| Victory
|
| Ours are the cries that breathe life in the concrete
|
| Victory
|
| Ours are the tears that splash genius at God’s feet
|
| Victory
|
| Ours are the prayers that weave poetry through drum beats
|
| Victory
|
| Step inside the mind of a soon-to-be legendary
|
| Straight paramilitary
|
| Brother Ali exist to read the scripture, it’s never read
|
| Whoever said this underground hip-hop shit is dead
|
| Must have fell and hit his head
|
| Spent my lifetime buildin
|
| Writin rhymes I remind rappers of everything that scared them as children
|
| They call me show stopper
|
| No opera singer has hit the exact pitch, I spit my flow out of
|
| Taught directly by the source of all knowledge
|
| You don’t affect me till you’re forced to draw powers
|
| Respect me as a voice amongst scholars
|
| Who speak deep to thee, move the sleep from your eye lids
|
| Make your lungs flutter
|
| Get it right, my inner light cast shadows on the sun, brother
|
| I’m where the rubber meets the concrete
|
| It’s a cold world, not sayin bring your your own heat
|
| I’m just sayin don’t sleep
|
| I’m walkin with Allah until the day that I die
|
| And the pens have been lifted and the pages have dried
|
| And a thick smoke screen wrote my name in the sky
|
| Politickin with the angels knowin they would reply
|
| Got the lungs of a cyclone, tongue of a python
|
| The reason why your favorite MC sleep with the lights on
|
| Right on, brother, we def as fuck
|
| Not 'deaf' like (What?) but 'def' like (WHAT!)
|
| From the depths around the planet where my name’s spoken
|
| We here to get our brains open and our chains broken
|
| Watch me walk around the planet with the same notion
|
| His adversaries thought the pain broke him
|
| But we run up in a stadium with diagnostics
|
| Two tables and a mic and take a crowd hostage
|
| And the very first item on my list of demands
|
| Is that all these freedom fighters start liftin they hands
|
| To my freedom fighters and the graffiti writers
|
| And the people like us — come forward
|
| And to the torch carriers speakin Arabic
|
| Ridin on your chariots — come forward
|
| To my political prisoners, individual listeners
|
| Who feelin this — come forward
|
| And to the bone shakers and the home makers
|
| Raisin our own saviors — come forward
|
| Me and my people are signed, sealed, delivered, incorporated
|
| Brought to you by Rhymesayers Entertainment
|
| You got to face it, we not complacent
|
| We came via the basement and left your face bent
|
| And me, mister Brother Ali is the stomp-down-beat-kicker
|
| Who walkin the streets with the so real philosophy
|
| Until I fulfill prophecy there’s no real stoppin me
|
| Obviously I’m the bomb, believe me
|
| Opponents come up missin and they all beneath me
|
| I know my soldiers need me, they call and beep me
|
| I walk the streets freely with chalk beneath me, boy
|
| We stays gettin it on
|
| Act hard and I probably make you strip to your thong
|
| Dissin your song and feel you mouth to fist when you yawn
|
| Nibblin on a rapper till the gristle is gone
|
| I stand and sing from atop my minaret
|
| I am a king, just ain’t got my kingdom yet
|
| And my anthem ring from the Congo to your set
|
| I’m Alfred Hitchcock with my silhouette
|
| Pourin Blood On Beats till the trumpet is blown
|
| Coffins, I release em when I’m up in the zone
|
| Fortune favors the brave and press on is the motto
|
| Cast shadows on the sun with my bravado |
