He was my brother
Five years older than I
He was my brother
Twenty-three years old the day he died
Freedom writer1
They cursed my brother to his face
Go home outsider
This town's2 gonna be your buryin' place
He was singin' on his knees
An angry mob trailed along
They shot my brother dead
Because he hated what was wrong
He was my brother
Tears can't bring him back to me
He was my brother
And he died so his brothers could be free
He died so his brothers could be free
o benim kardeşimdi
benden beş yaş büyük
o benim kardeşimdi
öldüğü gün 25 yaşındaydı
özgürlük savaşçısı
kardeşimin yüzüne küfrettiler
evine git yabancı
bu kasaba senin mezarın olacak
dizleri üzerinde şarkı söylüyordu
kızgın bir çete onu takip etti
kardeşimi silahla vurup öldürdüler
çünkü o yanlış olandan nefret ederdi
o benim kardeşimdi
gözyaşları onu bana geri getiremez
o benim kardeşimdi
ve kardeşleri özgür olabilsin diye öldü
kardeşleri özgür olabilsin diye öldü
