Lyrics Brother Ali

Brother Ali

Tremble

I'm a man, not a brand

Heart knows no bar code that can be scanned

Revealing what can't be held up in the hand

Bearer of the standard that you cram to understand

Uncharted land telescopes can't discover

Can't throw it at strippers to make 'em pretend they love you

I sew the seed like fabric at the seams

You can't sip it to lean, but you can give it to fiends

The most taken for granted on the planet

You can't Snapchat it or Instagram it

It's from the unseen realm where the camera can't film

But the coal gets scorched into diamonds in the kiln

Created and evolved, the khaliq and the rabb

The sun, moon and the stars, Alhamdulillah

The biggest secret but you can't Wikileak it

Cause an unbroken chain transmit it to the seekers

Little mysteries bring the biggest victories

I'ma click the dhikr beads 'til I'm rid of this disease

We the breath of God that was left in charge

They dread the second we remember what we are

I tremble in the presence of it

I tremble at the mention of it

The infinite love that animates the finite

The necessary where the possible derive light

Uncreated majesty and mercy

Irrestible end of every journey

Allah
