Forever Begins
(专辑: Finding Forever - 2007)
[1st Verse] Victory won, in a
world of hennessy and guns Too young for the
marches but I
remember these drums The
stark reality of wars and battles, we Fought for ours, parted in ghetto tragedy I
talk to my aunt named Mattie Lee And recognized importance of family Hand me a
joint, good music, and room to breathe Those that doubt Com' will soon believe Can't judge the
weave, my lady had one I'm more like a
fool for soul and passion The
price of gas rises And street life is pumping fast lives, and I
watched Crash and realized that we're all survivors No religion or race could ever describe us My guys do dirt, move dirt, but never really talk about it Forever begins, jus' because I
thought about it [Chorus] Living Once Again We... Living Then you're gone [x4] [2nd Verse] Ashes and snow falls, I
wonder when the
roll call for heaven gon' come Forever gon' come It's a
cold world and I
can never go numb Look fear in the
eyes, say I'm never gon' run Sooner than later, I
know the
cheddar gon' come For now I
write the
world letters to better the
young On tree by jury, together we hung Now we let our chains hang, and gang bang to maintain Afghanistan going through the
same thing It trickles down, at each other we aim pain I
shoot for stars, peace and exclusive cars Through the
wire I
learned to earn hard Watched gangstas turn God in the
midst of War No matter how much I
elevate, I
kiss the
floor It was in the
wind when she said Dilla was gone That's when I
knew we lived forever through song [Chorus x2] [Common's Father] Origin is forever Well, well well, We are back in the
studio again Look at that Hey, I
don't need no cue cards They got the
engineers holding up cue cards What that say Oh they say; "just talk, don't sing" Son, I
bet you feel like you and I've been here Forever 30 years old red eyes, Beholding red eyes I
see my world's tears Yeah, origin is forever Every peak will have 2
values Hopeful eyes in the
comfort Of true protection and admiration of the
chime That's forever Forever is to strive A
place of endearment Forever, Forever is what I
leave My I-self contribution Damn, what I'm gon' leave? Ok... I
leave my one and only grain of spiritual sand To universal scales of humanity All humanity Forever is finding a
solution to a
solution Tsunamis, Hurricanes Following the
trails of the
African slave ships War, War, and more War Floods, Columbine, Global Warming, Earthquakes Another somebody's done me wrong, son Virginia Tech, there's not a
hole but to Heck We're still, did you place your one grain of spiritual sand forever? Confusion need a
solution Blend and stir, stir and blend the
part of humanity Sift the
ingredients of acknowledgment, apology, amendment, atone We gonna work with the
four A's here Forever part Common good is forever God's memory is forever....
