Blood Brothers Lyrics

Watch your back because the next man is coming
And you don't know if the next man has done it
Survival of the fit is what it is
I got your back you got my back and that's the biz
Blood is rushing through my veins I got the power
Drain all the energy and with my strength I will devour
Chilly thoughts is running through my head
That's when I realized I'm glad I'm not dead

Corruption and abuse
The salesmen of our blood
For the police strengthen
Existence in the dark

It's in our nature to destroy ourselves
It's in our nature to kill ourselves
It's in our nature to kill each other
It's in our nature to KILL KILL KILL

It was a dream and then it hit me
Reality struck, and now my life is all shifty
And it all moves fast
Props to the prop 50, we all stand strong
And respect to my family and times of insanity
In the worlds of fulfility
I describe all d***s forcing on family
Blood brothers keep it real to the end
Deeper than the flux you think, not a trend

Corruption and abuse
The salesmen of our blood
For the police strengthen
Existence in the dark

It's in our nature to destroy ourselves
It's in our nature to kill ourselves
It's in our nature to kill each other
It's in our nature to KILL KILL KILL

I get it down

Corruption and abuse
The salesmen of our blood
For the police strengthen
Existence in the dark

It's in our nature to destroy ourselves
It's in our nature to kill ourselves
It's in our nature to kill each other
It's in our nature to KILL KILL KILL (repeat KILL)

It's in our nature to destroy ourselves
It's in our nature to kill ourselves
It's in our nature to kill each other
It's in our nature to kill

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

To understand the meaning of this song you must look at it backwards, the fact of the matter is this song is all about the rejection of society and the hardships to accel through life.

You know what...

The lyrics HERE say that he says... "For, Police Strengthen"

When Coby acually says "For, The Publics Craving"

The Song is About... As The Lead Singer Coby Dick states...

"I'll put a disclaimer on this song: Don't be a weak-minded bitch - just because I say "Kill, kill, kill" doesn't mean you should do that! If anyone thinks this is about The Bloods or The Crips, they're stupid - it's not. The chorus is reflecting on people who don't stay tight, people who turn on each other. As a band, especially, we need to stay tight because there are a lot of people who are out to get you, to take advantage of you and exploit you. I need to stay free from corruption of the music industry. I feel my music is part of my body and that some people involved in it are "the salesmen of my blood." This is a reminder to myself to be a good person because I'm not really a good person all the time"

i think the song is about being happy in life (i'm glad i'm not dead), but i also think it is about death (its in our nature to kill ourselves its in our nature to destroy each other) it means we all kill each other and we kill ourselves.
