about

I've kinda built my family through the years and I've made some uncharacteristically wise choices

lyrics

when people used to ask if we were brothers that
would make me feel so nice
it was you and I and a cool white lie
and so I came to be fluent in dishonesty
and learned the words they like
and hit my every cue, as if it all was true

it was like everybody had read the book before
or took a class that I never took on how to act
and what to say, and rules I learned to disobey

me with no self control, you like a general
I've watched you all these years
standing true and strong
I knew it all along

I don't think I should run in your race
I don't belong and I'll be taking it slow
but brother your my chosen family
you lift me up and let me be
