Brothers
What happens when the people closest to you become the ones tearing each other apart? Brothers is about pride, power, and the cost of forgetting that grace is supposed to hold us together.
Written and performed by The Embassy Project. From the album Sealed (2016).
Lyrics
Heavy the head that wears the crown
Restless the rebel trying to bring him down
The king he bears weight in his soul
Pretender just waits to gain control
And it's a tragedy when brothers are like enemies
The body is no longer whole
And it's so sad to see
We're living like the Pharisees
When grace no longer plays a role
In your heart, in your mind, in your soul
Change always brings its own complaints
We're not immune among the saints
Growth rides in on a horse called pain
You know it's always been the same
And it's a tragedy when brothers are like enemies
The body is no longer whole
And it's so sad to see
We're living like the Pharisees
When grace no longer plays a role
In your heart, in your mind, in your soul
And it's a tragedy when brothers are like enemies
The body is no longer whole
And it's so sad to see
We're living like the Pharisees
When grace no longer plays a role
In your heart, in your mind, in your soul
