[scratched hook]
“still getting mine, in the 1 9 9 9”

[intro: talib kweli]
yo, just relax, take it easy, slow down
i had this—i had this friend of mine
who, just, you know, he was moving too fast, you know what i’m sayin’?
i told him to slow down, he said the sun don’t chill
i said, i said still, i said still, you gotta
just appreciate life, sit back, don’t let it fly right past you
no matter what go on i’m still gettin’ mine
no matter the year, no matter the place, no matter the time

[verse 1: common]
check it
it’s like i’m fighting for freedom, writing for freedom
these record company n_ggas i don’t like when i see ’em
my ancestors, when i’m writing i see ’em and talk with ’em
hoping in the promise land i can walk with ’em
sh_ttеd on so many rappers it’s like i’m in the stall with ‘еm
molest concepts, stalk rhythms, paid dues, bought wisdom
as legends fall my godmother answer heaven’s call
preachers’ daughters get f_cked in the reverend’s hall
mc’s reckless eyeball, why y’all wanna go and do that?
must’ve thought i was solo, the name just ain’t the u_ac
no mo’, still together
like in the ghetto photo with one n_gga in the chair
holding liquor in despair, gang signs in the air
i shine in sp_ces where time is just a glare
hold the mic like a memory
n_ggas say i’m nice with metaphors but these are similes
street ministry, my poetry’s a penitentiary, track is visitation
sentences is life, i’m like chief up in this demonstration
still…
[scratched hook]

[verse 2: sadat x]
you squirm with discomfort, wiggle and cough
six days of madness and you might throw me off
on this great ball of stress that they call the earth
i’mma show y’all in rhyme just how much sh_t i been through
and all the places i went to, always played the low
it’s like a competition, this mission here i’m telling you
slip up and rhyme_ass n_ggas here is felling you
crash courses, slow down you can’t learn that quick
cause i’m the dead eye, with the red eye, from chi to l_i
i thought y’all knew, every year i grew, i’m still growing
and in a year or two i hope my girl’ll be showing
a male seed, praise god i name him moses
i lead people i want him to, that’s why i chose this
now is the glass half_full or half_empty
common, why they tempt me
the king of the simply, bore in mic
i always stay on top cause i give n_ggas what they like
i know y’all hate that why i feel i owe y’all everyday
if y’all hear it a thousand times, it’s gon’ be the same way
the ‘dat_father, go farther, why bother
now i’m a peaceful man, i don’t want no stress
you know i’m still…
[scratched hook]

[verse 3: common]
yo yo, some get range rovers, some religion change_over
angel on my main shoulder telling me remain sober
token n_gga, game’s over ain’t no payola in freestyle
in battles, i’m warring like a g_child
searching for the child in me, this style in me
this release is like the piece that’s now in me
they tried to ‘sassinate me god, like martin on the balcony
lyrically i put a hit on ’em, cause i’m the style “nitti”
catch a fl!ck at the liquid kitty
trying to get a chick to kick it with me till the tilt
told her my chamber’s like wilt
built with her for a sec, let her know i had respect
less than a hour she was giving me neck, yo i’m still getting mine
