common – invocation (live at the north sea jazz festival, 2005) lyrics

hold on, hold on, rash
we tryna teach them how to rock with hip-hop
i understand this is the jazz festival, but come on, man
this is not hop-hop
hold on, there’s this part on this, it’s gon’ come, bruh
we gon’ get ’em rockin’ with this, check it out

yeah, yo, take that b-tch back, dummy
take it back like this, come on, we go…

envisioning the hereafter, listening to steve wonder
on a quest for love like the karriem drummer, uh
ah, i strike like lightning and don’t need thunder
inhale imagination and breathe wonder
your lady, used to run up in her and g weed from her
dummy just summer, yo, yo
going forward seems like retreat
i rewrite rhyme after rhyme and throw away beats
growing into my britches, outgrowing the streets
a thin line between war and peace, wh-r-s and jeeps
ignore mcs like beeps, scribbling freedom on pages
third eye is like pink eye, seen and contagious
redeeming the ancients with ageless rhyme jargon
feel mexican, hip-hop is my garden
don’t give a f-ck where you charting, certain sh-t i can’t honor
it ain’t that you selling, it’s your karma
rappers i monitor like a chaperone, you large but haven’t grown
poetically perform live-bys, another rapper gone
the stage becomes a catacomb, i rap like a mummy
not for money, coulda 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
hollering at the brothers, you gon’ be a thug or a man?
flip drugs and get land
i can see my man was tired as he described how the bucks h-t him
and said slugs was still stuck in him, when it rained, it f-cked with him
this bucket interrupt wisdom and asked when my alb-m was coming
it’s here, it’s here, it’s here, it’s here…
