You need to provide more information.

What year were you and your sister born and where were you born?

What is your mothers UK immigration status?

Is your father named on your birth certificate?

Where (country) were you born?

What is your visa status?

If your parents were not married, then you cannot get a passport directly. See link below of registering as British first.

Limited leave or Indefinite Leave to Remain?

What was your mother's status when you were born?
Your father has a British passport- how and when did he get his British citizenship. Is he U.K. born? If so- when?

Unless your mother had Indefinite Leave to Remain or its equivalent when you were born it appears that you are not a British citizen and need obtain British citizenship before you can have a British passport. There may be a number of options open to you including UKF (child of an unmarried British/settled father) or Form T (born in the U.K. and resident until age 10). UKF is likely to be the lowest cost but you'll need to provide more details to see if you are eligible.
