Prince - 2gether Lyrics

Yeah, 2gether

Your boy got popped in a drive-by yesterday
He'll be lucky if he makes it through the night is what the doctors say
You can take revenge or you can be the one to break the chain
You look up in the sky for an answer and it starts to rain

What are we if we're not 2gether?
How do we make a life that's better?
(Yeah)
'Cuz when we be killin' one another
(Take each other out)

How do we
(Huh, how)
Call each other brother?
(Mmm, check it)
You tell me

What's the chance of a brother gettin' off the block?
What's the chance, not a damn
If all he wanna do is sell chicken wings and the rock
(Chicken wing and the rock)

You can blame the system
You can be the one to even the score, huh
Yeah, huh, you look up in the sky for an answer
And it starts to pour, drop it, huh

What are we if we're not 2gether?
How do we make a life that's better?
(Yeah)
'Cuz when we be killin' one another
(Take each other out)

How do we
(Huh, how)
Call each other brother?
You tell me
(Tell 'em)

Why is slangin' them thangs, coppin' a stroll, flashin' a sign
Key topics on a young black mind?
'Cuz it's the picture that we give 'em and they illustrate
Black on black genocide has started to escalate

Every brother ain't a brother 'cuz o' color, this is true
But I can still say to my brother, "Much love boo"
Please Lord, give me the strength and make it quick
'Cuz my people won't take another nightstick, huh

What are we if we're not 2gether?
How do we make a life that's better?
(And how do we, yeah)
'Cuz when we be killin' one another
(Take each other out)

How do we call each other brother?
(I don't know)
You tell me

Yo, it's simple
From the old to the young
To uplift we must give the gift
Gift of knowledge that is teach our young

That all in life ain't fun
And to make a life that's better
My people must stick 2gether
The choice is yours

What are we if we're not 2gether?
How do we make a life that's better?
(2gether)
'Cuz when we be killin' one another
How do we call each other brother?
You tell me

2gether, 2gether
