Intro
Verse 1
Brother;
There's so much that I could never say to your face.
But by now,
You should know the world and all its ways; so find your place.
Verse 2
How do I find words that do not condescend,
When she bore you be-fore me?
'Cos she doesn't need a child; she needs a friend.
A son, not a sob sto-ry. (Ooh, ooh, hoo).
Chorus 1
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
And your priority; it must be her.
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
'Cos we'll never be the way we were. (Ooh, ooh, hoo).
Verse 3
She can't always be there,
Just to hold you down; our mother.
When you are at an age now,
Where life turns a-round, my brother.
Verse 4
Realise;
That you don't have to answer to no man,
Re-sponsibility comes down to you.
But how can I expect you to understand,
When you live life like you're so run through?
Chorus 2
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
And your priority; it must be her.
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
'Cos we'll never be the way we were.
Chorus 3
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
And your priority; it must be her.
Now you must look out for her, the way she did for you.
'Cos we'll never be the way we were.
Coda
The way we were, we'll never be.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh).
And your pri-ority it must be her.
(Ooh, ooh, hoo).
