[Verse 1]

We were just two brothers five years apart

Back in the days when I feared the dark

In them times we did what the rest do I looked up to you

Tried hard to impress you

But I was too young to think logical

Gaining your approval was impossible

Go away that was all you were telling me then

Down the line then things between us were very intense

And I admit sometimes I'd act stupid and

It was you who introduced me to rap music

You groped my hand one time I thought you bruised it

But there was so many I times I saw you lose it

I remember mom screaming when you hit her

And in my photographic memory theres a picture

I'm on the stairs watching dad throw you out the front door

As the memories run through my head once more

[Hook x2]

Did I reach out and Hold you

Did I reach out

Did I reach out and Hold you in my arms

I'm Sorry

Did I reach out

[Verse 2]

When I was twelve and you where eighteen you went away growing up

I experienced some better days got to know myself

And how to stand on my own too

I failed to grow into a man that would show you

Sometimes I wasn't around you was good for me

Cuz you showed me things a child my age I shouldn't see

Years later you came back acting the same

I refused to speak to you That was ashamed

You tried to talk to me

But I wouldn't even look at you and

You reacted in a way I thought you wouldn't do

You took me seriously But you would never change

And thats something I really believed

Then on my birthday you wrote a rhyme to me

Still when I saw you I walked past silently

You said you understood I needed room at the end you said

Peace k low see you soon

(but you didn't... you never did)

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

Sorry I didn't answer your letter

I can't remember the last time we were laughing together

Sorry I told mom to not let you come around

You extended you hand

While I shut you out

I'm sorry I didn't see the love in your heart

Sorry I still held a grudge from the past

I'm listening to this beat on your cd player

I'm sorry I'm sorry you didn't see me later

I was running from issues

I didn't want to face

You were on the steps chillin with them kids on the estate

Pictures just bring me to tears

You believed that we should face all the things that we fear

Sorry I just wasted a wasted chance

Sorry I so ashamed to stop it

Sorry I didn't write back

Sorry you didn't get a ding

Sorry so sorry for everything
