Cousins

You’re not just my cousin you’re my favorite kin, we’ve been tight since light-skinned brothers were in... since fat bastard only had one chin. Knocking on your window...let me in cuz quick. Tight like twin’s let the games begin...from Sneaking biscuits out of the kitchen; to sneaking fit chicks in…your room in your flat it's where we learned to sin...we were two young lads both trying to become men. Those early years were priceless when you left it left me lifeless. Couldn’t recognize my face if an artist drew me twice…let's figure out a life with no power, you know the kind that leaves you broken with no will to even shower. I’m not a bad man but I’d do anything for you. So I stayed un-cliqued bruv no crew. I kept my head down and my hood up whenever I was bruised. So afraid I even hid that shit from you.

I would never let you break from pressure. You're my blood, you know I'm down for whatever.
I'm everything you think I am... I do it all just for the fam. For the boy trapped in the man...I do what I can to set him free.

Saturday mornings on the dog and bone we'd talk about fit girls until your dad got home. Your dad gave you hugs...my dad sold my dog. Your dad said he loved you and my dad not so much. You always gave the very best that you could give. For the most part yeah that part we were really good kids. We never even beefed, not even tension...a couple of questions about some birds you chose that I will never ever mention. My point is, you were always by my side, through the formative best parts of my life. It's amazing what a little love can do and the lack of it can wreck a kid that's why there's me and you. You asked...what can you do to get it back? I answered you said yo cuz do that. You always said if you believe you can achieve but I could not conceive that you would ever leave.
