Brother Ali - Win Some Lose Some Lyrics
[CHORUS x2]
Man, you win some, lose some
They run the gamut from hilarious to gruesome
In my life I done caught some and threw some
And I done been in some shit
[VERSE 1]
Testosterone-filled hallway confrontation spectacle
Time to see who got the testicles
I'm not the type to holler, "What you wanna do then?"
Hands parallel to my shoulders, I keep it movin
There's one thing I hate is for another man to take control
Of a situation, you don't want me to play the role
I'm in my element on Front Street, I love a spotlight
Bringin an audience to diss me is just not right
But we're not gonna do it
This is a movement that I'm part of it
You're lucky I'm a righteous blackman"
And you thought I had issues now, really had em back then
I turned my back with the anti-climatic spitefulness
That's the worst type of diss
And I stepped off, adolescent, passive aggressive
Jesus Christ superstar to send the world a message
And there stood little man soft dick in hand
Wonderin "What the fuck just happened?" Not enough to kill a man
I turn the corner like as long as he ain't pullin a gun
I'd rather catch a ass-whippin than run
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 2]
I put them out there bad, too, really, they had to
I turned around, they runnin right directly at me, they looked mad, too
A half a minute felt like a half an hour
When he got close enough I stuck him once for black power
All three bombed on me, started swingin me around
Hollerin, "Get him down, get him down!"
I'm like fuck that, y'all don't gettin me on the linoleum
So three white boys can start stompin only one
They didn't hold back at all
They started bangin my head against a steel locker like a freakin racket ball
Grill was all busted, the locker was rusted
And when my face hit it it split my bicuspid
They spilled blood on my 'Boys N The Hood Increase the Peace' t-shirt
Now, isn't that symbolic?
I came to school a week later with a eye full of stitches
And I held my head higher than bitches
They lookin at me like, "Yeah y'all done fucked me up
What you think that's a thing that's gonna shut me up?"
Shit, nope, still swaggerin, still battle rappin
And still not givin em the satisfaction of bein mad
[CHORUS]

Brother Ali Win Some Lose Some Comments

I hate YouTube for not allowing me to smash the thumb up until I kill my battery
"You're lucky I'm a righteous black man / you thought i had issues now, I really had 'em back then"
he's not claiming to be black, he's saying when he was younger he thought of himself as black, and he's acknowledging how fucked up that is and that he was wrong to think that way
He's albino soooo yeah he's black...lol
how did he split his bicuspid, that's inside of your heart, I don't think brother Ali knows anatomy, but he sure can rhyme!
Can also be referring to a tooth, duh
Damn this is a good sounded track
I love it! "Win some lose some, this is one thing I will never forget." I have both wins and losses that I will never forget, and both contribute to my further development. :)
thats Hip-Hop
هههههههههه
MAD DOPE!
And it will lead to Meaningless Killings Peace to this world is War & Death
Culture is less real than race man
harmonica in this is nasty
peterjames314 nasty good or nasty bad?
with mos def as this guys profile pic, you know he has good taste in music
I would marry a man like Brother Ali. <3
this sample + cool beat is a winning mix. endless possibilities!!!!
By far Brother Ali's Best Album.
i just got my ASS KICKED by some stupid ass pricks who attend VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY at a party.. all i heard in my head was BROTHER ALI tellin me to sock them bitches in the face. and i did. i tried my hardest, but like my man says 8 on 1 aint no fight.. thumbs up for my brothers who been in my situation you just wanna KILL 'EM but you can't, this guy speaks the truth and he's the one who kept me from returning to this dumb ass party with a weapon. you win some, you lose some. but life goes on
yeah, however in your own comment lies the contradiction. Humans PROVED the world was round, to prove something is in itself an act of science.
My race or religion never closed my mind to any kind of music...what your saying really makes no sense at all..
man this is a good tune
hansolo - reality check.
bust some flows this beat
@MydnyghtObservere I wouldn't say "fk honour"... that's like saying 'fuck integrity or fuck morals'
Brother Ali is Albino. He has a condition with his skin. He uses the similarity from being discriminated in a white community as if he were of black or other ethnicity. Music is cool. Like some of his beats.
@ynot420x yea ill agree with you on that one and for the song i know what you're talking about but idk it mighta been from back when he didnt really want people to know to make a judgement from or knowing ali it could have been a form of personification. If you notice right around 1:00 in this song he says "I'm a righteous black man" I think a big part of it is even if he is genetically white he grew up in a typical black culture so he associates more with his culture than his genetics.
@ynot420x Ali's not black not that it matters.
@ynot420x WIGGER
all his songs are so f*ing awesome!!!!
he's a damn genius!!
i wish the whole world could feel this shit...
This man is amazing! I love the lyrics and the soulful sound. I didn't listen to hip hop or rap for years because all I heard was mainstream crap about bling, bitches and guns with canned drum beats. I was so psyched when I got introduced to underground. This is real, poetry to music, about shit we all can relate to.
@chrisandtheworld Yeah, with mainstream artists you will listen to their song for a little then forget about it, real rappers put out songs that inspire you and you always listen to them and becomes part of who you are kind of. High epiphany, sorry ;)
He thinks he is black.
im kinda glad that brother ali hasnt blown up because then he might change or something, you see it all the time
@JRebel206 ali is white...just sayin
so much soul in this song!! love it
Love this Song, Illest Beat and Lyrics
imo one of Ali's best tracks!
storryy tellinnn skilllsss... good music =]
I am member of 206 Zulu, the Seattle chapter of the Universial Zulu Nation and one thing I have learned, although Hip Hop is defantly "Black Music" the power and truth in the music, cuts through all cultures and races.
" If we can get the Hip Hop nation to unite, we could take the world over without even a fight. - J-Rebel.
<3 beautiful song
that album cover is sweet
nope, he was christian
song is tight brother ali got some serious soul
are u deaf? listen 2 d track playing above ok.
How Do You Sound Black?
It's a rumour/misconception that he's a black albino. He's actually white.
Although you def are speaking the truth, it should be illegal to mention those names in the same paragraph as Brother Ali.
sick beats sick rhymes.....all good
hahahaha chaps an albino black dude....he sounds black..never mind hes one of the greatest rappers out der at the moment..the fuckin honesty in his lyrics.
yeee! going to see the brother tonight in liverpool england i cant wait!
You need to tune up your hearing aid buddy:)
Brother Ali's tracks are dope. I'm loving all of 'em.
ohhhhhhhhhhh shiiiiiiiiit!
Im just discovering Brother Ali and his shit is so fresh. I've heard this track before, just never knew it was him.
