Black magic. [×32]
[Verse 1: Common]
Who that boy? He radical,
Talk that money, talk emphatical.
Who in the game had the baddest hoes?
Niggas seen Badu's ass and said, ‘I seen what you was on.'
Home grown with no home phone,
From the City of Wind, nigga, win or go home,
It's the Chi bullshit I'm on,
Make a dome from a brick and a pocket full of stones.
Hit them cones, clips and chron,
I don't play away games, I got hitters at home.
I'm a dime like six in the morn',
Me and Muhammad speak in similar tones.
Go hard like pyramid stones,
Stand the test of time, cross the burning sands
With aggressive rhymes, I'm blessed to rhyme,
I invest in time,
Like Superman stick out my chest and shine, I'm…

[Verse 2: Common]
Yeah, yeah, I'm black, I'm magical,
I write for facts that's actual,
Keep it one hunnid, that's natural
To get them new blue hundreds, nigga's strapped with flow.
Shout out to block and DC, make it capital,
I done made enough. I don't have to rap no more.
Tell the truth, that ain't what I'm rappin' for,
Got a whole lot, so we can have some more.
So roscoe go to Red Diamond, make ‘em clap some more,
Clap-clap, home of the original gangbangers,
Gun clappers, no lackers, rack stackers.
Movie, we are black actors,
Makin' something outta nothing, black magic,
What I do, I own like magic,
Status of the livest and established,
Girl with the fattest, I'm givin' you the gladdest
Night you ever had, this magic.

[Jhené Aiko:]
Neewteb ni tsixe I, ereh ton ma I,
Maerd ruoy ni evah uoy suoicsnoc eht ma I.
[Outro: Jhené Aiko]
I am the matter that cannot be seen,
I am the conscious you have in your dream,
Do not be scared of my dark energy,
I am not here I exist in between.
Yeah, that's me, I'm magical,
I'm black, I'm strapped with magic, bro,
I'm nothing you have had before,
I'm everything but nothing more.
