Brother
The Citizens Lyrics

On the highway
Traveling on the main road

On the freeway
Driving on the expressway

In the airport
Inside the terminal of the airport

In the airplane
Being inside the aircraft

In the airtrain
Riding the train that connects airport terminals

In Brooklyn U.S.A.
In the borough of Brooklyn in the United States

To the Tinsel Town
Heading towards Hollywood

Where now
The current location

What the Dodgers play
Where the Los Angeles Dodgers play their games

And where they fired it
Referring to a gunshot

Where they tried it
Where an attempt was made

Where they doubled it
Where they increased something twofold

Where they tripled it
Where they increased something threefold

Where they flippin' it
Where they are turning something over

And where the car's parked
The location where the car is left

Where the girls dance naked
Where women are performing without clothing

Where they know when you're fakin' it
A place where people can recognize dishonesty

Where the rubber meets the road yea
The point where practicality comes into play

Where the hot meets the cold
The meeting point of contrasting elements

Poor meet the soul
Where impoverished individuals come across spiritual depth

Where the young meet the old
Where the youthful generation encounters the elderly

Truth be told
To honestly express the reality

I got somethin' on my mind
I have something important to share

Y'all gotta know
It's necessary for all of you to understand

I got a brother named Lee
I have a sibling named Lee

Look just like me
Having a strong resemblance to each other

He gotta lotta enemies
He has a significant number of opponents

Both sides of the Mississippi [x2]
Exists on both banks of the Mississippi River

And when they're searchin' for something
When individuals are seeking something

That you will never find
Something that cannot be discovered

When they lookin' at her and say 'so fine'
When people admire her and complement her appearance

When they keep saying it was suicide
When they repeatedly claim it was a self-inflicted death

When they never seen that look in her father's eye
When they haven't witnessed the expression in her father's eyes

Where the spirit meets the soul
The point where the core essence encounters the spiritual aspect

I say truth be told
I emphasize that honesty is essential

Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Existing on both shores of the Mississippi River

Both sides
Referencing both perspectives

Both sides of the Mississippi yea
Present on both banks of the Mississippi River
