he'd play me a measure or two
Listen to this song, he'd say,
here is the way I play
My brother said he'd be a rock star,
his music would be famous one day
Hey kid, I'd tell him, you're young
but never get old, it's not fun
Don't worry about that, brother, he'd tell
you don't get the music's way
Music erases all wrongs,
nothing transcends like song
How I wish I could go back to that time
to say I get his reason and rhyme
I know, my brother, you're gone
but your beats, they'll always live on
