Down for Life - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

When I see my brother, what I see is like no other

What we had forever lost

Can't deny our friendship, feeling like it's time to end this

Bad relation ripped apart

When we were young and disarranged, we didn't know it any other way

Now were grown, he's still the same, people see him suffering

I am not about to run away

Turn my back to him in his darkest hour

Give him will to fight, antagonize his thoughts

See him though his toughest times, purify his weakened heart

All the friends we feel the same

The way it was back in the day

The more we change, he stays the same

Will we ever see our friend again?

I feel that I can't protect my friend from himself

All I've got, are these lessons learned in life

The lessons I've been taught, they still remain inside my thoughts

Even as we speak, as troubled as it seems

He'll always be a friend of mine, the way it was and always will be

When we were young and disarranged

We didn't know it any other way

Now were grown he's still the same

People see him suffering

I feel that I cannot help my friend help himself

You can't hear what I say, never going away

Still friends down for life, can you still fight?

Fight, fight, fight

All I've got, are these lessons learned in life

The lessons I've been taught, they still remain inside my thoughts

Even as we speak, as troubled as it seems

He'll always be a friend of mine, the way it was and always will be

Now in the end it plain to see

What kind of friend he has been for me

All along he could never see

Who he was and always will be
