Now ease up brethren

from Beastie Boys – Here's a Little Somethin' For Ya Lyrics on Rap Genius

The word “brethren” is a King James-era word for “brothers” or “brotherhood.” However, its New Testament use isn’t always gender-specific, as “Brethren” can be meant to signify “family” or “kindred.” Primarily, brethren is used in a formal or solemn address or to refer to the members of a profession, society, or sect.
