Daylight Lyrics - The Undisputed Truth - Brother Ali

My friend, give me a minute here 

You have no idea how to frame me 

"Brother Ali is this, Brother Ali is that" 

You ain't been right yet 

So ok I'll do it myself 

Ant, you got me? 

(Verse 1:) 

Big Brother the beast I'm showing my teeth 

Feel it all in the air it's too potent to breathe 

Explosive with the free, got a heavy one I wrote up my sleeve 

I could post up or go for the three 

Versatile with it I'm grinding until I get it 

Mindless of the defined limits or consequences

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

I defy critics I ain't scientific 

I find my intrinsic vibe and I ride with it 

Vocals no nothing other than soul touching 

So if they land in yours it's just a home-coming 

If they don't go there they might perish 

Land on deaf ears but die unembarassed 

You don't need to hear my race in the song 

You hear the plane that I'm on 

Your whole face change when I'm on 

Your ears might help you see 

Fuck hearing me I need you to feel like me 

(Chorus: x2) 

Daylight 

Let the dark side slide right on out you 

Don't deny it announce it to the Daylight 

Let it get inside of you 'cause you're not alive 

until you open up your eyes

(Verse 2:) 

I never asked my brothers to put that crown on me 

Now they want to frown on me, look down on me 

Pardon me I don't think I'm hurting anybody 

Just because I took shahadah but I'm cursing at the party 

Ain't showing I'm holy just showing the whole me 

Ya'll just pretend to be whatever your role be 

Don't get me wrong preist and rabbi innam 

but maybe that's why the masses don't respond 

Can't sit and nit pick but miss the big shit 

Expect us not to see the contradictions 

Want us to listen and join your religion 

I ain't got a pot to piss in who ya'll kidding 

I believe in the Qu'ran and all that's within it 

The concepts and all of the prophets that are mentioned 

But I talk directly to God so if I'm sinning 

ya'll ain't got nothing to do with me repenting 

(Chorus x2) 

(Verse 3:) 

If I'm an open book this is how I'm supposed to look 

I got to show it all and don't be shook 

So they ask me if I'm black or white, I'm neither 

Race is a made up thing I don't believe in it 

My genes tie me to those that despised me 

Made a living killing the ones that inspired me 

I ain't just talking about singing and dancing 

I was taught life and manhood by black men 

So I'm a product of that understanding 

And a small part of me feels like I am them 

Does that make me a liar maybe 

but I don't want the white folks that praise me to think they can claim me 

'Cause you didn't make me 

You don't appreciate what I know to be great yet you relate to me 

and that frustrates me and what can I say 

'cause I know that I benefit from something I hate 

But make no mistake our connection ain't fake 

It's never too late to clear off the slate 

You follow my tape then you know What I'm about 

If something comes up then it must come out 

(Chorus x2)
