Round Here

Brother Ali is back in town
Came a long way to make that sound
Break through Earth from hallowed ground
Played with my blood to wear this crown
Brother Ali is back in town
World on my shoulder weigh me down
Break through Earth from hallowed ground
Played with my blood to wear this crown

Uh fact about it Im a force of nature
Leader of men boss of my organization
I aint in to bein ostentatious
I offered the pages that
Caught a lot of yall in the Matrix
Soon as I caught a break I was off to the races
Invaded the remotest possible places
Seen it first hand yeah its hard to explain it
Ive been around the world
Left my heart on them stages
They want your boy all all on they faces
Hollered out a roar they holla in amazement
I follow all the greatest A-list taste makers
That shaped this and theyre all innovators
Im so firmly grounded in the basics
Yeah dishonor get pounded to the pavement
Dealin with the voice of the nameless faceless
Face it your participation aint gonna be painless
I wont debate that Im sort of a sadist
I use most your faces to sharpen my blade with
Combat takin place not entertainment
Lives been lost its a hostile arrangement
Brother Ali is back in town
Came a long way to make that sound
Break through Earth from hallowed ground
Played with my blood to wear this crown
Brother Ali is back in town
World on my shoulder weigh me down
Break through Earth from hallowed ground
Played with my blood to wear this crown
Uh your eyes never spied where Ive been
Low parts where the heights of rhymin
Back alleys where the dice is flying
Darkness is trying the lights are blinding
Sheist environment the nights are violent
Red beam silent the sirens crying
Clean mighty tights or your life surviving
Nights where the roaches or mice might slide in

The highest you can climb is that limelight
And so downing on that mic meant fighting

Braggin rights are all that you rhyme with
Cant stand to see all your pride get sliced in
When the spotlight hit my shit yall just
Bet Im a stomp this motherf**kin party
Till its cold and lifeless
Close your eyelids behold the righteous
Its cold as night gets
Brother Ali is back in town
Came a long way to make that sound
Break through Earth from hallowed ground

Played with my blood to wear this crown
Brother Ali is back in town
World on my shoulder weigh me down

Break through Earth from hallowed ground
Played with my blood to wear this crown

There was a standoff
And theres like a Russian dude a old black pimp dude
Some gangsta black dude some Armenian dude
Like a motley crew literally
Like a weirdo but street angry grown ass men
Against me and Dibbs and Art and the God Loves Ugly crew
And its like a line and I walk in between em
And I just start going off
Like Cause Blood like motherf**ker
Im a get on the phone and Im a make everybody cry
Im just talkin crazy Im mad this is my hometown
Im about to call the homies
But you know like
The old pimp dude had a piece or something
Like a gun or something
And it was about to jump off
And then he goes like 'oh aint you Brother Ali '

Brother Ali you a bad motherf**ker man
