Common - Play Dis (Remix) lyrics

INTRO: (Saukrates) [Common] Word up, Saukrates in the house [yeah, yeah] 'Bout to turn it all out again Y'all n***as check my sh** out, word up Check me out [check that sh** out] [Saukrates] Amazed dudes to wack crews Lay it down Kids could never walk a mile in my shoes Shorties clockin' me Always be coming in the two From the north I'm bringing you tracks and good news My debut was real to the blind industry minds Who never had the time Now kids press rewind to the top But legally I gotta show love Call me A, B and C, answers D All of the above I attack the microphone like Jack Ripper real for stacks Leaving kids no headroom like Max Try to react, but you were never clam And never could kick a verse When worse come to worse I'm better Shine like genuine rhine, and black patented leather On half naked honeys who forgot about the weather f** an exhibition, and warm up scrimmage Shoot more words that Macho Man spit gism in the village CHORUS: [Common Sense] (Saukrates) [Play dis], (play dis) [Play dis], (play dis) [Play dis y'all, play dis], (play dis) [Play dis], (play dis) [Play dis], (play dis) [Play dis y'all, play dis], (play dis) [Common Sense] Stimulated by a tree and drama I advanced on a branch of respect and honor A patient of the Ill state Sittin' in trauma, never been one to side with hama For Armageddon, I'm getting armed plus armor The comma of matter on the rise like a tip In the southside diner Your preference to the book that likes to pack humid To it I react, by staying strapped with the mack and courage Parallel to a carrousel of murders I prefer to make a life than take a life Stopped at a street called Wise and made a right Sort of how I play my broads, just how I play the mic First I cuff it, then finger f** it Check it something rugged, other n***as be reluctant To touch it after me Pa**ively they strike, never matching me Rapidly, don't placidly I fabricate the verbal tapestry Tap the keg of you conscious Navigate n***as like Farrhakan with a compa** CHORUS [Saukrates] Kids setting their watches 5 minutes fast to stay on top of time But I'm already 10 minutes away n***a, play what you want to play, he say she say But Saukrates got the bu*tas in T dot O dot today [Common] Slowly but surely I pour the lyric into the gla** of your mind My rhyming will be the diamond that will cut through Lines say but you to do, you don't know what to Got wisdom like a tooth Incidentally I get buck too Didn't get my jest, so I just had to do it My mic or your mic, come on no congruent Seen broads be brew to me, be jubilee On my neck be hot j**elry My old man be schooling me For sho' I rock good, cats claim this hood and that hood Black man, your hood is the universe On this Earth, you were first through the worse My crew could hearse Used to go up stairs and we went through the purse I don't curse around juniors Spread love like rumors n***as loved my tape, but how many were consumers? [Saukrates] Shout out to honeys working them hourgla** hips Stay soprano, reading surano Dramatic episodes, yo Common Let me play with n***as brains like clay kits When I rock stage hits Skip the rumors and lies So you're under the stairs When I drop my hip-hop, you'll be some Maytag repairmen And flip flop the fake, who thought the scored And half-a**ed n***as sending you back to drawing boards To deliver the real sh**, at least we'll spit on you mic I'm versatile like a plate of real grits CHORUS 2X [Common] talking behind chorus This is how we bust that sh** out Yeah, yeah Father time, check it out We the fathers, y'all know what time it is You better watch the clock, use your mind Check it out, yes two brothers need to rhyme [Common] Never eat swine, we don't want it on our pizza Just cheese, checkered MCs They better just freeze, n***as stop please What goes on? Check it out, they bumble like bees No I ain't a k**er I'm the n***a that don't drink Miller I like Heineken, it's sort of like my vitamin I gotta rhyme, because I got a big mouth Where I come from, what, what I side with the Southside n***as be outside with they hat co*ked I'm telling you, check it out I rock the black block I rock the black blocks all over Call over on some ill sh**, yeah My n***as Sauk come to do it Yo we got to get into it Check it out, this is how I blew it Right here, now yeah, yeah (Peace out, T dot, O dot) [It's that ol' adlib sh**] Music fade
