Family Truce - Ariel Petrie

Marci Taylor donated and requested a song written for her two children. I wrote the song about how having a brother or a sister is difficult sometimes, but overall we should try to get a long and be loving and supportive of eachother. Here are the lyrics that I wrote:

Baby brother come a little closer to me
I'm telling you something you don't want to miss
When fate rolled the dice and put you in the family
You may feel like you delt the wrong hand
When you got stuck with me
In this game of life we're always at odds
Feels more like a game of battle ship
with all this fighting going on.

Until we learn to live together it's not gonna be a candy land
I hope that you will understand

I'm calling a truce, I'm waving that white flag
I'm crossing the enimy lines just to shake your hand
We can learn to say we're sorry
Or we can cut eachother down
We can learn to be a family
Or we can let eachother drowned
So baby brother, come step closer
Because we know that there's no quitting this game.

Baby brother take some time to hear me out
'Cause this time I don't want to shout, together we can work it out
If we could see things from eachothers point of view
Then maybe we would have a clue what's going on with me and you
Lets take a risk and fix our relationship
Come on before the moment slips, I know we can handle it.

(To bridge and chorus)
