Namesake - Brother Ali[00:00:00]

I am somebody[00:00:05]

And we am and she am and he am and I am[00:00:10]

Somebody[00:00:15]

I was raised with the raised fist[00:00:21]

Angela Davis summer sixty-eight Olympics[00:00:24]

Train banging your wings against[00:00:27]

The cage in the event you became cageless[00:00:29]

The bane of my existence is to resist[00:00:32]

Back never bent re-load never relent[00:00:34]

Of All lights shone I'm glimmering glint[00:00:37]

I was named after a king in our midst The Greatest[00:00:39]

Changed the world in the ring with his fists[00:00:43]

More so with the gift when rang from his lips[00:00:45]

Bigger than just a individual gift[00:00:48]

He had a vision for bringing dignity to the crib[00:00:50]

Gold medalist in his Olympic event[00:00:53]

Significant respect glistening off his neck[00:00:55]

US flag waved the globe was silent[00:00:58]

Wore it everywhere he went just to show what it meant[00:01:01]

Stepped off the plane back on that pavement[00:01:04]

The people hell bent that they will never repent[00:01:06]

Celebrate him but his kin still clinched in a[00:01:09]

Problem one piece of medal couldn't fix[00:01:12]

Legend is he pitched it in the Ohio River[00:01:14]

What good is recognition if I know that I'm a -victim[00:01:17]

Expelled in a held back curriculum[00:01:20]

Class president slash second class citizen[00:01:23]

Diligent to fight for people[00:01:25]

Nineteen years old sacrificed his ego[00:01:28]

So here we go salute my namesake[00:01:31]

Many are successful very few are great[00:01:33]

Right on y'all I am somebody[00:01:40]

And we am and she am and he am and I am[00:01:46]

Somebody[00:01:51]

I am he am she am and we am[00:01:57]

Somebody[00:02:02]
