YOU ARE TO ME, WHAT I AM TO YOU

You are to me, what I am to you
I don't want to criticize your actions 
Tell me your weaknesses 
I won't use it against you
Because it's not a mixtape 
From the Dj for people to listen to 
I just want to confide in you 
So we can abide by each other's ways.

You are to me, what I am to you
You're my reflection and I'm yours 
You don't need to be perfect 
That's why everyday we mature 
From  every mistake we make 
Matured in experience not in size to be precise.

You are to me, what I am to you 
If I'm your brother, you're my brother 
If I'm your lover, you're my lover
You fill me,  and I fill you 
Let's grow older together 
Fighting our rivals, sticking to our  vals
Never to neglect each other, sticking together 
No matter the season, for the same reasons.
