Hilltop Hoods Lyrics for Song: Common Streets
 Lyrics for Album: Matter Of Time [1999]
 
 
 
 38252>It's all the same,
 
 Regardless of your record and your name
 
 Rappers walking in the rain,
 
 tryna state there claim
 
 I can take the weight they just....
 
 Take the backpain
 
 There's much to gained with the money and fame
 
 (It's like that)
 
 I feel the power when i hear it in the streets
 
 (It's like that)
 
 It used to be about the lyrics and beats
 
 (Behind that)
 
 From tomorrow until comercialism
 
 And now it's built as a prison
 
 For us to walk common streets
 
 
 
 Now if flesh is weak
 
 My passion is my shield
 
 And my strength is my speech
 
 In which i'll make men yeild
 
 Cuz in the field of expertize
 
 Man you rappers flex with ease
 
 Using hip-hop as gimmicks in which to gain sex with these...
 
 
 
 With a joint or a bottle...
 
 And a picturing posing crew
 
 The only thing i ever learned is
 
 "I can only trust a chosen few"
 
 I got respect for my crew
 
 And love for my home
 
 Never claimed ??? throne from the use of microphone
 
 
 
 (Just let me rideeee)
 
 Or all you critics claiming minor skies
 
 "Better trade in ya faget"
 
 As you look into my eyes
 
 And my sumizeee'll be the day that hip-hop dies
 
 Or at least until the day the mass of boys ????
 
 
 
 With every ?? on your faith
 
 Companies supporting any and every
 
 Breathe or laugh i take
 
 Makes me gag in nauzia
 
 Its jsut the asthma....
 
 It's chokin' me, vocally
 
 Provokin' me to live with frustation with words but locally
 
 Cuz globally im fucked, if you ever notice me
 
 So I cling to what I got and rock the spot with chromozee...
 
 Cuz sometimes...
 
 The people just don't wanna let go
 
 Now put that mic down before you get crushed like Thredbo
 
 
 
 But hold it now....
 
 Who said were walking common streets?
 
 You jsut keep rollin' them beats hip-hop cost all a ??
 
 Some lost there creativy and our sense of ?? humble,
 
 Ali threw in the gloves so now im rumblin' in the jungle
 
 
 
 Don't you worry cuz them punks will fall off figures
 
 Times i wrote these shackle (dadadada)
 
 You lost that love i feel ??????, and crackles
 
 And only time he's able to heal the wounds
 
 That was open ??? truth ???? community you food basket
 
 Hipicrits, contradicting shit, every bit of it
 
 I've heard more to save the gas ?????? illiterate
 
 I jsut hung my head in my hands and kept, workin' on the beats
 
 But now were workin for the lands, maybe one day common streets
 
 
 
 It's all the same,
 
 Regardless of your record and your name
 
 Rappers walking in the rain,
 
 Tryna state there claim
 
 I can take the weight they just....
 
 Hate the backpain
 
 There's much to gained with the money and fame
 
 (It's like that)
 
 I feel the power when i hear it in the streets
 
 (It's like that)
 
 It used to be about the lyrics and beats
 
 (Behind that)
 
 From tomorrow until comercialism
 
 And now this spirits a prison
 
 For us to walk common streets
 
 
 
 It's all the same
 
 Common streets
 
 Can you feel it?
 
 Can you feel the vibe?
 
 Seem's im in a dream as im walk through the southside
 
 Can you feel it?
 
 Can you feel the vibe?
 
 Cuz it looks like we leavin' to the people walkin' by
 
 Can you feel it?
 
 Can you feel the vibe?
 
 Cuz it looks like we leavin' to the people walkin' by
