Song lyrics
Louder, louder, yeah!
Yeah, it's for the people!
[Bridge: Common]
This is street radio for unsung heroes,
Ridin' in they Regal, tryna stay legal,
My daughter found Nemo, I found the new Primo,
‘Ye, you know how we do, we do it for the people.
[Verse 1: Common]
And the struggles of the brothas and the folks,
With lovers under dope, experiment to discover hopes,
Scuffle for notes, the rougher I wrote, times was harder,
Went from rocky starter to a voice of a martyr.
Why white folks focus on dogs and yoga
While people on the low end tryna ball and get over?
Lyrics are like liquor for the fallen soldiers,
From the bounce to the ounce, it's all our culture.
Everyday we hustlin', tryna them custom rims,
Law, we ain't trustin' them, thick broads, we lust in them.
Sick and tired of punchin' it, I look on the bus at them,
When I see them strugglin', I think how I'm touchin' them,
The people.
[Chorus: Dwele]
The days have come,
Now we are one,
Just take your time
And then you'll find.
[Bridge: Common]
This is street radio for unsung heroes,
Ridin' in they Regal, tryna stay legal,
My daughter found Nemo, I found the new Primo,
‘Ye, you know how we do, we do it for the people.
[Verse 2: Common]
The people said that I was sharp on TV
At the Grammy's, though they tried to India.Arie me.
Got backstage and I bumped into Stevie,
He said no matter what, the people gon' see me.
Can't leave rap alone, the streets need me,
Hunger in they eyes is what seems to feed me,
Inside peace mixed with beast seem to breed me,
Nobody believe until I believe me.
Now I'm on the rise, doin' business with my guys,
Visions realize, music affected lives,
A gift from the skies to be recognized,
I'm keepin' my eyes on the people, that's the prize.
[Chorus: Dwele]
The days have come,
Now we are one,
Just take your time
And then you'll find.
[Bridge: Common]
This is street radio for unsung heroes,
Ridin' in they Regal, tryna stay legal,
My daughter found Nemo, I found the new Primo,
‘Ye, you know how we do, we do it for the people.
[Verse 3: Common]
From Englewood to a single hood in Botswana,
I see the i in we, my nigga, yours is my drama,
Standin' in front of the judge with no honor,
My raps ignite the people like Obama.
The karma of the streets is needs and takes,
Sometimes we find peace in beats and breaks,
Put the bang in the back so the seats can shake,
Rebel Cadillac music for the people's sake.
The people.
[Chorus: Dwele]
The days have come,
Now we are one,
Just take your time
And then you'll find.
