    This footage was shot by Amal Flower Kay on the first leg of our Own Light Tour with Sa-Roc, Last Word and Sol Messiah.

      Word. I love that it's totally clean yet still sounds dope and preaches love. Played this over and over for my summer skateboard camps.

    Damn... I still remember seeing Brother Ali (and Slug) playing in front of like 60 People in Berlin back in 2007 (they both played as Support for Sadat X on that day...)... it is just amazing how big this all got since way back then... without ever making any compromise...

    You're welcome:
    You say one love, you can't unlove
    I don't know what it is you're trying to run from
    Like you just, you're trying to unfriend me in real life
    I want it all real, nothing fake please
    I don't want to wonder what your handshake means
    I don't need to say everything I think I must
    My ego's trying to ruin everything I touch
    What I mean though or what my point is
    That you're much more important than my point is
    If I win an argument and loose your heart Lord
    I hit the bullseye on the wrong dart board
    I want to thank everyone for being patient with me
    It's a journey that I'm on, I pray you take it with me
    And to quote myself that's what this is about
    "We live learn and figure it out"
    Oh my God now
    It ain't easy when it's real
    Just don't leave because I still need your patience
    And hear me when I say this
    It ain't easy when it's real
    In my heart you know I feel
    All your greatness and baby we can make it
    I want the real love, not the false kind
    Not the one that need perfectness at all times
    When it seems most difficult to keep me close
    Is probably the time that I need you most
    I let you down though, I didn't mean to
    Even the people who try, we get weak too
    And when you said we were family, I believed you
    Because I needed so bad for it to be true
    Now is my heart that way, would I try to betray?
    Is there any such thing as an honest mistake?
    If what you need and what I have don't match
    That's when we need the love thing to fill those gaps up
    It ain't easy when it's real
    Just don't leave because I still need your patience
    And hear me when I say this
    It ain't easy when it's real
    In my heart you know I feel
    All your greatness and baby we can make it
    I'm a hot mess and if I'm honest
    It's not just one event but a process
    If I'm tryna get out here and protest
    Let me first save the world from my foolishness
    Let me guard my heart from its harshness
    Try to rid my truth of its falseness
    If your beauty is closer than an arms length
    You'd be hard pressed to tell me that its far fetched
    I know I hurt you though, you took it personal
    But what's love if the essence isn't merciful?
    And I see no need for us to live with regrets
    I'd rather just forgive and forget
    Oh my God now
    It ain't easy when it's real
    Just don't leave because I still need your patience
    And hear me when I say this
    It ain't easy when it's real
    In my heart you know I feel
    All your greatness and baby we can make it

    Big shame that great music like this doesn't go huge like the mainstream garbage......probably because negativity/ hate and corruption make more money an promote materialism and greed......ALL the stuff we DON'T need.
