[00:00.485] Tonight's musical guest
[00:02.680] Two of Chicago's Finest emcees!
[00:05.217] Give it up for Common and Kanye West!
[00:10.913] \"It's Common Sense!\"

[00:14.847] It's Common Sense! With Kanye West!
[00:17.147] On the Dave Chappelle Show!
[00:18.459] Everybody gotta eat right?
[00:20.447] It's the food baby!
[00:22.110] I walked in the crib, got two kids
[00:24.398] And my baby mama late (uh oh! uh oh! uh oh!)
[00:27.555] So I had to did, what I had to did
[00:29.950] Cause I had to get (duh-ough! duh-ough! duh-ough!)
[00:32.946] I'm up all night, getting my money right
[00:35.318] Until the blue and white (po po! po po! po po!)
[00:38.147] Now the money coming slow, but a least a ***** know
[00:40.777] Slow motion better than (no-oh! no-oh! no-oh!)
[00:44.078] You love to hear the story, again and again
[00:46.984] About these young brothers, from the City of Wind
[00:49.674] Like juice and gin, in the city we blend
[00:52.328] Amongst the hustle, ******* and skin, fifties and rims
[00:55.444] Y'all know the Sprewells and trucks that's detailed
[00:58.269] Heartless females that wanna ride in em
[01:00.688] Felt the southside venom in raw hides and denim
[01:03.378] Pimp minds collide wit em, a system that tries victims
[01:06.206] We living in, my man in the fast lane pivoting
[01:09.136] On the block white is selling like Eminem
[01:11.892] On the block it \"Jump Off\" like Kim and them
[01:14.376] On the block it's hot, you can feel it, in your skin and then
[01:17.236] Shorties get the game but no instructions to assembling
[01:20.081] Eyes bright, it seems like the fight is dimming them
[01:22.711] Call my man cuzo, like I'm kin to him
[01:24.877] He trying to stay straight, the streets is bending him
[01:27.297] I walked in the crib, got two kids
[01:29.661] And my baby mama late (uh oh! uh oh! uh oh!)
[01:32.750] So I had to did, what I had to did
[01:35.215] Cause I had to get (duh-ough! duh-ough! duh-ough!)
[01:38.013] I'm up all night, getting my money right
[01:40.590] Until the blue and white (po po! po po! po po!)
[01:43.252] Now the money coming slow, but a least a ***** know
[01:45.946] Slow motion better than (no-oh! no-oh! no-oh!)
[01:49.000] It's all good in the hood, like raps and gems
[01:51.613] Throwbacks and Timbs, blacks and rims
[01:55.137] Whether on ball courts, attires of all sorts
[01:57.772] We never fall short, wit us it's Our Force like And 1's
[02:01.581] Some waves, some air guns, the days of the fair one is over for
[02:05.729] Cats is colder than four below, wit self I go toe to toe
[02:08.643] Wondering if it's for the art or for the doe
[02:11.372] Though I know to grow a - gotta learn to let go
[02:14.270] Though I know the doe I got to bring back to the ghetto
[02:16.967] Arrows on Terot cards pointing to the grind
[02:19.541] Po' livin in more prisons, pointing to my mind, shine the light up
[02:23.062] Clench my fists tight, holding the right up
[02:25.038] Freedom fight in dark gear for the years to get brighter
[02:27.692] Situations, and jobs get tighter
[02:30.319] My man trying to get his weight and height up, c'mon!
[02:32.846] I walked in the crib, got two kids
[02:34.957] And my baby mama late (uh oh! uh oh! uh oh!)
[02:38.161] So I had to did, what I had to did
[02:40.565] Cause I had to get (duh-ough! duh-ough! duh-ough!)
[02:43.838] I'm up all night, getting my money right
[02:45.882] Until the blue and white (po po! po po! po po!)
[02:48.463] Now the money coming slow, but a least a ***** know
[02:51.228] Slow motion better than (no-oh! no-oh! no-oh!)
[02:54.771] I - I know I could make it right
[02:58.514] If I could just swallow my pride
[03:01.476] But I can't run away or put my gun away
[03:04.424] You can't front on me
[03:05.809] I - no I can't let it ride
[03:09.598] No no not tonight
[03:12.354] No I can't run away or put my gun away
[03:15.303] You can't front on me
