[Verse]
You had the golden bike I had the rusted wheels
You climbed the highest trees I tripped on what I feel
Mom’s eyes lit up for you like a summer sky
I stayed a shadow in the corner asking why
[Prechorus]
I wanted your shoes
But they never fit me right
[Chorus]
Brother’s shadow long and wide
Running fast I’m stuck behind
I chased the light but it’s too bright
I can’t escape brother’s shadow tonight
[Verse 2]
Your laugh was a thunder mine barely made a sound
Your trophies lined the shelves my dreams stayed underground
You had the answers while I fumbled through
Everywhere I turned it all led back to you
[Prechorus]
I wanted your crown
But it weighed me down
[Chorus]
Brother’s shadow long and wide
Running fast I’m stuck behind
I chased the light but it’s too bright
I can’t escape brother’s shadow tonight
