Brother Ali - Rain Water Lyrics

We have rappers & hip pop but this is ART

Gods rain water

Ali is Fuckn amazing lyrically,period

Genius. I'm 45 years old, still getting inspired. 26 year old daughter and 22 year old son that grew up on BROTHER ALI.

38 yr old new father and I've been listening to Brother Ali and Atmosphere for 20 years. Definitely music you can appreciate and enjoy with your kids. Good on you for taking interest!

Sick beat, so fire 🔥🇧🇷

This song has helped me so much...to get back on my feet.. shits way too real

Love this 2018

One of the best songs by Ali, which puts it in the running for one of the best songs ever

Im gonna have this played at my funeral!!!!!!!!!!

One worthy soul here.

I don't know if you read these comments Ali; I want to remind you, your words have power. They have helped me through hell fire and replenished through gods rain water. You're an inspiration, keep it true.

Brother Ali... man you saved my life 1000 times n u dont even know me. You inspired me to sing with an open heart and a free soul.

Comment is proof this is emo rap

@Ryan Cheverie
😂

just broke down crying on the bus to this song, lifes hard as fuck right now. thanks ali, this is true inspiration. "at times you gotta kick your way though this bitch" ✊

Brother Ali Us, rainwater and you say are epics ones you say is absolutely amazing.

Second verse, my favourite verse.. hands down.

gets me through some shit

If you don't feel this, you're playing in life. Theme music for soldiers of Allah living in the land unbelief. Fire for real.

I love this song so much

rip Ali goat

he didnt die fuck off

+Sabastian Larson what

+Joshua Pleasant huh? what?

+Sabastian Larson cant handle

+Bash Em! i think he was talking about muhamad ali not brother ali

mmmm serenity

I know it wont happen probably again but Ant needs to produce Ali's albums again. I know they think their journey ended with US. This beat is just why Ant is one of the greatest producers of all time. Only Ant really captures the soul that is Ali in the production.

Yeah i saw. Lol. Ant brings out the right emotions in Ali with the production. As much as i liked Morning in America. It didnt have any tracks like this.

+Clark Townsend I completely agree with you. This and the Us album are my two absolute favorites from him.

They're in the studio!! lol

Clark Townsend Might wanna check yoself brother haha

They do work together, only projects that weren't were the one with jake one and freeway. Ant only produces for Slug/Atmosphere and Brother Ali.

Ma sha Allah

I don't understand how this song can ever get a dislike...... Who are these people really???

And only 1K likes?! lol

@scottsmyth87ss exactly

+Aslam Uddin every person I have showed ali to has at least one or two songs they play very often. keep sharing lol

@scottsmyth87ss yup. Some of my friends listen to him and enjoy his music now. 👌👌.

I feel like i almost hear biggies voice when ali is rapping sometime, its crazy.

One of HipHop purists that writes from heart and leaves it inevitable for you to feel him...Keep fist cliched, at times you gotto kick you way through this bitch!!!!

need tae come out to scotland brother!!

Realness never gets old and time is an illusion anyway (:

whoa... came here expecting millions of hits - how is this still not overflowing with fans.  smh

@Letters from a Psychopath Intelligent hip hop rarely gets the recognition it deserves. It is the biggest tragedy in modern music in my opinion

+Letters from a Psychopath People can't comprehend the realness and emotion.... the masses would rather listen to dumb ignorant rap

'Clearchannel' as well... I believe that if this kind of music was on more stations ppl would actually be listening to the radio!!

Bro. Ali is tight!

If you ever doubt that Hip Hop still lives, listen to this song and know that your speakers are bringing you true and living sound...nuff respect Brother Ali...ONE::

@Lynxchillin08 Well idk if you're aware but, "they" fluoridate our drinking water in america to calcify our pineal glands, which in turn 'dumbs us down. Although many would say these sound like conspiracy theories from a delusion person, this knowledge is actually much more common then alot would think. The reason most aren't aware is because these are things we've been conditioned not to talk about. This was achieved threw social engineering via (via-com aka) television  in general, school, etc. @michael fernandez i didn't have to call you a moron, sorry 

that's so true...our pineal glands are fucking compromised n been since everyone since

The tin foil is strong with this one.

Smh.

@Lynxchillin93 always turn away or in worst case scenario punch...

@Martin Mikkelsen ?

this shit, be realistic -won't stick,
yesterday my day got grey, but i prey, prey amen, for an way throu the pain//
I gain strength, talking to the lord allmighty, don't fight me -aight G
-put down your hate, faith is what u need -or the devil will feed -on you
check this out, if you are a friend of God, stand and shout -dont doubt!

can I get an AMEN

AMEN AMEN AMEN

I started listening to Ali back in 2002 and this is still the greatest music out there, amazing!

Gods rain water flow threw the same gutter we walk today. Got stay brave  brother. Keep your lips stiff, keep your fist clinch. At times you got to kick your way threw this bitch.

"They're tellin' me we got nothing to fear but fear itself, but I fear I have no human fear left. Someday I'm gonna wanna peal back these calluses and really feel life again, and that's what my challenge is. I've been kickin' and bitin' for so long that when they throw me a rescue rope I'll be too weary to hold on and see the light, so I sing through the tears and the key of life, the way a wounded eagle might." My god that's some powerful shit. Brother Ali is a lyrical mastermind

Jah means Jahwe
Peace

True hip hop lives in the Underground

Top song.

I cannot believe this song doesn't have millions of views

God loves ALL.

not jah, but GOD!

You're a pawn.*

always like this dude different old skool 1

Damn! i LOVE this piece ****Chi-Love****

very inspiring

This song is amazing.

but he sings with the soul or a similar soul as the old negro songs that helped them get through the hell that was thrust upon them.

I'm cursed with this earworm by Brother A. since two days. Seems if the disease is the cure by itself. So, i have to repeat and everything will be fine.

Hell yes - today i was sitting in our store and listenning to this beautiful song. Suddenly, my mother came in. She hate rap. I was on my way to mute it, but she said:"Wait, this sounds beautiful. It's poetic in may ways." We listend to it two times more. I was bowled over. brother ali convinced my mother to rap.

And that mother's name? Albert Einstein.

I'd say the fact he's legally blind is pretty impressive.

Purity of soul, brother. It knows no boundary of creed or color. Only the soul.

I wish Brother Ali was my big Brother :)

He's not the definition of beautiful but these are the fingerprints of god :)

that has no relevance to the point

i haven't heard one bad song or album from brother ali. all around genius.

i don't know what song you were listening to but this definitely doesn't deserve a million views...






I'd say at least 10 million. 1 just doesn't do it justice

This should have millions of views

Everybody man, anybody who's been negative, doesn't matter who he's responding to, he isn't wrong.

who are you responding to?

God loves ugly.

He's pretty good looking, I mean, com on.

Wow, the Drake fanboys here are clueless.

Its starting to piss me off when every underground hip hop video there is a comment about how popular artists are not true to the art. That is obvious, but complaining about it will not make any difference.

hit zero

glad I stumbled onto this dude. makes me feel like there is still hope for hiphop.

245,999 views? awesome lol

it's been awhile since I heard a emcee like this

this music heals the soul its not that people dont want to hear it, there not ready for it, they would just rather live in a materialistic unhappy existence that coorilates comparably to the music they listen to and the way they think.

i beleive in this man he can change the world

drake is a puppet

drake is fucking legit

he is an amazing inspiration he so get made world wide

If you work hard, I will work harder. If I am tired, I will work harder. If I cant go on anymore, I will work harder. I will work hard on every aspect of my life. Everything I do, will be the equivalent of laying down a brick in my castle of defined succes. I will lay every brick perfectly as I possibly can untill I have finished my castle.

That is how I get through my times of rain water. My life has been a wasted piece of shit long enough. There is only so much you can blame on others.

still missing the point....

just sayin, my experiences have changed me, that could be because of me as a person

cool story but I think your missing the point.

i've been through some shit too, im only 19 and i've experienced more trails and tribulations than a 19 year old should, mostly mental and emotional. when i look back i'm glad thats all ive been through, things could have gone much worse and i learned and still am learning from where im at in life and i know im not finished fighting but deep in the dirt under lots of pressure come diamonds, ali wouldnt have the mind and heart if it wasnt for those struggles.

I agree with you almost completely, but you have to avoid judging and comparing how much shit people have been through, as a guy who's been through a fair bit, it doesn't change you, you change you. Admire Ali for his beautiful mind and thoughts, not his struggle, i wouldn't expect you to admire me for mine.

Believe whatever you want man. I think anyone who buys Drake's album, who buys him another Lamborghini or another bottle of Cristal, is a terrible person. His lyrics are cold and hollow, and just distract people from life and their problems. They suffer and believe they'll be happy someday because he fills their head with dreams; as if buying an album means they are "getting money" and "fucking bitches". Ludicrous that you think the best way to address a problem is to ignore it.

thats the silver line. His apperence isnt exactly a perfect design but his soul,intelligence,and art form is almost godly

I agree with everything you have said. Although you need to take in to account that the general population, show a lower intellect than a house brick.

Ali is beautiful!

Ali got voted best minnesota recently

like he says "you can call me ugly but can't take nothing from me, i am who i am doctor you ain't gotta love me"

Brother Ali is far from blind. He's just sensitive to bright light.

he's also blind...guy has gone through a lot

sick shit....enough said

The 11 idiots who disliked this song are well, as Don Fuego 1 said, new generation loving pre packaged fake ass bitches. This IS real hip hop

it makes me happy too see im not alone!! :)

"race is a made up thing, i dont belive in it"

i try to listen to lyric. my brother makes it worth trying!

11 muppets like xfactor

his beats are so fucking unique

so what if hes fat, so what if hes white, so what if he not good looking, hes still a man, a man with a soul, a man with a heart, a man who bleeds red just like you, but because he a white albino muslim rapper that makes him a joke, hes probly been through more shit than any of you and because of that he makes rap for real people and if you cant see that, your not a real person, your a pawn.

He's not even that fat.. & He's not even that ugly looking (no homo) .. ppl are just ignorant. The media has programmed people to focus on appearances.. The writers and media outlets grab attention by over-exaggerating on his physical features and religion. What they should be focussed on his AMAZING TALENT. Fuck the media & the mainstream culture. Nvm what you look like.. what colour your skin is, whether you're blind or parapeligic.. If you're Authentic and Talented.. THATS ALL THAT MATTERS

Sick of hearing "Hes not fat just filled with lyrics" Every fat rapper gets the same shit. Brother ali simply makes up for what he lacks in coloured pigments with dope lyrics

@filipscooliscool They used that with Earl's lips lmao

"He's not fat, he's just filled with lyrics" i'm pretty sure they used that for biggie smalls, but it works here too

inspirational rapper.
