|
My first album had no famous guest appearances |
|
The outcome, |
|
I'm was crowned the best lyricist |
|
Many years on this professional level |
|
Why would you question who's better? |
|
The world is still mine, tattoos real |
|
With "god's son" across the belly, the boss of rap |
|
You saw me in belly with thoughts like that |
|
To take it back to africa, |
|
I did it with biggie |
|
Me and 2pac were soldiers of the same struggle |
|
You lames should huddle, your teams shook y'all feel |
|
The wrath of a killer, 'cause this is my football field |
|
Throwin' passes from a barrel, shoulder pads, apparel |
|
But the q.b. don't stand for no quarterback |
|
Every word is like a sawed-off blast'cause y'all all soft and |
|
I'm the black hearse |
|
That came to haul y'all ass in |
|
It's for the hood by the corner store |
|
Many try, many die, come at nas if you want a war.[chorus][verse 2] |
|
I'm the n the a to the s-i-r |
|
And if I wasn't |
|
I must've been escobar |
|
You know the kid got his chipped tooth fixed |
|
Hair parted with a barbers preciseness |
|
Bravehearted for life, it's - |
|
The return of the golden child, son of a blues player |
|
So who are you playa? y'all awaited the true savior |
|
Puffin' that tropical, cups of that vodka too |
|
Papi chu', tore up, wake up in a hospital |
|
Throw up? never, 'member |
|
I do this through righteous steps |
|
You judists thought |
|
I was gone, so in light of my death |
|
Y'all been all happy go lucky, bunch of sambos |
|
Call me gods son, with my pants low |
|
I don't die slow, put them rags up like petey pablo |
|
This is nasdaq dough, in my nascar with this nas flow, reppin' |
|
Hit the record sto', never let me go, get my whole collection.[chorus][verse 3] |
|
It's - the - return of the prince, the boss |
|
This is real hardcore, kid rock and limp bizkit's soft |
|
Sip criss, get chips, wrist gliss, |
|
I flossStick shift look sick up in that boxed up porsche |
|
With the top cut off, rich kids go and cop the source |
|
They don't know about the blocks |
|
I'm onAnd everybody wanna know where the kid live, where he rest at? |
|
Where he shop at and dress at? |
|
Know he got dough, where does he live? |
|
Is he still in the bridge? |
|
Does he really know how ill that he is? |
|
Got all of y'all watchin' my moves |
|
My watch and my jewels |
|
Hop in my coupe, dodge interviews like that |
|
It's not only my jewels, ice anything, plenty chains |
|
Look at my tennis shoes, |
|
I iced that |
|
Who am i? the back twister, lingerie ripper |
|
Automatic leg spreader, quicker brain getter |
|
Keepin' it gangsta wit' ya[chorus] |
