"I'm Not My Brother's Keeper" by Flaming Ember

Im not my brothers keeper, though he be strong or weaker
Before you judge me, why not try to love me?
Ill try to help you when hes wrongin us
Dont point your finger, sayin its all of us

If a man yells hate, will my voice be heard?
Does he speak for me when he chooses one bad word?
When wrong is done under one persons name
Should all the people have to share the blame?

Im not my brothers keeper, though he be strong or weaker
Before you judge me, why not try to love me?
If I do wrong, then someone make me pay
But if Im right, dont try to block my way

Dont judge the story without opening up the book
The good you find inside it many times is overlooked
Being militant dont mean peace aint in your heart
Though were most impatient for freedom to start

Im not my brothers keeper, though he be strong or weaker
Before you judge me, why not try to love me?
Dont cut into me with your knives of doubt
Before you judge me, why not hear me out?
Whoa, brothers!!
