      We must LOVE one another to become a better human race. give Jesus a chance you got nothing to lose because the devil been running the show since you haven't accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then you gotta build the relationship and keep both feet in so God can control your destiny.

    My 6 year old autistic son just requested this song while we were driving in the car and "never learn" ended. An upbeat pop type song came on and he said "what hearts are for!" I couldn't understand him at first over the music and a/c in the car but he was determined to get me to turn it on lol
    I've had a few of your songs on my driving Playlist for a couple months now and I always see him in the back very focused and intently listening to the lyrics, sometimes mouthing the words. 🥰
    One time "Us" was playing and I switched it because I had just listened to it just before picking him up and he insisted that I put it back on. 😊
    You and Jason Mraz he loves and always talks about the messages in the songs afterwards. He can feel the heart! 🥰
    I love bumping good lord and fresh air while cruising too, they always put me in a good mood 😊
    Thank you for your music. I love being able to share meaningful music with my little ones and help instill positive messages through song. 💖

      I almost never sign in to comment, but I cried too, and I know why. Two people shot this morning, one dead. I don't know them, but it happened a couple blocks from my home, now my wife wants us to take our 10 year old daughter and move out of Madison. I'm crying for the love we are having so much trouble finding in the city where I was born. I'm crying for the mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters who have lost so much, who can't feel safe, who are forced to fear and shut out the love. For our own sakes we've got to drop the gun and reach out to each other. This world is big enough and beautiful enough for all of us to be ourselves and love others for doing the same. Thank you Brother Ali, for showing it to us."Peace it together" is not a typo.

    Brother Ali has saved soo many lives and I can honestly say that without even knowing for sure that he did or not but knowing in my heart that his words did. I reminiss and reflect a lot on my own life everytime one of his songs comes on or comes back into my life. Because throughout my whole life God has been using his songs and lyrics to guide me up out of many dark situations. Brother Ali is soo pure and genuine and such a lyrical genius that I feel obligated to share his songs with as many people as I possibly can. and every person that I shine the light on with his music that doesnt already onow his influence and impact on the world become enlightened before my very eyes and it is soo beautiful. So I just want to sy thank you Brother Ali and please continue to saves lives by shining your light on peoples hearts. And I love you man God Bless

      Dale Hawkins There is no such thing as Christianity, Islam, Hindu.... NOT A SINGLE PROPHET LABELED THEIR RELIGION WITH A NAME! The ONLY religion on Earth is LOVE. Corrupt men used the words of God to control and manipulate with FEAR, which is the absence of love. Who are you? Abraham/Brama knew. Moses Knew. Noah knew. Krishna/Christ/Jesus/Isa knew. Muhammad knew. Once you know, you have done your part here ;)

      DGRIFF! That's a universal perspective. i agree all "Religions" have SOME truth in it. If some1 says "Hey I'm a Christian" then you know that he's a follower of Christ.
      See there is a difference, we shouldn't ignore the fact there's fundamental differences.
      it doesn't stop us from love i agree. But to put that all these different ppl had this same notion is completely false.

I don't really understand your comment or it's context though, so forgive me if I get it wrong. Yep, words matter. You're not a word ? Yes you are. We all are. Human. Alive. Words are how we relate to our world, and each other, and it's why Brother Ali's verse is so powerful. Words. Faithful. Honest. Accepting. Friend.
      I'm a word. I'm plenty of words. I don't understand a lot of what's happening in the world today, but I identify by the following terms: father, friend, husband, dipshit, boofhead, guy, dude, fella, mate.

      I helped build one of the sail boats he sailed around the world I was told some of the making was in film at cans film fest and the boat is in Smithsonian Museum! According to Howard Rice who filmed me making some of the boat said he talked to producer's and the back story of me and life they wanted to use and then as soon as I mentioned his name to Charlie Rebtstabt I could no longer be involved with project at film fest making boat or the plans for non profit works he promised her help set up!

    You're not using your heart for, what hearts are for
    They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
    I thank God for healing
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    Thank God for listening
    Listen, you've been trying to build me up my whole life
    I thank God for building
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    I thank God I'm living
    Sometime I feel like a stranger
    Maybe I ain't from here
    World going crazy, how could that be unclear?
    Know that I'm a soldier, heart's on my battleground
    Sword in the holster, had to come back around
    I ain't trying to hide away, I just had to meditate
    I ain't got a lot to say, but the ancestors may
    Speaking to the whole globe, numbers don't occur to me
    You can listen solo 'cause you're the whole world to me
    I jump in with both feet, nothing low key
    You can find me where I'm s'posed be, where my folks be
    If you listen very closely, you know who chose me
    Nothing that I own owns me, and so I'm so free
    I remember being hungry, needing groceries
    Nighttime getting no sleep 'til my nose bleed
    Got a message to the police:
    You're not using your heart for, what hearts are for
    They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
    I thank God for healing
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    Thank God for listening
    Listen, you've been trying to build me up my whole life
    I thank God for building
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    I thank God I'm living
    Not for one second, I believe what you're telling me
    I know you invent the disease and sell the remedy
    Universe is sending me centuries of memories
    So the very breath that I breathe is all I ever need
    I got that Muhammad Ali up in my pedigree
    Yes I be speaking my peace up in my seventies
    Ain't worried 'bout ya threatening me, I'm just being honest
    I ain't buying fear just because it's all you got left
    We just want to make love 'til we wake up
    I believe whoever made us envisioned greatness
    And you know they want to paint us with the same brush
    Wanna inter-chain us 'til we fill our grave up
    Alright, okay, but when it's all said and it's all done
    And I look back at the trophies I've won, I will only count one
    I'm using my heart for, what hearts are for
    They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
    I thank God for healing
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    Thank God for listening
    Listen, you've been trying to build me up my whole life
    I thank God for building
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
    I thank God I'm living, and I know who I am
    I know whose I am
    On your wings I fly
    And your shoes I stand
    I'm animated by love, I don't move by chance
    Any stage I touch and any place I stand
    There y'all land, living in the world as it is
    Cracked vessel, I am
    No more and no less than a man
    Any possessions that I have are just in my hand
    I'm balancing the best that I can
    I'm not making no claims but
    I'm using my heart for, what hearts are for
    All the beauty in this whole life, uh
    I thank God for healing
    And You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light, light
    I thank God for listening
    Listen, you've been trying to build me up my whole life
    I thank God for building
    You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light, light
    I thank God I'm living
    Just reflecting all the beauty in this whole life, whole life...

I feel like sometimes I see it the same but get stuck somewhere along the way trying to make it to my light... At least to feel it and bask in bask in it. Idk if you'll ever see this but big homie hopefully in life ill be blessed to gain knowledge from a real one like you. Regardless if you ever do see this tho i just had to let those thoughts out man. Your one of the best of all time to me and more people should listen to you for so many reasons. Never stop ... Unless your light leads you else where. Much love man

      If the "positivity" wasn't wrapped in all the metaphysical superstition it would be a lot easier to see it as positive. At this point in human history there are no positive aspects to clinging to yesterday's bad ideas. Even if it somehow manages to put you on the right path it's still not the right path.

      Where have all the moderate Muslims gone? Muhammad Ali was just as good a man as this Brother Ali, but that vain of Muslim is going out of the mainstream in the middle east today - it's sad. Iran used to be friends of the USA, now they want to kill us.
      If you take the Indonesian vain of Islam, I think it's way better than that of any middle eastern country's version of the faith.
