We’re On Our Way Common & Pete Rock

[Intro: Pete Rock]
Yeah

[Chorus: Common & Curtis Mayfield]
Our destination is constant elevation
You could tell the nation (And we're on our way)
We on the rise through the lows and the highs
Tell the world to recognize (And we're on our way)
We've only just begun, we've only just begun (To live)
We've only just begun, we've only just begun (To live) ("Hey")

[Verse 1: Common & Curtis Mayfield]
The Lord spoke, I listened to the vision I was given
It's the second Common, I've risen with the wisdom of the elders
Food, clothing, shelter
Prosperity, health and joy, it's what I knelt for
I've been dope once I learned who I dealt for
Knowledge of self, I felt more ("Hey")
Hot blocks, you melt or cook
My neck of the woods always got crooks
Cracks and crevices, I learned what the 7 is
The God number
And we deliver evidence of things unseen
We come to run things
I keep good will and I stay hunting
I was on King Drive, I had one dream (Fly)
My drive is like King for us to have something
Destiny called, I answer in one ring
Seen a Southside girl become queen ("Hey")
