Little Brother
by Brian Doerksen

Album: Prodigal God


THE ELDER SON
Little brother, even in your sleep
Still you mock me
Your consequence I reap
Little brother, is this why you've returned?
Back to plunder everything I've earned
It's no wonder there's nothing left that's mine and mine for keeps
How much can you take from me?
Did you love her, did you even know her name?
Now a baby, adding to your shame
Who could blame you for seeking pleasures I have been denied?
How much can you take from me?
Still, as I see you lying there
Some tenderness remains alive in me
You took the lead, dreaming up your dreams
Living life like I would never dare
Yet I am the master now, and you should be the slave
Until you have paid me back all that Father gave
He gave his best to you, his finest vintage poured into you
And you wasted every drop
Now your life of endless blessing stops
Little brother it's time to go to work
No more dreaming, I'll drag you down to earth
Here's my vision
Your every drop of blood and sweat is mine
How much can you take?
How much can you take?
Not as much as I will take from you

(Spoken) Look at him. Our hero.
The little thief who gives you little choice.
You gotta love him.
We are his victims.
