[Verse 1]
I hope you're somewhere listening to this
I wish I knew why you did what you did
Cause I still haven't really come to terms with the truth
There must have been something you were determined to do
The lessons you taught me, I can't forget
But there's so many unanswered questions
Now everything seems meaningless
You lived fast and died young
But my brother you were a genius
How could you ever believe that you'll survive
I don't care what they say, that shit is suicide
I won't lie, there was much distance between you and I
I should've told you not to do it, don't be stupid
You've got looks, got brains and your future's bright
Now you're gone I feel like I'm gon' lose my mind
I never thought you'd get yourself organised
I wish we saw the signs, the shock left us all traumatised
These are awful times, and I need more than rhymes
Cause this was more than a tragedy
You can't just cheat the forces of gravity
You left me here to hold a brave face supporting the family
[Verse 2]
In a way you were dying to live
It's fucked up man, I'm crying while I'm writing this shit
Water from my eyes is stopping me from lighting my spliff
Why didn't you realise that your life is a gift
Mum and Dad don't understand why they've outlived their son
Every single CD, Mix Tape and Album to come
Is dedicated to no other than my blood brother
But I hate you, for the way you made my Mum suffer
Words can't explain, how a certain part of my heart hurts with the harshest pain
Last time we spoke, we said we weren't brothers and we aren't the same
I told myself you were too far past insane
How could we not take your death badly
I just asked mum and she said your name meant happy
I hope you're somewhere listening to this
I wish I knew why you did what you did
Cause I still haven't really come to terms with the truth
There must have been something you were determined to do
The lessons you taught me, I can't forget
But there's so many unanswered questions
Now everything seems meaningless

But my brother you were a genius
How could you ever believe that you'll survive
I don't care what they say, that shit is suicide
