A Brothers Promise

Friends we have stayed for many years,

And as another one goes by

I must say, while it's been full of jeers and cheers;

There is nothing money can buy

That can compare to the friendship you give.

A wise man once said,

No matter how you live,

Its how you make your bed.

From what you've shown me,

Your bed is made clean.

Through you eye's I can see

What being brother's truly means.

People come into our lives for a reason,

It's our responsibility to find out why.

If we don't, it's our own treason.

I'm truly grateful you're in my life.

No matter what life throws you,

I'll be there standing by your side.

You stand out above the rest, one of the few.

A friend in me you can always confide.

A brother I've never had in my time,

In that aspect I've been confined.

Whenever times become bad,

And shit makes me mad,

You're always there to help me out;

Standing by my side fighting life's ferocious bout.

Hope you know, I'm here for you too,

Opening your eyes to a whole new view

Of yourself and the others around.

Keeping your feet on the ground.

I'm going to be your friend til I'm long gone,

Until I hear you play your last song.

I'll do my best to keep life worthwhile,

Even when you're down and in denial.

So remember when you're going down that crazy bend,

I'll be your brother til the very end.
