In Tradition (Legacy)

by cary-fosback

I've never had a brother No blood of my blood, no seed of my mother But if bonds forged in steel And tempered with heat Can sing the same song When hammered upon This chain link camaraderie Would shriek: I've never had a brother, Or name of my name But my heart, always open, might quake the same A man such as you, Who plays with fire, but has never once burned Who stands up a new man while everyone turns Your character speaks the music That is the background to your steps You don't need lyrics To speak with your hands You are free will You aren't a dumbass You are who you're meant to be Here . Now. You're a son of a mother My BFL brother Yippee-Kye-yay (Merry Christmas) motherfucker
