Dave Hollister Baby Brother Lyrics

Sticky Fingaz f/ Dave Hollister

[Sticky talking]
Let me call this n____
Come on man; pick up the d___ phone

[Brother]
Hello?

[Sticky]
I got your pictures, d___ we look just alike
A younger version of me, half my age n height
I played "beat you up", made you tough, thought you to fight
Put you on, showed you things, bought you your first bike
Now you in the streets making the same mistakes I did
That got me nowhere, so I'm trapped upstate in this bid
Caged like an animal ain't no way to live
Got a baby on the way, who gone father my kid?
The way you going now I can clearly see
You either gun' end up dead or in jail with me
Remember when we was younger and you promised me
You'd be the first in our fam with al college degree
I know you see the cars, the girls, the clothes, the jewels
And think it's all about the money, heard you dropped out of school
I ain't tryin' preach but if I don't, who gonna
Couldn't live with myself if you died on the corner
You're my baby brother

[Chorus: Dave Hollister]
You are my baby brother
And you know I love you n____
I'm just trying to keep you out there
You don't want to end up in here

[Brother]
I hear what you saying big brother, but listen to me
I ain't trying to be the n____ working Mickey D
When I can hustle on the block and come home with a G
Yeah you right I want jewels and push a luxury V
But what's wrong with that, I wanna live comfortably
Just like the next man drivin' down the hood in my Lex Land
I ain't got nobody takin' care of me
And as far as a school, well it just ain't for me

[Sticky & Brother]
So what you wanna do huh
What you gone sell drugs all your life
(I might)
You see you ain't even right
Maybe when you sober up ya a__ will see the light
(Hold up, this is my life, I live it anyway that I like)
Look I'm just trying to help
But all you wanna do is get blunted
(Yo, I need money, my wifey got a seed in her stomach)
If you can't see the cycle then you must be blind
And your child gettin' a father that was just like mine
You're my baby brother

Chorus

[Sticky & Brother]
So is you like that, I mean what's the deal?
What you too worry about tryin' to keep it real?
(Man whatever, that's how you feel then that's how you feel)
Yo what's this I hear, you had a gun concealed
(Yeah, I keep my nine (See this what I'm-)
(Hold up, let me speak my mind
Look at you, you can't talk you doin' mad time)
Yeah look at me, is this is how you wanna be
Locked up, the cops tell you where you can pee?
(Yo, I gotta go man)
Ooh you ain't even want to hear me out?
(Yeah, but you talkin' mad s___ I don't even care about)
Yo, All I sayin' is that you got to be more responsible
(Aight man, whatever I'm a talk to you)

[Sticky]
Yo, yo.... d___
He gone end up just like me

Chorus
