Bloodlines and wires

Lyrics

Verse 1 Same road, same storm, but you took the lead, You were built to protect what was fragile in me. You never judged my flaws or let me break inside, You showed up every time—even when you couldn’t that night. I never had to say it, I always knew you were strong, You never tried to fix me—just helped me when I was wrong. Chorus Two of us carry the name we were given at birth, One carries his own, still equal in worth. We didn’t learn family from where names began, We learned it by standing, just brother to man. What held us together was forged in the fire,Three hearts, one bond—stronger than bloodlines and wires. Verse 2 Little brother, I love you—no hiding behind my youth, No alibis, no excuses, just the weight of the truth. I was fighting demons I didn’t know had my name, I was Lost, while you learned to walk without blame. You became a better man without leaning on me, And that humbles my heart more than pride ever could be. I can’t rewrite the years I wasn’t who I should’ve been, But I’m here now, trying to be the brother you deserved back then. Chorus Two of us carry the name we were given at birth, One carries his own, still equal in worth. We didn’t learn family from where names began, We learned it by standing, just brother to man. What held us together was forged in the fire,Three hearts, one bond—stronger than bloodlines and wires. Bridge I’m 39 years old now, and I can’t rewind time, I’ve tried carrying yesterday—it almost cost me my mind. I don’t erase the past, but I won’t live inside it, I keep what it taught me, let the rest lie quiet. Today I stand grateful for the brothers I have, The two best men God could’ve placed in my path. I’ll show up right now, not someday, not when— I choose today to be there for you both, again and again. There’s a line between healing and drowning in pain, I’m learning to walk it and still love what remains. Final Chorus Two of us carry the name we were given at birth, One carries his own, still equal in worth. We didn’t learn family from where names began, We learned it by standing, just brother to man. What held us together was forged in the fire,Three hearts, one bond—stronger than bloodlines and wires
