So Sweet

How can I say this? Fuck it - I'm the Greatest.
I am the A-list for all these great debaters.
A lot a y'all nah nah, forgot na, who I am.
The '87 nigga used to rah rah in the jam.
-Aw Yeah. We put them things in the air.
When I drop a single, it's really like a pair
of Air -Jordan's, important to the culture.
If you aint true to it - callate la boca.
Get my drink on like a coaster,
Post up on the wall that Mike used to live off
Hip Hop master, Clinton-I'mma get my shit off.
Rollin' in a Maserati Gran with the lid off.
I b'dall like a mobster -
Live nigga this is my encore, encore ,encore...

[Intro]
You know they be asking 'bout Common, where he at?

I rhyme for the commoners
My name's synonymous with prominence
I'm to hip hop what Obama is to politics
Common is...

Yeah, man, y'all niggas man, you soft mutha
Yeah my man, muthafucker
Then come around my crib
You know where I'm from
Some hoes ass niggas
Singing all around here man, la la la
You aint no muthafuckin' Frank Sinatra
Uh, lil bitch
Yeah, this the raw right here
This the raw right here nigga
Sweet muthafucka
Sweet ass bitch muthafucka

[Common - Verse 2]
Wa da da da, ba dada dada day
The C-O double-M O-N, I'm not playin'
Da da man at work, I made my own lane
I'm the franchise so I rock my own chain
No I. said give 'em that 80s cocaine
Somethin' raw, somethin' pure so I stayed in that vein
The hero that he know, that he cold
like winters below in the Geo, wipe ya feet off in the Regal
I'm king, observe the throne and the dream
I have it, supreme like mathematics
Yeah, I rep the fresh air for you asthmatic rap addicts
Pro black magic, this is semi-automatic
Rap we won't jam in traffic
The game need direction, I'm here to map it
Uh, some people say that they be missing creativity
But when it come to hip hop, it begins and ends with me
Sweet

[Outro]
You know-You know that, you should know where I come from
You should know who I am nigga
Where did you go...You should never wanna go against me
You know man, you too soft for that man
I be seeing you man, I see it in your eyes man
You aint the type of nigga that can go against me
You get in my presence you gon' feel like a little hoe
You aint a man yet nigga, you tryna be somebody else
Man, be yourself man, you come around my crib, you get your shit took
Huh, wherever you go, you probably be overseas in Europe and get yo shit took
You's a hoe, you know you sweet
Aint nothing you can do man, people see that man
Broads be seeing you sweet
Done wit' you muh, it's over for you
It's over for you. It's over, sweet muthafucka
