Song information

Artist: Common
Album: Electric Circus

Lyrics

Erykah badu and common ( deeply):

Verse 1:

Everyone hides thier face
Sets behind a mask they wear
Jimi was a rock star
Searching for that magic place
That
He could touch
In the sky
Just to get his people high

Ohhhhhhhhh (jack!)
Oh oh ohhhhhh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Ohhhhhhhhh (jack!)(repeat)

Verse 2:

Life is so, colorful
Reds, blues and dreams
Jimi lives in a purple haze
In a psychadelic maze
Playing the streets like and instrument:
Pulling strings wherever he went
Angel sent
From the sky
Just to get his people high

Ohhhhhhhhhh (jack!)
Ohhhhhhh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Ohhhhhhhh (jack!)(repeat)

Women all around (ehh da da daaa da)
Fast cars and sound (ehh da da daaa da)
And freedom he was bound (ehh da da daaa da)
Couldn't see the ground (ehh da da daaa da)

Jimi come out why dont you set me free?!
(Set me free)

Sooooo high
Born to fly
Getting high off his own supply
?
Everybody follows the same lord
Using his light to guide the way
?
?...Try things but few die so young
Something among
Jimi was stung

Everyone
Hides thier face
Sets behind a mask they wear
(Back ground: jimi come out why dont you set me free?)till end
