Facts - @BrotherAli is exactly what I need to lift my spirits. Mashallah.
The human soul yearns to be free, it's all the same
And I empty everything in the bank to give for it
I empty all the days of my life to live for it
I empty all the blood in my veins to fight for it
I empty all the ink in this pen to write for it

“I know it feels like the whip wounds will never mend / But it's the way of makin the oppressed prevalent men / We standin with humanity at destiny's door / Chanting the war cry “Never no more" / Y’all tryina talk about horrors you see / Feel free to tell your stories through me”
Brother Ali’s “Uncle Sam Goddamn” is one of my favorite writing tracks anytime I address… anything I work on.
I used it for this piece about the endless War on Terror, 20 years after September 11.
It was my soundtrack to reading everyone else's, too:
