Presumed lyrics[]
My brother
My brother, oh, my bro
Wouldn't you die for me?
I would die for you, you are my equal
Oh, my god, he murdered me
My brother, my common mother
How much did you knew
I'll kill you
Lonely as fuck
I'm not faster, faster, faster
Would never last her
My sister
Do you love her
You must not fall in love [?]
Do you know what happens, brother
[?] from the top
Together, my brother, my sister
When white man comes, we collect her
And we come and we never
We never listen
