Could’ve been one of the fellas I knew But I couldn’t see it was way across town Could’ve been one of my friends Out on the street Could’ve been you Could’ve been me Just the sound of the bullet’s ring Was enough to make my heart sing By the time it hit the news You know they hid the truth Just the pain in my chest Put the soul to rest This time the whole country cried Another Brother Another Casualty Doesn’t mean a thing to society Another Brother Another Casualty Got to change the whole mentality It’s far past time we made a difference It’s been way too long For these hate crimes to still be going on Hard to believe and sad to say In this day and age racial injustice Just hasn’t changed Yeah we know ‘some things’ have gotten better Yet too many things just like they were before Yes we still ice tumultuous weather Yes we still have many rivers to cross Another Brother Another Casualty Doesn’t mean a thing to society Another Brother Another Casualty Got to change the whole mentality

about

This song was originally written in the 90’s but never recorded. After the George Floyd incident I felt compelled to record it once and for all.The lyrics have been slightly changed but the issues are still the same

Lyrics;
Could’ve been one of the fellas I knew
But I couldn’t see it was way across town
Could’ve been one of my friends
Out on the street
Could’ve been you
Could’ve been me
Just the sound of the bullet’s ring
Was enough to make my heart sing
By the time it hit the news
You know they hid the truth
Just the pain in my chest
Put the soul to rest
This time the whole country cried

Another Brother
Another Casualty
Doesn’t mean a thing to society
Another Brother
Another Casualty
Gotta change the whole mentality

It’s far past time we made a difference
It’s been way too long
For these hate crimes to still be going on
Hard to believe and sad to say
In this day and age racial injustice
Just hasn’t changed
Yeah we know ‘some things’ have gotten better
Yet too many things just like they were before
Yes we still ice tumultuous weather
Yes we still have many rivers to cross

Another Brother
Another Casualty
Doesn’t mean a thing to society
Another Brother
Another Casualty
Gotta change the whole mentality
