That Common It's Your World song still has me :wow:

[HendriX]

First time hearing this was a thing of beauty brehs..he snapped on this shyt!!

Went to school in Baton Rouge for a couple of years
My college career got downed with a couple of beers
Came back home, now I gotta pay back loans
Same nikka, same block, same shyt they own
Only thing different, quicker, they click that chrome
In my defense, yo I had to hit that zone
Man to man, I'm good workin with my hands
My generation never understood workin for the man
And, of bein broke I ain't a fan
Now I stand in the same spot, as my old man
My life I planned not to be on this corner
I still wanna see California
But this is my world

 

[Pack2]

Com def kills this and that Dilla beat....

 

[spliz]

Fav song on the album..definition of beautiful music...

Took me long as hell for me to catch the bolded


I think the second verse is one of the best verses ever

Copped the album when it dropped, one of the dopest songs I've heard. The lyrics and beat are just perfect. Props to you for uppin some real shyt for discussion. No hate, but I'm tired of seeing The Booth filled with wack threads on gbe/keef or gossip nonsense.
