You're more than just a brother to me.
You are the one I look up to, you see.
I care about you more than you could know,
But sometimes I get upset when I see you go.
You found someone you loved, and she loves you back.
It was your love; it's as simple as that.
You were with her every chance you could.
I missed hanging out with you, but you never understood.
You hung out with the wrong crowd and got hooked on drugs.
You started to forget about the things that you loved.
Family and cars were what you loved,
But alcohol and drugs were what you chose.
You changed your life around,
Grew up and moved away,
But you are my brother, my idol,
And that will never change.
Looking Up To A Brother
My Brother
