Lyrics:
Dear Brother,
When you gonna call back your mother?
Thinks you’re sleeping in the gutter
We both know you can do better
And when you gonna write your older brother
A letter .. “Hey man, I miss you, getting my shit together.”
And for the record I wrote this note as a reminder
Hermano mío there’s a future we can believe in
Gonna take more than songs of justice and freedom, yeah
There’s a future, you can believe in
Gonna take more than songs of justice and freedom
Freedom, yeah
And if you’re thinking about leaving
Hold my hand over stand this too can be your kingdom
Blessed and when the rain comes
Put your hands in the dirt baba this is where you came from
This is where you came from. This is where you came from. This is where you came from.
System’s broken no fucks given - wealthy people living off the backs of the broken
Dreams of America. Dreams of America
Need a pipe carrier, let me smudge you off so the vision can get clearer
Your mother’s crying boy, can you hear her?
You gotta put down the weight.
You gotta get out of your way.
You gotta put down the weight.
You gotta get out of your way.
Dear lover,
You can find me on the front lines covered
In the blood and tears of another brother, sister, mother
Revolutions being broadcast on Facebook and Twitter
There’s a noise. I can hear it when the megaphone roars.
Wipe the tears from this tear gas. Choice.
You have a choice.
Stand in front of your fear, baby, time to find your voice.
It's a story, a love story - we can believe in
Death, birth, your life’s worth, its trending.
Story, a love story
How vain are we to expect a happy ending?
I got my hands up. Follow directions, still they shoot us.
I'm fucking sick and tired of no justice. No peace.
Promise me I’ll never pick your body off the streets
We’re all taking heat here - oh, the trust is broken, I don’t get these police! Disenfranchised, step into a new life.
Baby, if you listen to the wind there's a war cry: “Peace in America! Peace in America!"
Be decent America. Let me smudge you off so the vision can get clearer. Your mother’s crying, can you hear her?
What I see in you. A young tree bearing fruit.
Place to start. Don’t hide behind your heart.
You gotta put down the weight.
You gotta get out of your way.
(Xiuhtezcatl)
Ye tiahu
Ye tiahu
Tiahui Yaotecame tlalpixque, (Tiahui)
Ximohuala nikan cenyiliztli
Juntar los pueblos
Empieza con la familia
Hermano luchamos por lo k dijo la abuelita (es tiempo)
I can see it in grandma’s eyes
My ancestors wildest dreams, we survived genocide
This goes out to all the young souls that never made it
Promise me I’ll never pick your body off the pavement (never)
Rematriate the land that they’ve taken
The water they’ve poisoned
My people been praying
For peace
Hands up don’t mean they won’t shoot
Uniting at the borders
A generation facing the truth
Se acabo el silencio
Bullets fly by raining in the night time yuh
Round the world tribes gather as the tides rise
Put down the weight my love this is our time
What I see in you. A young tree bearing fruit.
Place to start. Don’t hide behind your heart.
You gotta put down the weight.
You gotta get out of your way.

This song is amazing. I loved it with guitar and horn, but this version is incredible. Nahko, I discovered your music in my darkest time and your lyrics taught me to be happy again. If you ever wonder if you're making a difference, believe me, you are. I can't wait to take my family to see you in concert again.
I too discovered Nahko in some of the darkest days of my life.
"Now I’m not being dramatic, enemies don’t sleep
In fact some aren’t human and that’s hard to believe
Cause I’m such a visual person, my third eye don’t lie
He’s a wise guy inside, even fooled himself twice
Thinking maybe I’m not ready to be leading the way
I mean, fuck, I’m only human, bound to make some mistakes
An earthquake took place within my lifetime of fear
I hear this too shall pass, the beginning is near"
Just one segment of so many that eased the strain.
🙏💙☝️✌
How did I just find this?! Nahko and Medicine for the People. I've followed you for ages, back at harmony some of my most life changing and soul healing moments were to your live music. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE never QUIT! You are a favorite of our childrens and we will always be excited to hear a new song from you! NOT CANCELED!!!
✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 ❤️💯🎯 A breath of fresh air!!
Literally my favorite song. That’s pretty heavy man. My favorite arrangement of notes, lyrics, and ideas.
I heard it at like 2 am last night and I have been listening to it and crying ever since. Lol. I'm really not that type but this song broke through my walls
Robin Zsóder it will. 100%
Try 'love letters to god's, the version/video from Standing Rock!
Same with 'garden' & 'lifeguard' both on 'dear brother' album..
...this one n above mentioned songs are my go to's when it feels like life is crushing my heart n soul..
Peace n blessings to all ✌️
Much love for your music. Its been a needed tug on the inner spirit to become more brave when the child within wants to remain hidden. Intertwined souls and forces that help one another break those chains that fear put on us believing we had no choices
Amen 🙏🏻 here after the Chauvin verdict was read. Thank God for justice in this case 🧡
Great song bro keep it up bro 💯 🤙🤙🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🎤🎤🎵🎵🎶🙏🙏
Thank you for making the world a more beautiful place. 🥰
No matter what I always come back to your music when my mind becomes hectic.
Absolute truth and beauty put into music, Nahko you are a hero to many. We loved you in Brisbane, Qld Man can't wait for you to come back you are my hero and to so many others. If you and Xavier Rudd had another gig in Brissie, myself and all my mates would be there in a heartbeat, that’s the dream team but just yourself is an absolute dream as well!!!!
There's a future I can believe in-- dreams of this world, putting down its weight, getting out of its way.
Peace in America!
Why do I cry every time I listen to this song?
I didnt think I could love it more. But proving me wrong!!!!! Xiuhtezcatl is PERFECTION!!!
Their both send a blessing of a message and both legends 🤙🏼👌🏼
Omgosh this song is all about my 2 baby brothers!!!!! So real true so much of what my mom and family are going through right now......we all take in what a song means to us all differently....thank you Nahko! Im so elated that I found you a month ago....wish it was sooner but hey its happening now!✌✌✌

Asi mismo hermanos 💚🍃✊🏽 United may we stand
“This is where ya came from..” Gets me every time! 🌍🌲🌾❤️🙏but then new rap had me! Thanks for this! 📿🧘♀️🌞🌈❤️🙏💪🏽 Spread the Medicine!
I can't express how happy I am to see Nahko and Xiuhtezcatl working together. I went to the Bioneers (organic and bio- engineering) Conference in 2015 and heard Xiuhtecatl speak and sing there. The work he has been doing to combat climate change is incredibly awe-inspiring. Best of all, he is a kid!! Go Nahko!! Thank you my Brothers, for taking the reins on this most important fight, the most important battle of humanity's history.
Very fitting 4 the way Worlds run atm, 👍🍺🍻👏👏👏
Xiuhtezcatl’s part though 🔥
I tear up every time. What a deep and beautiful soul you have.
What a perfect song. ❤️
I can't believe it this is so good and if your happy just whach this

I'm so here for this.
Where have you been all my life.
Powerful Stuff man.
Your music is Heart Changing.
Blessings to you .!!!!.
An anthem, a rebel yell, a rallying call.
God bless America, and God bless all warriors, guardians of this sacred land.
Xiuhtezcatl's verse is incredibly dope & the story of how he was so deeply shaped by your music is heart-filling 💜
Prayers up thank you bear and bro X💕✊🏼🎶🙏🏼
Listening to this helped me to put out my own vibrations of love, compassion, solidarity....absolutely beautiful messages. Thank you so much.
Love & Light - Lyna
So much power and sentimental. A master piece a great one! Good job!🦇🐈⬛🦇👻🥀🥰🦇🖤🖤🖤😊
A dear friend shared this with me, bellissimo!!!
It's absurdly hard to pick "favorite" songs by you guys but this is up there in my top five for sure. I loved the live version at Red Rocks 2019 too. My wife and I tried to boil our favorites down to three songs each and we couldn't do it. We kept thinking of other songs that should be in the top three and it ended up being a top ten list.
Love you. I'm happy for your journey.
Love your voice!
that's the stuff right there
it's a beautiful song.
FUCK YEAH, NAHKO FOR LIFE YOU BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS
Fantastic production, You've come such a long way well done and thank you
Montana here I come!
Dear brother
When you gonna call back your mother
Think you're sleeping in the gutter
We both know you can do better
And when you gonna write your older brother, a letter
Hey man, I miss you, getting my shit together
And for the record, I wrote this note as a reminder
Hermano mio, there's a future you can believe in
Gonna take more than songs of justice and freedom
Yeah (oh yeah)
Oh, there's a future you can believe in
Gonna take more than songs of justice and freedom
Freedom, yeah
If you're thinking about leaving
Hold my hand, overstand, as two can be a kingdom
Blessed, and when the rain comes
Put your hand in the dirt, Baba, this is where you came from
This is where you came from
This is where you came from
This is where you came from
System's broken, no fucks given
Wealthy people living off the backs of the broken
Dreams of America
Dreams of America
Need a pipe carrier
And let me sponge you off so the vision can get clearer
Your mother's crying, boy, can you hear her?
You gotta put down the weight
You gotta get out of your way
You gotta put down the weight
You gotta get out of your way
Dear lover
You can find me on the front lines covered
In the blood and tears of another
Brother, sister, mother
Revolution for your broadcast on Facebook and Twtitter
There's a noise
I can hear it when the megaphone roars
Wipe the tears from this tear gas, choice
You have a choice
Stand in front of your fear, baby, time to find your voice
It's a story
A love story, you can believe in
Death, birth, your life's worth, it's trending
A story, a love story
How vain are we to expect a happy ending
I got my hands up
Follow directions 'til they shoot us
I'm fuckin' sick and tired of no justice
No peace
Promise me I'll never pick your body off the streets
We're all taking heat here (oh, oh)
The trust is broken, I don't get these police
Disenfranchised, step into a new life
Maybe if you listen to the wind, there's a war cry
Peace in America
Peace in America
Be decent, America
Let me sponge you off so the vision can get clearer
Your mother's crying, can you hear her?
What I see in you (uh, uh)
A young tree bearing fruit
Place to start (oh, oh)
Don't hide behind your heart

REALLY !!..... 1 hater 🤨 ...noooo they need love in their life.
This song really hits where you need it, esp during these hard times. #BLM #GeorgeFloyd #NoJusticeNoPeace
I can't believe not many ppl are hip to Nahko. It's the best medicine and music out their.
Ppl are afraid of the truth are generation isn't. We have no fear.
Dont make nahko about a drug dealing freeMason. Seripusly..
It took nahko like over 2 years to finalize the version. this is quality
though I want him to post the other versions as well
I may like this better then the original version! 🕉️
Been re mastered 2 perfection 👍

From what I read in his book. They broke down on the way to Alaska. Not sure if he's seen him sense then. I hope he has. We all have a journey to walk. And that means different paths we can't all follow the same path. Otherwise we would be zombies. Monkey see monkey do. I have an older brother who saved my life when I OD on a lot of bad medicine. Let's just say it's a miracle I am here. My brother found me right when I was about to leave. He said I couldn't breathe my face was turning blue I flat lined twice. 3 days in a coma. And God woke up me up disguised as the Devil in like a million little devil's that made one big face. It laughed at me. And I woke up instantly. To anyone who wants to leave. Put down the weight and get out of your way.
🖤
F**k I love this song!
Namaste.
I love you 😍
I love your song and my Uncle did to but he's gone for ever
This is exactly what this world needs to wake up. God I would give anything to make everyone on this planet lison to this and realy lison to it. Hear these words and take them to heart ❤. You are loved. Its OK to Put down the weight . You don't have to carry it any longer. 🥲
Its happening!
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏😢
oh yeah!!!
Why's no one reacting to this man I'll never know
Sometimes we fight and fight but more often than we need too talk and heal each other too get stronger
And hug the kids we have in our lives so they never feel the pain we did
love
💓
Yaya
Never trust this man around your daughter’s
I dont support pedophiles.. no matter how much I used to like your music!!
🎶😊👍✌✊💃❤
Some of the people are here
Dear Brother Don’t violate our future of mothers. Lost respect for Joel aka nahko
Im a fan.. but this song was a little cringe. Idk maybe its just me.
If this song makes you cringe look up so thankful and then look up why he wrote that song
Sorry if spell La Familia wrong
"We both know you can do better" - yeah, brother Nahko. We all know you can do better. Start with stronger accountability for all of the young women's lives you have impacted negatively with your poor behaviour.
Put down that weight.
Amen brother
Nahko never did that it’s prob from some person that’s a hater that’s lying to try to ruin his career
@@SukunaBlawg some person? There are numerous people who have come out about his inappropriate behaviour and sexual abuse. Many of the musicians who he tours and plays with have made public acknowledgement of this issue. A mans career is not worth protecting over and above the people who are hurt by that mans behaviour, sorry.
I would like to understand your perspective but when you hide behind a fake name and probably a fake picture it's hard to talk to someone about what you think is wrong with them and about how they have been wrong or desecrated other human beings and honestly what do you even know about me have you even ever met me what can we do to change this together would you like to talk about it? cuz honestly I would like to know what you mean and how you feel and what drives you to the point of distracting other people's life so you can make other people better movement of negativity and that's all it is I'm not attacking you I'm just speaking from the heart I hope you understand these things have a great day.
Big accusations about Nahko regarding being a perv. I hope he announces something.
