Commons are resources that are owned in common or shared among communities. These resources are said to be "held in common" and can include everything from natural resources and common land to software. The commons contains public property and private property, over which people have certain traditional rights. In some areas the process by which commonly held property is transformed into private property is termed "enclosure". A person who has a right in, or over, common land jointly with another or others is called a commoner.
The commons were traditionally defined as the elements of the environment - forests, atmosphere, rivers, fisheries or grazing land - that are shared, used and enjoyed by all.

Alexander Grant (born 27 August 1983), better known as Alex da Kid, is an English music songwriter and hip-hop producer.
Grant was a professional football player, playing for Bristol City until when, at 19 years of age, his friend introduced him to the digital music editing software Fruity Loops, which prompted an interest in music production. He then attended Thames Valley University to obtain a bachelor’s degree in audio technology.
Universal Music Publishing Group's Jessica Rivera first heard about him through Grant's lawyer Scott Felcher. On request Grant sent Rivera some of his music, and the publishing executive later related her reactions to HitQuarters: "It hit me right away that this dude had something different to bring to the table ... He wasn't just straight up hip-hop – his sound was very different and transcended genres."
What I thought wasn't mine
In the light, wasn't one of a kind
A precious pearl when I wanted to cry
I couldn't 'cause I wasn't allowed
Gomenasai for everything
Gomenasai, I know I let you down
Gomenasai till the end, I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought wasn't all so innocent
Was a delicate doll of porcelain
When I wanted to call you and ask you for help
I stopped myself
Gomenasai for everything
Gomenasai, I know I let you down
Gomenasai till the end, I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought was a dream, a mirage
Was as real as it seemed, a privilege
When I wanted to tell you, I made a mistake
I walked away
Gomenasai, for everything, Gomenasai, Gomenasai
Gomenasai, I never needed a friend, like I do now
Gomenasai, I let you down, Gomenasai, Gomenasai
Gomenasai till the end, I never needed a friend
What I thought wasn't mine
In the light
Was one of a kind,
A precious pearl
When I wanted to cry
I couldn't cause I
Wasn't allowed
Gomennasai for everything
Gomennasai, I know I let you down
Gomennasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought wasn't all
So innocent
Was a delicate doll
Of porcelain
When I wanted to call you
And ask you for help
I stopped myself
Gomennasai for everything
Gomennasai, I know I let you down
Gomennasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought was a dream
A mirage
Was as real as it seemed

When I wanted to tell you
I made a mistake
I walked away
Gomennasai, for everything
Gomennasai, Gomennasai,
I never needed a friend,
Like I do now
Gomennasai, I let you down
Gomennasai, Gomennasai, Gomennasai,
Gomennasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Você me pergunta
Aonde eu quero chegar
Se há tantos caminhos na vida
E pouca esperança no ar
E até a gaivota que voa
Já tem seu caminho no ar
O caminho do fogo é a água
O caminho do barco é o porto
O do sangue é o chicote
O caminho do reto é o torto
O caminho do bruxo é a nuvem
O da nuvem é o espaço
O da luz é o túnel
O caminho da fera é o laço
O caminho da mão é o punhal
O do santo é o deserto
O do carro é o sinal
O do errado é o certo
O caminho do verde é o cinzento
O do amor é o destino
O do cesto é o cento
O caminho do velho é o menino
O da água é a sede
O caminho do frio é o inverno
O do peixe é a rede
O do pio é o inferno
O caminho do risco é o sucesso
O do acaso é a sorte
O da dor é o amigo
What I thought wasn't mine
In the light
Was one of a kind,
A precious pearl
When I wanted to cry
I couldn't cause I
Wasn't allowed

I never needed a friend
Like I do now
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
The world is full of pain and heartache
But I was sure I was in you
I never thought I'd make your heart break, o-oh
Well, I was causing my commosion
You played a different kind of tune
I should have valued your devotion, o-oh o-oh o-oh
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I never meant to make you cry
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
How can I heal the pain you have
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I gave an oath, I broke a promise
You would be right to turn me down
As long as I could give your heart bliss, o-oh
I only have the best intensions
I wish that things could be undone
Can you forgive my circumvensions, o-oh o-oh o-oh
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I never meant to make you cry
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
How can I heal the pain you have
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I never meant to make you cry
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to harm you and make you cry
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to harm you and make you cry
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
I never meant to make you cry
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
Gomen nasai, gomen nasai
How can I heal the pain you have
Vê se volta logo meu amor
Não aguento mais essse sufoco
O meu corpo sem sentir o seu
De desejo pode ficar louco
Meu amor
Não dá mais pra viver sem você
É difícil tentar esquecer
Tudo aquilo que houve entre a gente
Foi demais
E você teve tudo de mim
Com você, me encontrei, me perdi
Te perdi, no caminho a esperança
Amo você, volta pra mim
Eu quero sentir teu calor, te abraçar
Bem forte poder te beijar, se lambuzar
Me afogar no seu prazer..
Camins, que ara s’esvaeixen
Camins, que hem de fer sols
Camins, vora les estrelles,
Camins, ara no hi són
Van deixar-ho tot, el cor ences pel mon
Per les parets de la mort sobre la pell
Eren dos ocells de foc sembrant tempestes
Ara son dos fills del sol en aquest desert
Mai no es massa tard per tornar a començar
Per sortir a buscar el teu tresor
Camins, somnis i promeses
Camins, ja son nous.
No es senzill saber cap on has de marxar
Pren la direccio del teu cor
Mai no es massa tard per tornar a començar
Per sortir a buscar el teu tresor
Camins, que ara s’esvaeixen
Camins, que es fa fer sol
Camins, vora les estrelles,
Chambers of repulsion and bodies on the walls
Hanging heads in darkest halls and columns made of
bones
Welcome to the kingdom where the air smother lungs
Of bloody fates of horror and piles of corpses without
essence
Diabolic nature the unholy art of sin
The flies eat the disposal flesh without any kind of
blame
An ancient smell of death dwells in the tortures stairs
Years of scorn in this place have been carried out
And from the Mount Palatine the cult of anger rise
The Tiber River drains the blood of the ones who died
This bloodbath is a punishment for those who broke the
rules
A trail of tombs absorbs their hostages to the holes
Organic sculptures and monoliths of flesh
Decorate the macabre agony of this place
[Chorus:]
The Gemonias overflowed by the masses
Of disfigured human structures and disgusting wrath
The impaled ones and the laments of the crucified
Constitute the core of this hell
And in the shadows a disgraceful fury arises
The beast destroys their flesh and feed of the
unjustice
This bloodbath is a punishment for those who broke the
rules
A trail of tombs absorbs their hostages to the holes
Organic sculptures and monoliths of flesh
Go human time bombs
Go robotic believers
Protect your only war reserves
Go great destroyers
Killers of holy nurture
Legacy of genocide rulers
And tyrants
'Cause God do we have to be
Perversions of our innate pride and arrogance
Have to learn
Have to learn
Have to learn
We have to swallow
Go humans go destroyers
Go until it's gone
(What would it cost you)
(To face your thoughts)
(You needed your sovereignty and)
(Your precious things hurdle everything)
God do we have to be
Competitors to be the worst in history
Cannot learn
Cannot learn
Cannot learn
We cannot store it
Go humans go destroyers
