To the brother I never knew
To the plus 1 I never saw
To the smart man you've become
We're happy we have you

You'll never know
The struggles we faced and
The path we took
I won't tell you though;
So you can live in a world
Without hatred and lies

To the brother I almost didn't know
To you calling my dad your dad
The open mind you possess
Tells me I was right when I decided to open a part of me – brand new– and give it to you.

The past should be thrown
Mistakes never made known
Because you– you tell me it's safe
To call you my brother, my friend.
