Lyrics
0:00Be - Common (凡夫俗子)
1:05Yes
1:11I want to be as free as the spirits of those who left
1:14I'm talking Malcom Coltrane my man Yusef
1:16Through death through conception
1:18New breath and resurrection
1:20For moms new steps in her direction
1:21In the right way
1:22Told inside is where the fight lay
1:24And everything a ni**a do may not be what he might say
1:27Chicago nights stay stay on the mind
1:29But I write many lives and lay on these lines
1:32Wave the signs of the times
1:33Many say the grind's on the mind
1:35Shorties blunted eyed and everyone wonderin' where I'm
1:37Bush pushing lies killers immortalized
1:39We got arms but won't reach for the skies
1:42Waiting for the Lord to rise
1:43I look into my daughter's eyes
1:45And realize that I'm a learn through her
1:47The Messiah might even return through her
1:49If I'ma do it I gotta change the world through her
1:52Furs and a Benz gramps wantin 'em
1:54Demons and old friends pops they hauntin' him
1:57The chosen one from the land of the frozen sun
1:59When drunk nights get remembered more than sober ones
2:02Walk like warriors we were never told to run
2:05Explored the world to return to where my soul begun
2:07Never looking back or too far in front of me
2:10The present is a gift
2:11The last word be
2:13Be
