Horn Honks When Trying to Start Suburban

2002 Suburban 2500HD. Suddenly when i get in to start the vehicle, the horn blasts for as long as the key is turned, the usually orange security light turns red with a picture of a battery and the suburban does not start.
Accidentally discovered today that if i step on the brake pedal while attempting to start it, it DOES start. Wow. Not sure how these two things go together.
Any ideas?

Do you think it maybe the voltage issue of battery?
