| [00:00.00] | Stop The Press - Brother Ali |
| [00:02.11] | Another one of them long a** breaks |
| [00:05.83] | Damn Brother Ali where the hell you been |
| [00:08.64] | What you disappear |
| [00:09.70] | Stop the presses give me couple seconds |
| [00:12.32] | Let tell my friends what's up with big brethren |
| [00:14.88] | New year new beard a new record |
| [00:17.12] | Made a few adjustments I want to discuss it |
| [00:19.68] | In a life of pain and sadness |
| [00:21.81] | Never would've guessed that a taste of success |
| [00:24.24] | Would've been the first time I ever got depressed |
| [00:26.55] | I know I'm blessed I just couldn't adjust |
| [00:29.03] | In life all I ever knew how to do is fight |
| [00:31.46] | Scrapped on the playground fighting for the mic |
| [00:33.77] | Trying to build a life with an insane wife |
| [00:36.08] | Fighting for a little bit of time in the light |
| [00:38.58] | Then I got a daughter a car and house |
| [00:40.90] | No one left to fight with but myself |
| [00:43.36] | Gained a lot of weight wasn't thinking about my health |
| [00:46.17] | Maybe the music I'm making could help |
| [00:48.10] | I can't drive 'cause this albino sh*t |
| [00:50.60] | Told you I was legally blind that's legit |
| [00:53.09] | I ain't want Ant to have to come scoop the kid |
| [00:55.65] | So I bought a crib a couple blocks from his |
| [00:58.02] | That's the greatest friend I ever had |
| [01:00.21] | Like a brother to me a borderline dad |
| [01:02.64] | Maybe making a record will get me on track |
| [01:05.01] | Help fix whatever's wrong with my head |
| [01:07.57] | I jumped back in the basement at once |
| [01:09.77] | Made the album Us in a couple of months |
| [01:12.01] | But I can't lie to y'all I felt lost |
| [01:14.70] | Energy I brought might've been a bit off |
| [01:17.32] | Couple great moments though of course |
| [01:19.32] | Babygirl Puppy Love and The Travelers |
| [01:21.84] | I toured two years off that album |
| [01:24.46] | Was on the road ten months out of one of them |
| [01:26.77] | Did the globe with my brother BK |
| [01:29.20] | My life coach slash DJ |
| [01:31.45] | Literally been with me since day one |
| [01:33.69] | Had a lot of hard times had a lot of fun |
| [01:36.19] | Long story short he got hell of a wife |
| [01:38.57] | Catastrophe damn near ended her life |
| [01:40.99] | Brought our wifeys out to Hawaii |
| [01:43.24] | These f**kers got pregnant on Waikiki |
| [01:46.06] | He said "I need to talk to you Ali |
| [01:48.12] | This is what you were born to do but not me" |
| [01:50.43] | So after Soundset two thousand and ten |
| [01:52.74] | Say goodbye to my Deejay but not my friend |
| [01:55.49] | My career ain't stop it just grew |
| [01:57.73] | I rock(ed) the bells and Glastonbury too |
| [02:00.23] | Close enough to smell Beyonce's perfume |
| [02:02.66] | But it just ain't the same without dude |
| [02:05.22] | Couldn't slow me down no lord |
| [02:07.34] | Stayed on the planes and the busses and cars |
| [02:09.71] | Brought a young DJ into the squad |
| [02:11.96] | Sucker quit on me cause I toured too hard “Wahhhh” |
| [02:15.20] | On to the next one |
| [02:17.39] | Then me and Ant had trouble connecting |
| [02:19.44] | If I was here then he was always there |
| [02:21.69] | Touring or recording with Atmosphere |
| [02:24.18] | What the hell's goin on with my career |
| [02:26.56] | Within a year my team disappeared |
| [02:28.93] | Got a phone call on the 4th of July |
| [02:31.36] | My dad died he committed suicide |
| [02:34.24] | Sh*t should've been there for him |
| [02:36.24] | Had to fly home from Europe to bury him |
| [02:39.37] | I'm sorry I need a minute |
| [02:41.49] | Bismillah Alright listen |
| [02:44.18] | Trying to hold this marriage together |
| [02:45.79] | But me and my baby barely see each other |
| [02:48.29] | I'm in France with the fans taking pictures |
| [02:50.60] | She's with the kids making dinner doing dishes |
| [02:53.14] | She ain't got to worry bout me screwing other |
| [02:55.63] | But that ain't enough to make a woman feel precious |
| [02:58.26] | If we don't start to intersecting |
| [03:00.32] | We got no choice but grow in different directions -Damn |
| [03:03.74] | I got that phone call again |
| [03:05.80] | You know the kind you never want to get |
| [03:07.80] | Mikey's mom couldn't get a hold of him |
| [03:10.42] | And found him dead in his apartment |
| [03:13.04] | Just drowning in tears |
| [03:14.91] | Probably won't get over that in all my years |
| [03:17.91] | I'll remember forever |
| [03:19.72] | A day later boarded a plane to Mecca |
| [03:22.15] | And the next month changed my life |
| [03:24.33] | Listening to God in the holy sites |
| [03:26.71] | Inklings I had all my life |
| [03:28.95] | Suddenly presented themselves in plain sight |
| [03:31.70] | Any doubts I had about the mic |
| [03:34.01] | And whether or not what I write is right |
| [03:36.25] | Fell out of sight like the tears on the floor |
| [03:38.56] | Now I'm going harder than I ever did before |
| [03:41.24] | Got a couple of beat tapes from Jake |
| [03:43.55] | Genuine dude and his music is great |
| [03:45.99] | I told Zach to hold my tour dates |
| [03:48.23] | Roll the tape I got something to say |
| [03:54.00] | So I'm gonna go make this album |
| [03:56.49] | Let me start it off right though |
