Brother
The Sons Of Anarchy Lyrics

I left my home still as a child
As a young child, I departed from my home

I walked a thousand sorry miles
I traveled a long distance on foot with sadness and regret

To wait for my father to gather up his tools
I awaited my father who was gathering his equipment

He said my boy you've got to run
My father instructed me to flee

Don't wait for me, don't wait for mum
I was told not to wait for him or my mother

We'll come get you when it's safe for us to move
They promised to retrieve me when they considered it safe

So I waited many years
I remained waiting for many years

Held back the pain behind my tears
I suppressed the sorrow that made me weep

For my father to come find me like he said
I awaited my father's arrival as he promised

In that time I was alone
During this period, I was by myself

So many years without my home
I experienced many years far away from home

I made brothers of a different kind instead
I formed a bond with friends as if they were family

At the time I didn't know
At that moment, I had no idea

Just how hard the wind could blow
I didn't know how tough circumstances could be

Towards disaster, and the things that I would see
Toward unfavorable situations and experiences I was bound to have

I never found my father
Unfortunately, I never found my father

I never found my mother either
Equally, I wasn't able to find my mother

But I know that in my lifetime I will be
Regardless, I am confident that throughout my life

A hero to the masses
I will be a champion for many people

To those born without chances
Especially to those who didn't receive equal opportunities from birth

There's a freedom that everyone deserves
I firmly believe that all people have the right to liberty

I know there's greed and there's corruption
I recognize the existence of greed and dishonesty

I've seen death and mass destruction
I have witnessed fatalities and calamity on a large scale

But I'm telling you and I hope that I am heard
Regardless, I want to convey my message and trust it'll be understood

I will not be commanded
I refuse to accept orders

I will not be controlled
I won't allow anyone to have power over me

I will not let my future go on, without the help of my soul
I'll ensure my soul guides my future decisions
