Lyrical Lessons From a Sibling

I had to postpone ‘til it was full grown but I’m in the zone now so watch it:

Hey Bro where you at I've got something to say
You shouted my way, shared your life (an array) and
To my own dismay I iced you out, Faberge
And I apologize
So here's what you deserve
A little love mixed with some swagger and swerve...

I don’t really know when you stole the show
Someday hiking Machu Picchu and exploring lands below
With a glimpse of adventure all signs turned to go
Then a little bro bro traded a little pro quo
And all of a sudden you were so hard core
Keeping up with the sis as we cleared the dance floor
Whether Garth or Doc Dre...Em too, we're Not Afraid
Got game to play, here to stay, crowd gets jealous Kid Cudi Make 'Em Say
OH, oh oh oh...
Head to toe: meticulous--your flow: ridiculous
Never been prouder, we connect like a router, the signal between us
Couldn't be any louder
No one’s been through, how me and you, do what we do, in our fam crew
We Stars--All...Little League and basketball
Diggin’ Charles Barkley-seven years old, from Suns to Rockets—hot to cold
Fighting since the days I wore my Barbie shirt
No matter what happened you always got hurt
I still don’t get it, don’t think I ever will
But mom he started it, I’m still the one you want to kill
Mom I swear, Jenny’s lying...next thing you know, Andy’s crying
Fighting over channels and over closed doors
Fighting over mom and dad wrestling on the floor
The time you turned and socked me when I was chasing you
We froze so quick it shocked us, didn’t know what to do
“Mom come quick I got her!” and then it hit the fan
I was seeing bright red that wasn’t in the plan

Competitors for life and still we're teammates too
Boggle, Sorry, Mille Borne, Uno, and Taboo
Ninja turtles, Splinter, the Little Mermaid dish
Power rangers, Duck Tales, Missy and the fish
Boxes of new cereal, hot cocoa and toast
Campfires, Santa Cruz, marshmallows we’d roast
The day I thought I taught you to read your first word
But you just had it memorized, please that's absurd
Sword fights, acrobats, forts in the living room
Never cleaning up it’s mom’s job we’d assume
My mind keeps flashing blue carpet bedroom
Nibbles, Rascal, Luigi-- pets in every room
Wish I spent my whole life standing up for you
It’s my only one regret, kid you know it’s true
By the time I realized that it seemed we switched roles
But it’s never too late, however this unfolds
So bubs through it all, you’re my favorite star
You always feel close evens though it’s too far
All that you are, all that you'll become
Can't you see the competition is useless for some
Not even fair they're compared to you in my my heart
They’ll never quite live up, but hey they can start...

Bro bro!!
