Common Dust Lyrics

    Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust (8x)

    Chorus: black thought (4x)

    It's common dust y'all, and you don't stop
    For you to trust y'all, with real hip-hop

    [black thought]
    Thought be the ? of the styles of speech
    A dusty head brother mighta saw the bleach
    Teach i aims not, just to talk my sense
    Damn i gives not, 'bout the consequence
    Funk the stylistics, and jazz the vibe
    Laughs at e-tudes cause i'm stayin alive
    Time i grips not, so it limps along
    Dust you, collect if you digs my song
    Paids and black braids what i aims to ease
    Connection l-7 throwin out the breeze
    Cool breeze to blow up cause i bust the shit
    I'm just a sun child rollin in a dustin ship
    It's like that y'all

    [kid crumbs]
    Thought's a black miss you wanna catch the crumbs
    When i hums a fat song, with derelicts and bums
    Smoke gems with the folk from the cellar when they come
    Mouth be like cotton, got sticks of gum
    Common spear-a-mint, it's like sense is dust
    Accumulation much cause naps i got nuff
    Funk feeds the dome see the trees they wanna rise
    Out sprouts the ?, free to vocalize
    Old school highs i got, for your eyes
    Circulize never even though we lock together
    Ask the set i'm clever cause i'm severed and i'm pooped
    But anyway the wind blows, the dust you gotta go

    Chorus

    [kid crumbs]
    It's like crumbs stay at a mic, comes to and from the ashes
    Pass the what kid? l-7, we massive
    Jazz the funk, slow-be-poke, baby she be glass
    Puff the stuff you have now i recline and make you laugh
    Roots can boost knot and off the docks i rocked your riches
    The edgar shit is locked, that's, if the force is with us
    Yeah, deeps pon the streets i reach, be the sound
    A pouch full of ouch, soon the freaks is freakin out, uhh
    Threes that make you shout, 'bout, ruckus on the corner
    Black, ?uest and rubber, we did it in the summer
    Now the po' folk is near, they say i'm not a square
    But when the circle's root, black see if i'll be there
    It's like that y'all

    [black thought]
    Dig it, cool for me i'm glad when i springs from pad
    To those with mad dust i be just a lad
    Rock me rocks not cause my thoughts is black
    Sports the a-di-das plus my proton pack
    Accumulatin dust as my trail mix crush
    Digs the naturale, baby flush the blush
    Yeah, when it roams, find your way back home
    And dig it with the kids with the dust-y dome
    Soon your zigs roam when you brooms the scene
    Dust you gots not, cause your rooms is clean
    Trust i knows much cause i blows the horn
    It's common dust y'all, you go on and on

    Chorus w/ variations to end
