All Night Long
Common Lyrics

Durin divine hours I use mind power to refine
During spiritual hours, I use the power of my mind to improve myself

Flour/flower girls and make em feel like black pearls
I empower women and make them feel special

Get they minds off acryllic nails and the rap world
I help women focus on their true worth, not just their appearance or the culture around them

It's a lot you can find in the lost black girl
There are many valuable lessons and insights to be learned from women who feel lost or overlooked

Made signs built in lodges, we be in garages
I create symbols and messages in secret, anywhere from private gatherings to everyday places

Discussin who we boned and who God is
In our conversations, we mix the profane with the sacred, discussing everything from our sexual exploits to our beliefs about the divine

Pro-black like Craig Hodges with my dashikis in the cleaners
I am fiercely proud of my black identity, even as I strive to keep my clothing clean and well-maintained

I kick it for the Chevy ridin head to backstreet leaners
My music is enjoyed by people from all walks of life, from those who ride in luxury cars to those who hang out on the streets

Allllll.. (uhh) niiiiiight.. (yea yea, what?) [HAH]
I want to feel the vibe and connect with my audience all night long

Allllll.. [HUH, UHH] niiiiiight.. (whatcha say now Bee, what?)
My music creates a hypnotic, enduring atmosphere that draws people in

Allllll.. (yeah, yeah yeah) niiiiiight.. [AOW! Aoww-owwww]
Throughout the night, I want to keep the energy high and the crowd engaged

(to freak it with the) Allllll.. (now let me get a piece of this) (let me get a piece Bee) niiiiiight..
I want to have fun and enjoy the moment, even as I continue to connect with the audience

I was born underwater with three dollars and a cocktail
I was born into difficult circumstances, with very little money and a lot of obstacles

Tryin to make the Garden of Eden, out of Auckdale and Rockwell
Despite the challenges, I am determined to create a beautiful world for myself and those around me

Lock'd in this Grid like a Tupac tale
Like Tupac, I feel trapped in a grid or system that limits my opportunities and creativity

While her-on rock smells make the cops tail
The smell of marijuana attracts unwanted attention from law enforcement

My third eye is my rail, on this Illa-thought
My intuition is my guide, helping me navigate difficult or unconventional situations

With afrocentric stamps I'm mailin thoughts
I am sharing my ideas and perspectives, which are deeply influenced by my African heritage

To my Gods held in court
My music is a tribute to the artists and thinkers who came before me, many of whom were persecuted or oppressed

I dwell where rebellion's taught, and emotions seldom walk
I surround myself with people who challenge authority and conventional wisdom, even as I struggle to express my true feelings

I try to Walk Like an Egyptian, with Hieroglyphics spelled in chalk
I draw on the ancient wisdom of Egypt and other cultures, using symbols and language to convey my message

I guess the hustlin is the unspoken Gospel
In my world, hustling or striving to succeed is often seen as a higher calling than religion or spirituality

Love that I'm an apostle, feel the holy spirit of Chicago
I see myself as a spiritual leader, bringing new ideas and energy to my city

I think I, need a cup of a tea, because I'm novel
Even as I focus on my creative work and my place in the world, I also appreciate the simple pleasures of life

Iahhhhh jus' want to rock you Alllllll night looooong
My music is about connection and intimacy, creating a vibe that lasts all night long

A portrait of the Artist, formerly known as Sense
I am constantly evolving and changing as an artist and as a person

The brain-wash, with my vocal tones I rinses
My music has the power to wash away negative thoughts or emotions, creating a sense of clarity or catharsis

Opportunity and the beat knocks
With each new opportunity and each new beat, I am inspired to create and to push myself further

Women, give me rhythm like beatbox, but it's the year
In this moment, women are my inspiration and my source of energy, just like the beat of a drum

Of completion, I want a Queen to complete Rash'
I am looking for a partner who can support me, challenge me, and help me grow as a person

Who's flavored from stacks, to Reeboks
My ideal partner has a diverse range of experiences and interests, spanning everything from financial success to fashion

Send blessings to the family of Ice Mike
I am grateful for my life and my opportunities, even as I acknowledge the struggles and losses of those around me

Shit like that, don't help me write right, but I got site/sight
Inspiration can come from anywhere, even from mundane or difficult situations

Like a destruction worker, when it's time to build
My music is about breaking down barriers and creating something new and powerful

Get off like Sam Jack' and it's +Time to Kill+
I channel the anger and frustration of the oppressed, using it as fuel to create something transformative

In perseverence I'ma find a meal, and provoke
Even in difficult times, I stay focused on my goals and use my creativity to push against the status quo

My Gramps used to trick off big papers at the Riverboat
My grandfather was a gambler and a risk-taker, shaping my family's legacy and my own approach to life

On and on and on and onnnn
My music is eternal and boundless, continuing to inspire and connect with new generations

A portrait of the Artist, formerly known as Sense
As an artist and a person, I am always evolving and changing, shedding my old identity and taking on new challenges

The brain-wash, with my vocal tones I rinses
With my voice and my music, I am able to inspire and uplift my audience, freeing them from negativity and stress

Women, give me rhythm like beatbox, but it's the year
In this moment, I am focused on creating music that empowers and celebrates women, who are the source of my creativity and inspiration

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. all night
Throughout the night, I am fully immersed in my music, creating a magical and unforgettable experience for my audience

Allllll.. niiiiiight.. you got it goin all night
My music is about creating and sustaining momentum, keeping the party going all night long
