Common - One Four Love Pt. 1 lyrics

rate me

(feat. Kool G. Rap, Mos Def, Pharoahe Monch)

[Talib Kweli]

Yo you sent out the signal right?

And this is what happened

The voice of Hip Hop got heard

Never comprimised this is how we put it down c'mon

[Kool G Rap]

Throughout my thuglife I've seen the ???

Like ??? fight over the role of dice

Flashing whole lights when killas on a hiest

So contight, get poltergiest over the bowl of Christ

Who pulled the slice from cats aiming gats who showed the hiest

Told you right she be the one that come and hold your mic

Then aim it at the whole vice squad just like ???

Rollin like every prototype was dolomight

One man recall his ice inside his gun hand he holds for life

[Rah Digga]

This for the ones with holes in they graves

Waitin for they piece when the law misbehave

I say we off ??? watch 'em walk the beat

Like you can't cross streets make them all retreat

(now) Judges and the jury be a little to appointed

Making us defendants when we supossed to be the plantiffs

Laugh now cause soon the thrill stops

Heads get it on and start to kill cops

[Sporty Theivz]

I'm sober but the pull me over

What i do yo? (what we do yo?)

Poe-poe go i'm drivin to slow (cool yo)

I torin' them explorin them (damn)

For them that's why i'm ignoring them (uh-oh)

Bring like king skip

Before they bring this to some Rodeny King shit

Forget them fools

Now make no sudden moves

They reachin for they tools (let's move)

You buggin dude

Kirk you ran the stop, word them pigs frontin

Yo tell like you tell 'em cousin we ain't did nothin

All they see is three blacks in a jeep with seats back

Lookin for ??? packs how the blood dog can eat that

They thirstin for a reason to blast you can't beat that

Gats and a badge to match you can beat that so bounce 'em

[Mos Def]

My people unite and let's all get down

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

Do it right ya'll, keep it tight ya'll, do it right ya'll, just do it

[Shabaam Sahdeeq]

Blood on they hands, blood on my mans

Destroying the fam

More souljers die, another mother cries

Anthony Buyers, ??? ???, Diallo

Let it keep happenin and theirs more to follow

It's even deeper then that penal shot in the back

Forever we fight and cus but the world still adjust

So many bullets just to stop one man

Is that the plan,

To leave us all dead in the street

[Common]

I'm an opponent of violence

To many of my guys have to condome it in silence

Law takes lives and can only do violence

And with night sticks i write quick

Hopin that

[Talib Kweli and Common]

I might hit somebody in the heart

[Talib Kweli]

Like an arrow with her eyes on a sparrow

Yo i feel my peoples pain all in my bone marrow

[Common]

I'm tellin Pharoahe to let my folks go

Ma's been singin to law like they background vocals

[Talib Kweli]

Local, state, federal cops have been payed properly

To protect the property

How can i just stand by and watch a man die for nothin and not react

The way we spit on this track is how we bustin back

[Common]

Yo i pimp slap 5-0

Get behind them and make the marks drive slow

[Talib Kweli]

Yo, you wanna know how to improve on the quality life?

Try respectin it step into my zone and maifest a check in it

[Pharoahe Monch]

Cops they transport me from Long island to Medina

with they fucked up demeanor

Dreamin of stickin it to me like Abner Louima

Pharoahe slash El-Hajj Malik Shabazz

with plans of retaliations of they coward ass

God please allow me to preach for 'em

A voiceless man through a spirit i speek for him

Step to city hall if a dove flew for Diallo

with a vision of cops inside the Public Enemy logo

[Posdnous]

All that scheming and plotting

The young absorb like cotton does

Ecspeacially in my city where the boys steady rockin in

You would thought 5-0 would cut it all short

But they play the biggest part in the art of living arms

In our land cops guns clap more then hands

As if we don't deserve what they hear to preserve

We just tryin to do it right in these worlds that we rappin in

While they trying to fill us all up with more lead then zepilin

[Everyone Lead by Mos Def]

My people unite and let's all get down

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

My people unite and let's all get down

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

My people unite and let's all get down

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight

My people unite, hop up and do it right

We gotta have what? love peace and understandin

One god, One love, One light

One aim, One voice, One fight
