Who am I?

July 9, 2022

Having a great brother makes society turn you against him and envy his success. 

Brother, oh brother, who are you?

I want to know why I must be you.

Why compare when we are two.

Why hate, as others want us to.

I waited, I waited for my turn, 

Turns out it was never my turn. 

What is my name when you are there?

What is my purpose when you are there?

Brother, oh brother, who are you?

People tell me what you do, 

Is it true what they say? Or

Is it a lie that I must believe?

I love you, I love you,

But why must you be so good?

I love you, I love you,

But why must you be the best?

Brother, oh brother, who am I?

Am I you or am I me?

I know you feel bad and sad, 

So do I, So do I.

I want to be me, I will be me,

People won’t have the last say.

I will change, I will have an answer to

Who am I?

I went to find myself,

Away from you and your shadow.

Finding new people uninfluenced by you,

Scarier than I thought but what else could I do?

Brother, oh brother, who am I?

I found myself, I found respect,

Thanks oh Thanks for being there by my side

Brother oh Brother, I found myself.

Dedicated to the present, and a gift to my past.
