Kanye West produced it for G.O.O.D. Music
This is how the rhyme scheme breaks down:
Common/Common Sense uses a lot of "near-rhymes" a.k.a. words that almost rhyme on paper, but rhymes when pronounced with slang
These are
Words of a believer
Achiever
LEAder
Of the globe
Free the
Souls
Of those
In need.
I bleed
The blood
Of the struggle
Walking over troubled
Puddles
The hustler's
In my chest
No hustling
No progress
Extremities of life in this process
The birth of a son, the death of ANOther
With LOVE I caress both mothers
And told
Them, “Who’s in control,
It's the one that’s above us”
I walk bread, money talks, and love stutters
Body language
Of a nation
Going through changes
The young become dangerous
Pain is
MENDed into anger
Anger
…
Common Sense
