Brother, I'm Hungry Lyrics - Family Dinner, Vol. 2 - Snarky Puppy

In the land of milk and honey 

Its hard to understand 

Them that hold the power 

In the palm of their hand 

And have no comprehension 

Of what it means to be 

Standing at the mercy 

Of begging and defeat 

So all you unworthy sinners 

Without a pin to your name 

Looking up at someone new 

Writes the rules to the game 

But we stand with no one among us 

And watch without a tear 

Whats becoming of our brothers 

Every time, every time that we hear 

Brother I'm hungry 

I can't afford to eat 

Brother its cold outside 

Living rough on the streets 

In the land of milk and honey 

We all riding high 

We got our little fortune 

We got our piece of the pie 

While my brothers got a worry 

Bout where his head is gonna lie 

While this begs the question 

How long before you and I say 

Brother I'm hungry 

I can't afford to eat 

Brother its cold outside 

Living rough out here on the streets 

Brother I'm hungry 

I can't afford to eat 

Brother its cold outside 

Living rough out here on the streets
