Common - Everything's So Grand Lyrics
Official
It's gon' be rainy days
When it's done, we gon' be good
Trust it's just a phase
When it's done, we gon' be good
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time, yeah, yeah (it's grand)
Fam is all good, pushing through the hood (is)
And it's (grand)
Drink a little wine, take a little time (is)
And it's (grand)
I can do a show, get the dough and then go (is)
And it's (grand)
Travel with my girl so we can see the world (is)
And it's (grand)
Marvellous deeds came up from the weeds
Uncle's eyes bleed, he told me to believe
Grew up around a lot of women, many did achieve
Some had cheap weaves, learn to deep breathe
In the comet of it all, determined not to fall
I spring through the mayhem when it snowed in April
They popped at blackheads like it was a facial, it's racial
Don't know where they tryna race to
What moms thought about pops, heard it in the hall
Sunshine I pack like Anderson, yeah, I heard it all
Before, it's a trip when you feel rich but you poor
And the only thing that got your back is the floor that you slept on
I been slept on, pillow talk riddle thoughts from the judgemental
But who could judge the mental when I'm in God's temple?
This is borrowed time, my Chicago mind I lend to
Those that been through similar things that I been through
My mental's monumental, who can knock it over?
Stayed in my prime like I rock the boulder
A buffalo soldier, my struggle knows culture
I been on the road to the richest man in Babylon
On the paper chase, I married the marathon
The magnificent things in life that it brings
The sun shines again, yeah, we reign supreme
It's gon' be rainy days
When it's done, we gon' be good
Trust it's just a phase
When it's done, we gon' be good
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time, yeah, yeah (it's grand)
Fam is all good, pushing through the hood (is)
And it's (grand)
Drink a little wine, take a little time (is)
And it's (grand)
I can do a show, get the dough and then go (is)
And it's (grand)
Travel with my girl so we can see the world (is)
And it's (grand)
God body and soul, Allah be end goal
From the concrete to La Vien Rose
I spit the naked truth while I be in clothes
Trap, I blow walls like Jericho's
And listen to the walls groove, Peter hooked the raw loops
Success when you smell it, you can't spell it when it's all you
I seen seven-figure deals fall through
Good men I can trust, it's a small few
When we hooped at Foster Park, it fostered heart
And community, that steward me through the foolery
Niggas drop gems and jewelry to tutor me
Life schoolin' me with foreign car language spoke fluently
Congruently the truancy of fathers
But we didn't bother, we the authors of our lifetime stories
I ask our Father to write rhymes for me
Yeah, He did with glory
Cup overflows, you never hear, "Pour me"
Opportunity knocks, the ladies adore me
It's the rap game, who could outscore me?
As far as decades, I'm f*cking with three like an orgy
Backyard pimpin', telling old stories
The City of Wind, I drink with champs like N.O.R.E.
My trophy case is for seeing black faces
Smiling on a regular basis with graces
It's gon' be rainy days
When it's done, we gon' be good
Trust it's just a phase
When it's done, we gon' be good
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time
You don't gotta save the world
We can take it one day at a time, yeah, yeah (it's grand)
Fam is all good, pushing through the hood (is)
And it's (grand)
Drink a little wine, take a little time (is)
And it's (grand)
