brother ali - howlin' wolf lyrics

yo, the mark is indelible
words ain’t just what i’m selling you for revenue
if it ain’t joy and pain it ain’t eligible
i’m a professional but this is not a spectacle
i specialize in what i memorize
it’s never sanitized no pesticides

the maintainer of a cultural container
for me spitting a flame is a no+brainer
it’s from the heart right
what i write sparks light in a dark night
and hook it like cartwright
i ask the audience y’all alright?
if i catch a second wind it’s gonna be a long night
of ho sayin and hands waving
and fans proclaiming their love for what that man’s saying
if you cry when you’re listening
you should know it’s a reflеction of mine when i scribbled thеm
i never hid them and bottled them inside myself
i rock and moan like the howlin’ wolf
rock and moan like the howlin’ wolf

all my narratives my comparisons
got me questioning the mirror that i’m staring in
my self deprecation is just arrogance
my self deprecation is just arrogance
feel that
the suicide of a false martyr
fail better fall smarter
to be truly sincere is a tall order
i’m disappointed in my enemies
how you gonna abandon me in contending with me?
to see is the one and only job of the seer
but it can’t see itself without a mirror
so cry me a river or find me a village
where the blind leading blind ain’t about pointing fingers
they left no stone unturned
when they canceled ancestors for something they just learned
can’t keep it bottled inside myself
i rock and moan like the howlin wolf
rock and moan like the howlin wolf

all my narratives my comparisons
got me questioning the mirror that i’m staring in
my self deprecation is just arrogance
