《Namesake》歌词

[00:00:00] Namesake - Brother Ali

[00:00:05] I am somebody

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

[00:00:15] Somebody

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:51] Somebody

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

[00:02:02] Somebody
