,dead stillness at night living dying doesn't make it right
,rolling over your grave is no way to pray
,its no way to say im blind and afraid
,to the heavens begging to skyline your heading,
but if you could just settle down if you could just start to listen
,there are many who are watching silently stalking
,the vulture is available the coroner is mocking,
lets restart the clock regenerate the difference
,this chemical is bleeding resisting this instance
,and tomorrow don't thank me don't even try to think it,
just a sunrise and breathing instead of you sinking
