Check it out
Good morning... be at calm iand'm back
Huh! itand's me again
Is it me youand're looking for? (yup)
For the perfect beat sweetly oblique
Iand'm fresh i come clean but i canand't whistle
*attempt at whistling* psss iand'm only buggin
While no dug in the crates i dug in my nose
And picked a rhyme any rhyme i donand't have any time
To waste, iand'm hip... donand't even trip
To an easy travel agent now we fly for free
I can be fly for free, you want some flyer to read
Then buy from me
I got the flame like u-i-c but i be, u-a-c
Some of the realest illest chillest cats you may see
In your life if you get one
Rappers are like jobs to me (why?) because they get done
Here it comes iand'm as able as cain to get raw
Thatand's why the djand's mix me, iand'm gonna bust dickses
Not da bomb so save all your threats
Iand'm good to go and also iand'm rets
Rhymes i wrecks affects the roughnecks
Down to the preps in the polos, the studs with pros
Hoes who wheeze, the bald-headed to the dreaded
To folks with butters, high rollers and rollers
Players with plat studs with stocking caps i be rocking raps
Til i collapse
Niggaz play my tape about as much as they do craps
Iand'm on point, i celo, i see high
Hi c, iand'm free at last
Iand'ma free man, free as the world be
And like an early bird, iand'm special
But you ainand't that special, as that investor
So to myself i say congratulations
Iand'm glad you had the patience, you better have the patience
Cause thisisme
andquot;i love the way i am and canand't nobody out here change meandquot; --andgt; krs-one
Common!
(repeat 3x)
Whassup scony rony iand'm that boney homey
From stoney (common) you know me!
Off the gp niggaz see me on the tv
Talkin take it ez, and they was like andquot;he ainand't hardcore!andquot;
But hardcore is far more than bats and gats
It stems back to the roots of being true
Itand's gonna get me me, you just get you you
What i look like, talkin about some shit i ainand't do?
I ainand't shoot nobody i ainand't shank nobody
I ainand't kill nobody, it wasnand't us it was them!
The warriors, iand'm a warrior and still donand't have to show no gun
It takes one to know one, and no one can tell me
How to be, cause iand'ma be me, aight?
Cause iand'm a man, now check it
andquot;i love the way i am and canand't nobody out here change meandquot; --andgt; krs-one
Common!
(repeat 3x)
*singing* sometimes, sometimes, i get a good feeling!
When iand'm chillin at the flat, lookin at the wall
Wondering can i come off of it, iand'm off a bit
On the mic i be talkin shit
But some say my talk donand't make no sense
Iand'm tryin to make the dollars, my momma told me
To go to school and be a scholar, but school ainand't for me
So donand't even go there, iand'm comin out of nowhere, to go where
Probably in about seven years, i wonand't have no hair
But not only am i the hair club president, iand'm also a client
I come off like a toupee, i still have to pay 2pc dark
A raider that never lost the ark/arc, on the shot
But now when i shoot rock, i be all out of breath
My boy adefo wanted to be a chef
But he went down south, and fell in love call me love
Cause love is gonna getcha iand'ma getcha
Iand'm like b.j. my arm is strong and i stretch ya
Styles from east to west, all across the country
Iand'm like that big fat one niggaz catch when bumpin
I probably would get bumped more if i was a gangster
But i am a gangsta, call me the gangsta of love!!!
I love good music, i love my momma
I love myself, i love you, and you love me
And thisis -- iand'm out
(krs sample plays in background)
Yo i wanna say peace to my moms, my grandmomma
Lil chandra, and john, yo rest in peace to my aunt stella
My sides moms, ronand's moms, dawnand's moms, coreyand's moms
Who are you? these people be themselves yand'all, peace em out
Common! (4x)
