Invocation Lyrics - One Day It'll All Make Sense - Common

(Common) 

Envisioning the hereafter, listenin to Steve Wonder 

On a Quest for Love like the Proceed drummer 

I strike like lightning and don't need thunder 

Inhale imagination and breathe wonder 

That's your lady, I used to run up in her and G weed from her 

It's a cold world and niggaz need summer 

At times my going forward seems like retreat 

As I rewrite rhyme after rhyme and throw away beats 

Growing into my britches, outgrowing the streets 

There's a thin line between war and peace, whores and jeeps 

Ignore MCs like beeps, scribblin freedom on pages 

My third eye is like pink eye, seemin contagious 

Redeemin the ancients with ace this rhyme jargon 

I feel Mexican, hip hop is my garden 

Don't give a fuck where you chartin, certain shit I can't honor 

It ain't that you sellin, it's your karma 

Rappers I monitor like a chaperone, you large and haven't grown 

Poetically perform fly-bys, another rapper gone 

The stage becomes a catacomb, I rap like a mummy 

Not for the money, I could have sampled Diana Ross a long time ago 

My mind of flow is like motor key 20 

Youngblood said he had dimes, I prayed that he see twenty 

Hollerin at the brothers, either you gon be a thug or a man 

Flip drugs and get land, I can see my man Rashad 

As he described how the bucks hit him 

And said slugs was still stuck in him, when it rained, it fucked wit him 

This bucket interrupt wisdom and asked when my album was comin 

I said it's here 

It's here(echoed)
