| [00:01.71] |
Common |
| [00:01.92] |
Finding Forever |
| [00:02.76] |
Southside |
| [00:02.94] |
La, la, la, la, la - and e'rybody say |
| [00:06.48] |
La, la, la, la, la - I know you, I know you... |
| [00:11.52] |
I know you're thinking, thinking that it must be |
| [00:14.13] |
I'm a raw flow cause it never get rusty |
| [00:16.86] |
I aint gotta say it, man dawg trust me |
| [00:19.50] |
Bust somebody head, T.L.C. where was we? |
| [00:22.17] |
Still rock the prada 'fore that, rock the Starter |
| [00:25.47] |
Niggas out in Georgetown, and Magic way harder |
| [00:27.39] |
Thinking back to the projects, and they way they tore 'em all up |
| [00:30.33] |
Like when I do a project, and come back and tear the mall up |
| [00:32.67][Chorus] |
|
| [00:32.91] |
We coming from the.. |
| [00:33.30] |
South (side), South (side) |
| [00:33.81] |
South (side), South (side) |
| [00:37.23] |
South (side), South (side) |
| [00:37.89] |
South (side), Side of the Chi |
| [00:38.55] |
The broads, the cars, the half moon, the stars |
| [00:41.46] |
I'm like Jeff Fort the way I get behind bars |
| [00:44.25] |
Burn cd's with no regard for the stars |
| [00:46.83] |
Come to the grip with conflict, diamonds and the arts |
| [00:49.59] |
Back in '94 they call me Chi-town's Nas |
| [00:52.35] |
Now them niggas know I'm one of Chi-town's gods |
| [00:55.05] |
We even yo, you're still talking no cause |
| [00:57.81] |
A conscious bitch with mac like Steven Jobs |
| [01:04.11][Chorus] |
|
| [01:06.60] |
Your fly is open, McFly |
| [01:08.58] |
The crowd is open I think I know why |
| [01:11.37] |
I'm back from the future seen it with my own eyes |
| [01:14.13] |
And yep, I'm still the future of the Chi |
| [01:16.68] |
Back in college I had to get my back up off the futon |
| [01:19.71] |
I knew that I couldn't cop a coup with no coupons |
| [01:22.47] |
Look at that neutron on his green like two dimes |
| [01:25.17] |
People asking him, "Do you have any grey poupon?" |
| [01:27.42][Chorus] |
|
| [01:33.66] |
You in the building but the buildings falling |
| [01:36.06] |
You wouldn't be ballin' if your name is Baldwin |
| [01:38.82] |
My mind get flooded I think about New Orleans |
| [01:41.43] |
Back in school, y'all niggas you should call in August |
| [01:44.13] |
Summer sun it goes down but I'm still revolving |
| [01:46.83] |
Southside 'bout to walk it out, I still get crawling |
| [01:49.77] |
If rap was Harlem, I be James Baldwin |
| [01:52.44] |
With money in the bank like G. Rap, we're calling |
| [01:55.08][Chorus] |
|
| [02:00.69] |
With niggas masked up like Phantom of the Opera |
| [02:03.39] |
Dreaming of the day they push a phantom to the operas |
| [02:06.21] |
Can't wait till they say, "Yeah, he ran up at the Oscars." |
| [02:09.09] |
Poppa, I heard his life is like a movie |
| [02:11.37] |
Like when Em' played him and Mekhi played a rasta |
| [02:14.31] |
Mexican don't love it like it was for La Raza |
| [02:17.10] |
But this is for the mobsters, Holla |
| [02:19.11] |
We some true chi-town legends, accept no imposters |
| [02:22.08][Chorus] |
|
| [02:27.69] |
Uh, the un-American idol, tower like the Eiffel |
| [02:30.81] |
Lean wit it, rock wit it, back like the disciples |
| [02:33.51] |
Know when to use a bible, and when to use a rifle |
| [02:36.33] |
You rap like you should be on the back of a motorcycle |
| [02:38.82] |
Caught a case of robbery, and 'Beat It' like Michael |
| [02:41.55] |
Your career is a typo, mine was written like a haiku |
| [02:44.55] |
I write to 'Do the Right Thing' like Spike do |
| [02:47.16] |
Do crime fixed is crucial and trauma is psycho |
| [02:49.59][Chorus] |
|
| [02:49.83] |
La, la, la, la, la, la, la-la |
| [02:53.04] |
La, la, la, la, la, la |
| [02:55.65] |
La, la, la, la, la, la, la |
| [03:01.02] |
La, la, la, la, la, la, la |
| [03:16.50] |
We're coming from the...Hey! |
| [03:17.25] |
*scratches*.. spice it up (la, la , la..) |
| [03:20.01] |
Ya might have to spice it up |
| [03:22.14] |
Spice it up, spice it up, |
| [03:25.26] |
Take your life and... |
| [03:26.73] |
Yo, we're coming from the...Hey! |
| [03:38.40] |
We're coming from the...Hey! |
| [03:44.91] |
