Brotha
Alicia Keys Angie Stone & Eve Lyrics

He is my king (she is my woman)
He or she is the most important person in my life.

Yes he's my father, yes he's my son
He is both a father figure and a child figure to me.

I can talk to him 'cause he understands
He is a good listener and knows how to relate to me.

Everything I go through and everything I am
He knows and accepts me for who I am and what I experience.

He's my support system, I can't live without him
He is my source of strength and I rely on him heavily.

The best thing since sliced bread
He is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Is his kiss, his hugs, his lips, his touch
I love the way he shows affection to me.

And I just want the whole world to know
I want to express my love for him to everyone.

About my Black brotha, I love ya
I love my black brother very much.

And I'll never try to hurt ya
I will never intentionally harm him.

I want you to know that
I want him to understand my feelings towards him.

I'm here for you, forever true
I will always be there for him and be loyal to him.

'Cause you're my black brotha, strong brotha
He is my strong black brother.

And there is no one above ya
He is the best and no one can compare to him.

He's misunderstood, some say that
People don't always understand him.

He's up to no good around the neighborhood
Some people assume that he is doing bad things in the neighborhood.

Well, for your information
I want to correct their misconceptions.

A lot of my brotha's got education
Many of my brothers have received an education.

You got your wall street brotha
Some are successful businessmen.

Your blue collar brotha
Some are hard-working laborers.

Your down-for-whatever-chillin'-on-the-corner brotha
Some are laid-back and enjoy hanging out with friends.

Your talented brotha, and to everyone of ya'll behind bars
Some have special talents, while others are in prison.

You know that angie loves ya, my my
I want all my brothers to know that I love them.

You mean so much to me, you give me what I need
He provides me with what I need and is very important to me.

I'm so proud of you
I feel great pride and admiration for him.

Goin' through thick and thin, brothas you gonna win
Even in tough times, my brothers can overcome and succeed.

Whenever you're facin' doubt, brotha's gon' work it out
He has the strength and ability to face and solve problems.

I got unshakable faith in ya
I have complete trust in him and believe in his abilities.

For everyone of ya'll, you know that angie loves ya
All of my brothers should know that I love them.

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Just an expression of agreement or excitement.
