Common – “The Light”
The hip-hop legend and actor has blessed listeners with classics such as “I Used to Love Her,” “Resurrection,” and “U, Black Maybe.” But, one of Common’s best hip-hop songs is “The Light,” which he celebrates the inner and outer beauty of a woman.
Memorable lyrics from the song:
I never knew a luh, luh-luh, a love like this
Gotta be somethin for me to write this
Queen, I ain’t seen you in a minute
Wrote this letter, and finally decide to send it
Signed sealed delivered for us to grow together
Love has no limit, let’s spend it slow forever (© Common)
