《Stop The Press(Instrumental)》歌词

[00:00:00] Stop The Press (Instrumental) - Brother Ali

[00:00:02] Another one of them long a** breaks.

[00:00:05] Damn, Brother Ali where the hell you been?

[00:00:08] What, you disappear?

[00:00:09] Stop the presses give me couple seconds

[00:00:12] Let tell my friends what’s up with big brethren

[00:00:14] New year new beard a new record

[00:00:17] Made a few adjustments I want to discuss it

[00:00:19] In a life of pain and sadness

[00:00:21] Never would’ve guessed that a taste of success

[00:00:24] Would’ve been the first time I ever got depressed

[00:00:26] I know I’m blessed I just couldnt ’adjust

[00:00:29] In life all I ever knew how to do is fight

[00:00:31] Scrapped on the playground fighting for the mic

[00:00:33] Trying to build a life with an insane wife

[00:00:36] Fighting for a little bit of time in the light

[00:00:38] Then I got a daughter a car and house

[00:00:40] No one left to fight with but myself

[00:00:43] Gained a lot of weight wasn’t thinking about my health

[00:00:46] Maybe the music I’m making could help

[00:00:48] I can’t drive ‘cause this albino sh*t

[00:00:50] Told you I was legally blind that’s legit

[00:00:53] I ain’t want Ant to have to come scoop the kid

[00:00:55] So I bought a crib a couple blocks from his

[00:00:58] That’s the greatest friend I ever had

[00:01:00] Like a brother to me a borderline dad

[00:01:02] Maybe making a record will get me on track

[00:01:05] Help fix whatever’s wrong with my head

[00:01:07] I jumped back in the basement at once

[00:01:09] Made the album Us in a couple of months

[00:01:12] But I can’t lie to y’all I felt lost

[00:01:14] Energy I brought might’ve been a bit off

[00:01:17] Couple great moments though of course

[00:01:19] Babygirl Puppy Love and The Travelers

[00:01:21] I toured two years off that album

[00:01:24] Was on the road ten months out of one of them

[00:01:26] Did the globe with my brother BK

[00:01:29] My life coach slash DJ

[00:01:31] Literally been with me since day one

[00:01:33] Had a lot of hard times had a lot of fun

[00:01:36] Long story short he got hell of a wife

[00:01:38] Catastrophe damn near ended her life

[00:01:40] Brought our wifeys out to Hawaii

[00:01:43] These f**kers got pregnant on Waikiki

[00:01:46] He said "I need to talk to you Ali

[00:01:48] This is what you were born to do, but not me"

[00:01:50] So after Soundset two thousand and ten

[00:01:52] Say goodbye to my Deejay but not my friend

[00:01:55] My career ain’t stop it just grew

[00:01:57] I rock(ed) the bells and Glastonbury too

[00:02:00] Close enough to smell Beyonce’s perfume

[00:02:02] But it just ain’t the same without dude

[00:02:05] Couldn’t slow me down no lord

[00:02:07] Stayed on the planes and the busses and cars

[00:02:09] Brought a young DJ into the squad

[00:02:11] Sucker quit on me cause I toured too hard “Wahhhh”

[00:02:15] On to the next one

[00:02:17] Then me and Ant had trouble connecting

[00:02:19] If I was here then he was always there

[00:02:21] Touring or recording with Atmosphere

[00:02:24] What the hell's goin on with my career

[00:02:26] Within a year my team disappeared

[00:02:28] Got a phone call on the 4th of July

[00:02:31] My dad died, he committed suicide

[00:02:34] Sh*t should've been there for him

[00:02:36] Had to fly home from Europe to bury him

[00:02:39] Im sorry, I need a minute

[00:02:41] Bismillah...) Alright, listen

[00:02:44] Trying to hold this marriage together

[00:02:45] But me and my baby barely see each other

[00:02:48] I’m in France with the fans taking pictures

[00:02:50] She’s with the kids making dinner doing dishes

[00:02:53] She ain’t got to worry bout me screwing other

[00:02:55] But that ain’t enough to make a woman feel precious

[00:02:58] If we don’t start to intersecting

[00:03:00] We got no choice but grow in different directions -Damn

[00:03:03] I got that phone call again

[00:03:05] You know the kind you never want to get

[00:03:07] Mikey’s mom couldn’t get a hold of him

[00:03:10] And found him dead in his apartment

[00:03:13] Just drowning in tears

[00:03:14] Probably won’t get over that in all my years

[00:03:17] I’ll remember forever

[00:03:19] A day later boarded a plane to Mecca

[00:03:22] And the next month changed my life

[00:03:24] Listening to God in the holy sites

[00:03:26] Inklings I had all my life

[00:03:28] Suddenly presented themselves in plain sight

[00:03:31] Any doubts I had about the mic

[00:03:34] And whether or not what I write is right

[00:03:36] Fell out of sight like the tears on the floor

[00:03:38] Now I’m going harder than I ever did before

[00:03:41] Got a couple of beat tapes from Jake

[00:03:43] Genuine dude and his music is great

[00:03:45] I told Zach to hold my tour dates

[00:03:48] Roll the tape I got something to say

[00:03:54] So, I’m gonna go make this album.

[00:03:56] Let me start it off right though
