My Brothers Keeper Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am][D][E][D][E][Am][D][E]
[Em]I ha[D]ve t[E]o go back
[F][E]
[F]
[E][G][F][Am][G][F]
[Am][G][F][Am][G][F]
[E]These thoughts and voices
in my head are haunting me
At night and torturing my soul
Lord, I'm alone out here,
what use can I find
In this outer [F]world if I am
[E]not my brother's keeper?
I have to go back
It's beyond my prophetic
knowledge to understand
The reasons those dead messiahs failed again
and again and again
Throughout the dark history of mankind,
and yet
[F]I hav[E]e to go back
To save these [Dm]shades,
souls [F]with faded [Am]hearts
Brothers of my [Dm]pain,
they grew (up) without [F]any [Am]love[C][G][F]
[Am]Pain is the lack of love so their souls
They will [G]not save[F]
[G]In [Am]jail they choose to live [E]they will [Am]die to save
[G]their cage[F][Am][G][F]
[E][Dm]
They are trapped in[E]side
How can we communicate,
how can I reach your hearts
If we [Am]are poisoned [E]and
brainwashed, blocked by walls,
All our filters are de[Dm]cayed and our
compassion [E]is just switched off
How will you hear my word[F]s and pleas,
[E]how will you trust me when I tell you
Come with me to the Promised
Land, I'll set you free
I exist not to be loved and admired,
but to love and act
It is not the duty of those
around me [Dm]to love [E]me
Rather, it is my duty to [F]be concerned about [E]the world,
