    Check this out
    One time, steps a man
    Common Sense and the Unamerican Caravan
    The true b-boys, dem dere and we in here
    Yeah, ya know, from the Southside of Chicago
    and we don't front
    Who me? I am Twilite Tone
    Babylon dread, Bumstead, and we come like DIS

    [Common]
    This the start of somethin big
    Methink I knows ya gonna dig it
    It's time to plant the seed
    Hip-Hop's the tree and I'ma fig it
    Figure it out, the mic, I'm rippin it like a ligament
    Gimme a light a Bud Light, and shit'll get lit just like a cigarette
    I'm a b-boy so don't test me, many rappers don't impress me
    You try steppin into my city I'll, Snipe em like Wesley
    So you best be on your way, I'm doper than Marion Berry, hey
    Wake up everyday and make-up rhymes but I'm not Mary Kay
    Some say I'm dope as fuck, some label my rhymes incest
    My flex is kinda mean yo, so hey kid, CATCH
    These nuggets, these nuggets, these nugget ugget uggets
    with some peas and a hole in the bucket (cool, cool)
    Dear Liza, Minelli, I jam like jelly and I got
    helly what, helly what, HELLY RHYMES
    I can remember times when for a 40 I had to beg for bucks
    Nobody really gave a, so I had to beg for fucks
    Now what do niggaz do when they got not food
    Skibbidy skap and busta bust a rap
    So I pick up the pen and then begin the thoughts to get to pumpin
    Hopin like all the people let me talk, let me say somethin
    Cause nothin for nothin leaves nothin, I got nuthin to lose
    I put, nuttin in my notes, I'm not your host when I got nuttin to use
    Dues gettin credited, now I debit my bank account
    Not on a blind date, could I see me taken out
    by some glutteus, glutteus, maximus, maximus
    I'm spas-ta-gis-a-mister-gis a mister-gis-ta-spas-ta-gis
    Spectacular, the papes I Count like Dracula
    You can't cut the rug, because you suck, MC Vacumn Up
    Rappers I skip on like Walter Payton
    Their ain't no way or half-step, and flex a rhyme like a bicep
    Some steps with concepts, but umm, WHO cares
    Not even the damn People Under the Stairs

    [Twilite Tone]
    Interruption, interruption
    True b-boys runnin shit
    Unamerican Caravan, beatin you down
    Den dere's de man who don't stop
    Yo Com, come back with some Sense, UHH

    [Common]
    Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, here I come, here I come (what?)
    A-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, here I come, here I come (yeah!)
    I'm comin around the mountain high as lower than a valley
    I'm the cat, from the alley, from the back, I'ma rally
    and tally up points, rollin joints, risin to the tops
    Somewhat of a playwright, cause like a stage I got props
    My crew's a strange brew, a drink a day'll keep the stink away
    We been through AA, but hey, what can I say?
    Say say say, what you want, but you'll pay the con-se-quences
    Cause Mister Common Sense is (yeah)
    not gonna take it, so leave you better believe it
    Even if your name ain't Ripley, cause Ripley don't know diddley
    Hit me one time, two times, for the U-AYYY-C
    Heyyyyyy, but anyway
    I hit a skid, and I peel out like MC Eiht, damn I kill it
    Earn my money the old fashioned way - I steal it
    Stop thief in the temple, I hit em with a blow
    Somebody done stole my beeper but I'ma steal the show
    I'm throwin a Heidi Hoe into a bro and tellin her
    go for what you know bruh, the people before me go under
    Yo we gotta gotta get we gotta get we gotta get
    Gotta get, gotta gotta gotta get get over
    Somewhere over the rainbow, I'm still the same old same old
    Ringin around the collar, borrowin a dollar, check my balls
    Dirty drawers, see the kitty suckin titties
    Video watchin lush from the city
    I'm the extra-terrestrial rappers go home cause they have to
    Them marks be callin Ork, come in Ork, Nanu Nanu
    The perfect stranger, comin in to a, fuck a new land
    Cause Jeffrey where Osborne, and see I'm only human
    Doin anything to make a buck, what the fuck I gotta
    do what I gotta go (*echoes*)
