[Verse 1] I got four names in my chest Four scars on my sleeve When the room go cold They the first ones I need One brings the fire One keeps it real One cracks a joke When the hurt too deep to feel One prays for the rest With his head bowed low And when my hands shake He say, "Sis, let it go" (let it go) We been through the rain And the same old dirt If I call them friends That word don't work [Pre-Chorus] They don't just stand near They stand through When my world gets mean They pull me through No chain, no blood Still they mine Four strong hearts In a straight hard line [Chorus] My four brothers strong They hold me up My four brothers strong When the night get rough My four brothers strong I don't stand alone My four brothers strong They made me home (my four brothers) [Verse 2] Late-night porch steps Plastic cups on ice One broke his own bread Just to keep me right One took my fear And threw it back Said, "Look at you now" When I was blacked out sad One kept my name When my voice was gone One said, "You still here So you still belong" I seen love get fake I seen trust get thin But these four stay solid Like a steel-gone hymn [Pre-Chorus] They don't ask twice They just move When my faith runs dry They refill the room No chain, no blood Still they mine Four strong hearts In a straight hard line [Chorus] My four brothers strong They hold me up My four brothers strong When the night get rough My four brothers strong I don't stand alone My four brothers strong They made me home (my four brothers) [Bridge] If I ever fold They won't let me stay there If I ever fall They drag me back from nowhere Not by name But by soul Four good men And they know me whole [Chorus] My four brothers strong They hold me up My four brothers strong When the night get rough My four brothers strong I don't stand alone My four brothers strong They made me home (my four brothers)
