my brother's keeper - i'm through lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
now the good, good father told me
“take up your shield and sword”
but i hocked ‘em off to buy a guitar
and forgot all about the lord
now it’s been a couple beatings
beat me black and blue
but i ain’t cuttin’ slack or slidin’ back
i tell you, baby, i’m through

[chorus]
i’m through
standing on the sidelines
i’m through
saying there’s nothing to do
i’m through
watching from the skylines
when there’s work to do in the city streets
i tell you, baby, i’m through

[instrumental]

[verse 2]
now i never been much a night owl
or much on gettin’ around
but if you see me walkin’ around the buildin’
don’t be surprised if the walls come down

[chorus]
i’m through
standing on the sidelines
i’m through
saying there’s nothing to do
i’m through
watching from the skylines
when there’s work to do in the city streets
i tell you, baby, i’m through

[instrumental]

[verse 3]
now the good, good father told me
“write me a song again”
but i went back to sleep instead ‘cause i couldn’t find my pen
but i woke up from a slumber, went and told my bes
“i’ll work when i am livin’ and sleep when i am dead!”

[chorus]
i’m through
standing on the sidelines
i’m through
saying there’s nothing to do
i’m through
watching from the skylines
when there’s work to do in the city streets
i tell you, baby, i tell you, baby, i tell you, baby, i’m through (woo!)
