lirik lagu home – common

intro:
a man who’s g-nius and freedoms and —
ability to communicate and —
to talk, and to touch chords and —
a man who has the ability and the audacity
of god to stand up, to stand up

verse 1:
heard the sound of the trumpets, the voice from the throne
seen the twenty-four elders, and i knew i was home
i was told to write songs for the people
take the original hebrews
on an exodus of black excellence
tell them to invest in us, and make [?] about each other
or how we sisters and brothers
cover the land in corners of poems and stone
go hard with it, let em know you god with it
even though i auth-r-d it, let no one margin it
and make it all about paper, or first weeks sales
though this is from heaven, giving verses from h-ll
those that fell off the path, bring them back to the m-ss
the staff can be your microphone
your name is common
you was born to fight the norm
take house n-gg-s outta darkness till they lights is on
imma put a hyphen on your name
rapper-actor-activist
you the one that can reach into the black abyss
[?] asterix, show em what a cl-ssic is
freedom riders need p-ssengers
and your lyrics use scriptures and p-ssages
to make them rise like lazarus
and resurrected again, they’ll put disrespect on your name and respect it again
every section you in, bless em and keep bussin’
if they don’t like it, shake the dust and say ‘f-ck em’
until you get home, i’m the one you trustin’
interlude
i’m happy to be in any place
where god’s name is remembered

hook (bilal)
soon i will be gone with the trouble of this world
trouble of this world, trouble of this world
soon i will be gone with the trouble of this world
going home to live
going home to live
going home to live

verse 2
go into the wilderness like mussa on a pilgrimage
streets are villages, speak with diligence
and authority to fake god of [?]
give them that [?] from the black odyssey
yo pardon me, you the god bodily
functioning on earth as a part of me
that’s why i gave you artistry
go into the hood with the shooters and the strippers
forget the new world order, the new jerusalem is with us
tell sisters they [?] and goddesses
if they got bottom, don’t get caught in a bottomless
pit, there’s a lot of us fit for the kingdom is near
you can tell by the wars and how the seasons appear
you’ll appear in circles in hollywood, i birthed you
and chicago, you know how to poly good
you’ll get oscars, emmys, and grammys
give those to your family, don’t get caught up in the vanity
or the world’s insanity

outro speech
to those of you who are unfamiliar with those words
they mean, in english, ‘peace, be unto you’
