I'll never forget when i was younger we use to let the radio play while we were sleeping and they would play this song around the same time every night. and i would always wake up out my sleep to jam for a lil while lol. this song just got that night time vibe
That reminds me of a erica badu song called other side of the game i used to lay on my sister floor at night waiting on it to come on and they would play it at the same time every night
Listen with headphones on! Don't miss a beat word or rhythm! Orchestral, powerful, prophetic, funky and majestic! Thank you, Common and Macy Gray!!! Bravo!!!!
"Whether serving or a surgeon you gone go through it, can't imagine going through it without soul music" "It's like Donny Hath helped me see Lonnie's path" Those two lines are deep as hell they pick me up when I'm down.
Cant even argue with dat, I cant lie though my list changes now and then bcuz music is so diverse, i cant really create a set list! but my top 5 right now is, 2pac, Andre 3000, Nas, Biggie, Common.
For me: DOOM, Andre 3k, Kendrick, Common, Mos Def. I appreciate Biggies and Pacs Talent and legacy, however I can’t bring myself to really enjoy their music. RIP tho
This song gave me alot of clarity when it first came out! This was real hip hop, Common is one of my favorites and it did him justice with the legendary Macy Gray! Just her vocals and the hook made this a serious vibe! The choreography was excellent 💯🌙🌛

Throwback! I miss this type of hip hop. These days I get excited when common, talib kweli, mos def, Q-tip, little brother, elzhi, 9th wonder etc drop albums.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I ever hear....that relationship died for u to be born.....for you to grow he had to go so what u stopping him for. I fell in love with Common after I heard this song.
His voice & universe are so rich... I don't see any duality in his eyes actually I guess that's what an emcee was meant to be. Strong, confident & inspiring. The filthy sh*t we're fed nowadays.. it's a shame bro
Common is such an intelligent and down to earth lyricist...love the way his mind works..and having the likes of Macy Gray on this was absolutely brilliant....
Common is beyond talented. Shame he isn't as recognised as other artists that don't even have a tenth of his skillz!!! :D I love him anyway!! And this is one of my fav tracks of his!!! Good memories!!!
I used to play the part two version of this song. I used play it often when I was stressed out and my anxiety would be triggered my freshman year of college. I would throw my headphones in, crank this up and tone every thing out. It gave goosebumps but also made me feel calm and warm. Idk but this song brought me real peace
One of my fav cuts and videos from Common. Loved the original, but I like this version better. The original had a more melancholy feel, but this track is hopeful and inspiring. I miss this energy from Com.
He's the only person, I know that will make you listen to the lyrics instead of grooving to the best and that's something that should stand in place exactly as Powerful as it is!!!!
