Lyrics
When we heard the news
'Bout baby brother
Our lives flashed
Before our eyes
With a heart so free
And so so wild
He was far too young to die
Now he's lying in the shadows
Hooked up to that machine
He's holding on to slender threads
But we all still got to believe
Stay alive, little brother
Stay alive, my friend
'Cause we need you here
Don't let heaven interfere
It's not your time to go
Little brother
It's Friday night
In the Oakland lights
People getting ready
To put up a fight
It's gonna take
Some changes now
But we can do it yes
We know how
'Cause the sun will rise tomorrow
We'll step into a new day
You'll find me right here
The sky's all clear, brother
Here me when I say
Stay alive, little brother
Stay alive, my friend
'Cause we need you here
Don't let heaven interfere
It's not your time to go
Little brother
Stay alive, little brother
Stay alive, my friend
