歌词
作词 : Common
作曲 : Dion Wilson/Lonnie Lynn
Yes, yes, y'all and you don't stop
To the beat y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes, y'all and you don't stop
1, 2, y'all and you don't stop
Yes, yes, y'all and you don't stop
And to the beat Com Sense'll be the sure shot, come on
I met this girl when I was 10 years old
And what I loved most she had so much soul
She was old school when I was just a shorty
Never knew throughout my life she would be there for me
On the regular not a church girl she was secular
Not about the money no studs was mic checkin her
But I respected her she hit me in the heart
A few New York ****in' had did her in the park
But she was there for me and I was there for her
Pull out a chair for her turn on the air for her
And just cool out cool out and listen to her
Sittin on bone wishin that I could do her
Eventually if it was meant to be then it would be
Cuz' we related physically and mentally
And she was fun then I'd be geeked when she'd come around
Slim was fresh jo when she was underground
Original pure untampered and down sister
Boy I tell ya I miss her
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 Com-Sense is gonna' drop
Now periodically I would see
Ol' girl at the clubs and at the house parties
She didn't have a body but she started gettin' thick quick
Did a couple of videos and became afrocentric
Out goes the weave in goes the braids beads medallions
She was on that tip about stoppin the violence
About my people she was teachin me
But not preachin to me but speakin to me
In a method that was leisurely so easily I approached
She dug my rap that's how we got close
But then she broke to the West coast and that was cool
Cause around the same time I went away to school
And I'm a man of expandin' so why should I stand in her way
She probably get her money in L A
And she did stud she got big pub but what was foul
She said that the pro-black was goin out of style
She said "Afrocentricity was of the past "
So she got into R&B hip-house bass and jazz
Now black music is black music and it's all good
I wasn't salty she was with the boys in the hood
Cause that was good for her she was becomin well rounded
I thought it was ****in' how she was on that freestyle shit
Just havin' fun not worried about anyone
And you could tell by how her ****in' hung
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
1 2 Com-Sense is gonna' drop
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
I might've failed to mention that the chick was creative
But once the man got to her he altered the native
Told her if she got an image and a gimmick
That she could make money and she did it like a dummy
Now I see her in commercials she's universal
She used to only swing it with the inner-city circle
Now she be in the burbs lookin' rock and dressin' hip
And on some dumb shit when she comes to the city
Talkin about poppin glocks servin rocks and hittin switches
Now she's a ****in' rollin with ****in' bums
Always smokin blunts and gettin drunk
Tellin me sad stories now she only ****s with the funk
Stressin how hardcore and real she is
She was really the realest before she got into show-biz
I did her not just to say that I did it
But I'm committed but so many ****in' hit it
That she's just not the same lettin all these groupies do her
I see ****ers slammin her and takin her to the sewer
But I'ma take her back hopin that the shit stop
Cause who I'm talkin bout y'all is hip-hop
To the beat y'all and you don't stop
Yes yes, y'all and you don't stop
Ya'll be the sure shot,
Yes yes y'all and you don't stop
to the beat y'all and you don't stop
Yes, yes, y'all and you don't stop
1 2 Com-Sense is gonna' drop
Haha Haha
I Used To Love H.E.R.
