Brother Ali - The Preacher Lyrics
[Intro:]
Hit me hard, now
Ladies and gentlemen, you made the right choice this evening
[Chorus: x2]
Love my family love my God
Before I knew either I loved my art
So I'm married to the pen till death do us part
Rock hard with all my heart
College broads call me avant garde
Probably 'cause I'm all off the chart
Only thing poppy about me
Is what my Puerto Rican mami call me when she on me
And the raw me is all I let y'all see
Obviously a lot of y'all agree
Remind me, what the fuck can stop Ali?
Only me as far as I can see
Line 3 of "My Philosophy"
By BDP, it apply to me
I'm just the guy to lead a crew
That means the true people who believe in you
And hold you down and do what they need to do
Street Preacher
Say you don't believe what these people teach
Well me neither
He who follows his dream is deemed leader
The freedom fighter meets the peace keeper
See me creeping up in the pulpit
With a full clip fit to speak to the people
May I suggest you just believe dude?
Everything he speak on, really true
He's proved he would never mislead you
Or treat you as nothing less than equal
That's why they call me Brother Ali, too
The feeling always seems to bleed through
No quitting I kill it until the beats through
No kidding I'm real in everything we do
Rap beef bullshit so see through
They don't like the hoops they got to leap through
So they turn on each other like the weak do
Your little teeth chew meat, fool me too
[Chorus x2]
Rest assured I'm the best to do it in my neck of the woods
Hell yes I'm good
You can give me any test and I'll prove it no question
Let this be a lesson to you
When a superior send a message through the air waves
Your way, fool, just accept it
And consider it a blessing
I won't rest till the moment they press play
This jam come down and cave your chest in
There's a couple more things y'all have to know
Y'all been violating the rapper code
Can't just walk around here acting bold
Got to earn respect to brag and boast
Skills get you that not swag and clothes
Chin might get tapped, I crack your nose
Fall back before y'all collapse
Me, I'm an artist all a y'all are acts
That's why my heart bleed all on the track
Tell me what the fuck's wrong with that
Y'all foreplaying I'm raw dogging that
I lead the way 'cause y'all lost the path
This dialogue is all about the facts
That's why my stories are hard to match
Never been afraid at all, follow that
[Chorus x2]
Preacher in here this evening
Let me see your hands if you believe him
I don't know but I got this feeling
These people need some healing
And there just so few real ones
I got just what you're seeking
That giant can't keep sleeping
Wake up and touch that freedom

Brother Ali The Preacher Comments
just one of the best, and what a beat by Ant, standard.
MashaAllah
Bas Rutten answers us
awesome Cool good music lyricist poetry brother Ali favorite album cool black music
They don’t like the hoops they got to leap through ❤️
Clean music no doubt.
This is another dimension, from the bullshit pop bullshit they try to spoon fed us on the radio.
But you who apologize for the most problematic religion on planet Earth, simply because the artist himself bought into some version of it - gotta check your fucking theology.
This fucking artist, is world class.
"His" religion though, is a global catastrophe.
So they turn on each other like the weak do....
Brother Ali is insane his lyrics are always amazing and the beats he gets to emcee over just icing on the cake! Hugh love for him
yes islam is pride
Reminds me of that same track on EA sports"MMA"!!
I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but yes it is the song from Ea sports Elite MMA, it is a walk-in song.
very very very gooooooooooodddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I turned trailer park boys off to listen to this song. thats sayin alot
best song for a cool mornin' jogging
He can see more fans than u ever will
Ultimate boxing hype
Wait... he's white.... AND albino? No way...
way to miss the point. ali's experience with whiteness growing up was largely one of hostility, ridicule, and hatred owning to his albinism. he isn't here to score points for white people in an imagined struggle between musicians of different races
where? In PES4?
lukaj1n In EA Sports MMA too.
he's a musician. he don't need his eyes. indeed, i'm sitting here and listening with eyes closed - f..k hell, dope shit.
wow, way to forget the beastie boys...
He is Legally blind people look up his song stop the press he quotes it
he is legally blind dude its very common for albinos....
hes blind he is legally blind do research on him if your interested your on the net use it to your advantage
no one said you had to be black thats just black people have more history of suffering so they write about their suffering pain and happiness race and where you come from ( the hood) has nothing to do with it just aspect and other things to rap about
This is tight!
preach it brother
shoot limp bizkit goes harder than lil wayne lol
EA MMA LOL
LDN LONDON is it dumb that I got ea mma a few weeks ago 😐
Rick Jones Nah
LDN LONDON What's so funny?
did you really just say that?
lil wayne is a joke... and the fact that he's sold more records than elvis tells you alot about the mentality of the modern "hip hop" fan. i use the term "hip hop" loosely.... i don't consider much of the new crap hip hop. Ali IS hiphop! so glad i found his music!
How does being blind make you less hood than any one else? Just wondering.
brother ali's vision is fully functioning...
hes not white
wow harder than mac dre
that was FUCKING BOLD STATEMENT
MAC DRE AESOP ROCK BROTHER ALI...
TOP 3...dogg yous trippin
You gotta earn respect to brag and boast;
Skills get ya that, not swag or clothes.
...so true
Yes, he is legally blind. It is common for albino's I hear.
Hes not blind, he has a lazy eye..
Brother Ali is blind? Didn't know that
I dont get why people bring up mainstream rappers stop the this shit and listen to the music DAMMMMM
Ant form Rhymesayers Entertainment
Epic beast
Wow, this son is a BANGER. Brother Ali was in LA at the Little Temple Bar... Check out the video Vidzallday just posted. So sick. We had so much fun shooting the live performance.
He's legally blind, he said so himself in an interview for whole music club.
Realest Mother*u***r EVER

They have this on EA MMA. :D
@FedorCroCop44 they said the same thing about led zeppelin
you know you suck at life if you have to come on this video and dislike it 4 times. Seriously.
Brings an old take to new age.
This is my Monday morning "Get up and go get it" song.
@FedorCroCop44 what?
3 minutes and 25 seconds of straight fire
@UnoriginalName The MMA EA sports Ipod Game is BEAST!!
EA Sports MMA brought me here. Great song. It's my fighter's entrance music!
This guy has such fucking energy!!
Ant goes hard, makes beats for both Brother Ali and Atmosphere and they're probably the two most popular Rhymesayers. And I think Ant has a huge part to do with that, dope beats. And as for Ali being albino, who cares? He even says himself "race is a made up thing, I don't believe in it" and he also says "who the hell are you, discussing whether or not the brother is hardcore or not on a message board", the Lil Wayne sucks compared to Ali comments can stop. He knows it and we know it.
@bob90210 wow youre retarded haha its a black and white cover that doesnt mean they all are black kids
Some racist shit. Why all the kids gotta be black on the album cover?
@kevhar12 I thought the same when i first heard this tune
unbelievable beat!! brother ali goes hard!
fantastic!!!
awesome!
One of the best beats I've heard in my life. Love it!!
Great track off a great album. Off to see Ali in about 2 hours. Nice.
BRILLIANT!! :D
love the brass section in this song
Great Album.
punchline king...
