Common & Pete Rock - We’re On Our Way
[Intro: Pete Rock]
Yeah
[Chorus: Common & ]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation ()
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
[Verse 1: Common & ]
The Lord spoke, I listened to the vision I was given
It's the second Common, I've risen with the wisdom of the elders
Food, clothing, shelter
Prosperity, health and joy, it's what I knelt for
I've been dope once I learned who I dealt for
Knowledge of self, I felt more ("Hey")
Hot blocks, you melt or cook
My neck of the woods always got crooks
Cracks and crevices, I learned what the 7 is
The God number
And we deliver evidence of things unseen
We come to run things
I keep good will and I stay hunting
I was on King Drive, I had one dream ()
My drive is like King for us to have something
Destiny called, I answer in one ring
Seen a Southside girl become queen ("Hey")
[Chorus: Common & ]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation ()
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize () ("Hey")
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
[Verse 2: Common & ]
The heavens open, we the outspoken
Provokin' togetherness for the broken
People in the ghetto, we should never settle
It's eye in eye, let's keep it on the sparrow
I walk through the Chi' like I was brother Harold ()
Washington, I got me tons of votes, this mayoral
Kisses for luck for Black businesses and such
On our Dame dollars, yeah, we gettin' bucks
Mills walkin' through is a key to the hood
I sit with Chairman Fred, yeah, he understood
A seat at the table, what it means when it's good
Street principles, stay on your deen for the hood
I seen cuzzo, he was on his hustle
On Halsted, findin' his piece in the puzzle
Universal law, get what you give to the day
Umi said shine your light, we on our way ("Hey")
[Chorus: Common & ]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation ()
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
[Verse 3: Common & ]
We've only just begun, I'm a son of the heavens ()
Magnificent, a Black man's presence
Supreme Mathematics, countin' my blessings
What would hip-hop be? I'm countin' my presence ("Hey")
Resilience in my resonance, the brilliance in my elegance
Developed with the elements and compounds to shape who we are now
Order steps, the ladder ain't as far now
We the sun, moon and star now, on the precipice
Touch the garments of modern Black Jesuits
Afro-futuristic, we breed the testaments
Like Robert Nesta said, this is an exodus of excellence
[Chorus: Common & ]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation ()
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
[Outro: Pete Rock & ]
("Hey") () ("Hey")
Yeah
Yeah
[Chorus: Common & ]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation ()
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun ()
We've only just begun, we've only just begun () ("Hey")
