[Twilite Tone] 

Check this out 

One time, steps a man 

Common Sense and the Unamerican Caravan 

The true b-boys, dem dere and we in here 

Yeah, ya know, from the Southside of Chicago 

and we don't front 

Who me? I am Twilite Tone 

Babylon dread, Bumstead, and we come like DIS 



[Common] 

This the start of somethin big 

Methink I knows ya gonna dig it 

It's time to plant the seed 

Hip-Hop's the tree and I'ma fig it 

Figure it out, the mic, I'm rippin it like a ligament 

Gimme a light a Bud Light, and shit'll get lit just like a cigarette 

I'm a b-boy so don't test me, many rappers don't impress me 

You try steppin into my city I'll, Snipe em like Wesley 

So you best be on your way, I'm doper than Marion Berry, hey 

Wake up everyday and make-up rhymes but I'm not Mary Kay 

Some say I'm dope as fuck, some label my rhymes incest 

My flex is kinda mean yo, so hey kid, CATCH 

These nuggets, these nuggets, these nugget ugget uggets 

with some peas and a hole in the bucket (cool, cool) 

Dear Liza, Minelli, I jam like jelly and I got 

helly what, helly what, HELLY RHYMES 

I can remember times when for a 40 I had to beg for bucks 

Nobody really gave a, so I had to beg for fucks 

Now what do niggaz do when they got not food 

Skibbidy skap and busta bust a rap 

So I pick up the pen and then begin the thoughts to get to pumpin 

Hopin like all the people let me talk, let me say somethin 

Cause nothin for nothin leaves nothin, I got nuthin to lose 

I put, nuttin in my notes, I'm not your host when I got nuttin to use 

Dues gettin credited, now I debit my bank account 

Not on a blind date, could I see me taken out 

by some glutteus, glutteus, maximus, maximus 

I'm spas-ta-gis-a-mister-gis a mister-gis-ta-spas-ta-gis 

Spectacular, the papes I Count like Dracula 

You can't cut the rug, because you suck, MC Vacumn Up 

Rappers I skip on like Walter Payton 

Their ain't no way or half-step, and flex a rhyme like a bicep 

Some steps with concepts, but umm, WHO cares 

Not even the damn People Under the Stairs 



[Twilite Tone] 

Interruption, interruption 

True b-boys runnin shit 

Unamerican Caravan, beatin you down 

Den dere's de man who don't stop 

Yo Com, come back with some Sense, UHH 



[Common] 

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, here I come, here I come (what?) 

A-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, here I come, here I come (yeah!) 

I'm comin around the mountain high as lower than a valley 

I'm the cat, from the alley, from the back, I'ma rally 

and tally up points, rollin joints, risin to the tops 

Somewhat of a playwright, cause like a stage I got props 

My crew's a strange brew, a drink a day'll keep the stink away 

We been through AA, but hey, what can I say? 

Say say say, what you want, but you'll pay the con-se-quences 

Cause Mister Common Sense is (yeah) 

not gonna take it, so leave you better believe it 

Even if your name ain't Ripley, cause Ripley don't know diddley 

Hit me one time, two times, for the U-AYYY-C 

Heyyyyyy, but anyway 

I hit a skid, and I peel out like MC Eiht, damn I kill it 

Earn my money the old fashioned way - I steal it 

Stop thief in the temple, I hit em with a blow 

Somebody done stole my beeper but I'ma steal the show 

I'm throwin a Heidi Hoe into a bro and tellin her 

go for what you know bruh, the people before me go under 

Yo we gotta gotta get we gotta get we gotta get 

Gotta get, gotta gotta gotta get get over 

Somewhere over the rainbow, I'm still the same old same old 

Ringin around the collar, borrowin a dollar, check my balls 

Dirty drawers, see the kitty suckin titties 

Video watchin lush from the city 

I'm the extra-terrestrial rappers go home cause they have to 

Them marks be callin Ork, come in Ork, Nanu Nanu 

The perfect stranger, comin in to a, fuck a new land 

Cause Jeffrey where Osborne, and see I'm only human 

Doin anything to make a buck, what the fuck I gotta 

do what I gotta go (*echoes*)
