Brother Sister Lyrics - Elephantitis: The Funk House Remixes, Vol. 2 - Brand New Heavies

Don't let your young life get you down 

It always had a certain mystery 

Many changes come to everyone 

About the time that they turn seventeen 

Grandma said at times you'll feel a sting 

There'll be sharp turns and uphills and closed doors 

Then she said hold onto your faith 

'Cause in this world you've got to go and get yours 

So you stand up 

Be strong go out there 

Hold on to the real thing that matter 

'Cause no one's gonna hand it to you on a silver platter 

There's no need to feel you're on your own 

Just let your intuition guide you through 

Take one step toward what you believe 

Don't be afraid to make your move 

In my head those words remind me what 

Grandma said - at times you'll feel a sting 

There'll be sharp turns and uphills and closed doors 

Then she said hold on to your faith 

Don't be scared go out there 

Stand up 

Be strong go out there 

Hold on 

To the real things that matter 

'Cause no one's gonna hand' em to you 

On a silver platter 

Just stand up 

Be strong go out there 

Hold on 

To the real things that matter 

'Cause no one's gonna hand 'em to you 

On a silver platter 

Don't be scared go out there 

Just stand up my brother sister 

Hold on 

To the real things that matter 

'Cause no one's gonna hand it to you 

On a silver platter 

Stand up my brother sister 

Hold on to the real things that matter 

'Cause no one's gonna hand 'em to you 

On a silver platter
