Brother (YKTDY)
Is a very nostalgic song for me. Most songs touch on the subject of love, the only difference here is that I wanted to write a song about how much I love my mates. I wanted to share some of the story’s and memories we lived through in our younger years. Growing up in Moston (Manchester). The good times. The bad times. It’s celebrating he family we choose, in our case our brothers. Life is never plain sailing but I like to think that is about who you are with not where you are. In this industry iv met a lot of privileged people but I honestly wouldn’t change our upbringing for the world. I’m proud of where I’m from & I love my mates so I wrote a song about it. Enjoy.

LYRICS:

no way
i came here to forget those things
i can't stay
but let me be un-cynical
for one more second
one more lightyear
one imploding sun
wherever this may go
it has begun

far away
far away from earthly troubles
life again
pirouettes among the corals
does every heart
does every alien
get the urge run?
wherever this may go
it has begun

a face you remember
and all those you forget
and then there’s everyone
you’ve never even met
but the question of scale
is easily dropped
as the face across the table
grows larger

no way
got no room
for any major changes
but take this thought wherever you want
and rearrange the furniture
my kidneys and my lungs
wherever this may go
it has begun

no way
and then i find a way of saying
maybe
and then i find a way of saying
yes please
and then i find a way of saying
change me
change me
change me

No Way
