[00:00.00]	作词 : Byrd, Jones, Mitchell
[00:12.13]	Check me out y'all, Nasty Nas in your area
[00:17.05]	About to cause mass hysteria
[00:19.67]
[00:21.60]	Before a blunt, I take out my fronts
[00:23.54]	Then I start to front, matter of fact, I be on a manhunt
[00:26.91]	You couldn't catch me in the streets without a ton of reefer
[00:30.03]	That's like Malcolm X, catchin the Jungle Fever
[00:31.90]	King poetic, too much flavor, I'm major
[00:33.91]	Atlanta ain't Brave-r, I'll pull a number like a pager
[00:37.09]	Cause I'm am ace when I face the bass
[00:39.33]	40-side is the place that is giving me grace
[00:41.76]	Now wait, another dose and you might be dead
[00:44.20]	And I'm a Nike head, I wear chains that excite the feds
[00:47.13]	And ain't a damn thing gonna change
[00:49.44]	I'ma performer show the mic warmer was born to gain
[00:53.31]	Nas, why did you do it?
[00:54.68]	You know you got the mad fat fluid when you rhyme, it's halftime
[00:57.11]	It's halftime
[00:57.47]
[01:02.71]	Aiyyo it's halftime
[01:03.78]
[01:07.52]	It's halftime
[01:08.51]
[01:12.82]	Yeah, it's about halftime
[01:13.74]
[01:18.92]	This is how it feel, check it out, how it feel
[01:22.10]	It's like that, you know it's like that
[01:23.47]	I got it hemmed, now you never get the mic back
[01:25.34]	When I attack, there ain't an army that could strike back
[01:27.71]	So I react never calmly on a hype track
[01:30.40]	I set it off with my own rhyme
[01:31.77]	Cause I'm as ill as a convict who kills for phone time
[01:34.21]	I'm max like cassettes, I flex like sex
[01:36.20]	in your stereo sets, Nas will catch wreck
[01:38.64]	I used to hustle, now all I do is relax and strive
[01:41.32]	When I was young, I was a fan of the Jackson 5
[01:44.68]	I drop jewels, wear jewels, hope to never run it
[01:47.55]	With more kicks than a baby in a mother's stomach
[01:49.92]	Nasty Nas has to rise cause I'm wise
[01:52.24]	This is exercise 'til the microphone dies
[01:54.92]	Back in eighty-three I was an MC sparking
[01:57.60]	But I was too scared to grab the mic's in the park and
[02:00.54]	kick my little raps cause I thought niggaz wouldn't understand
[02:02.72]	And now in every jam I'm the fuckin man
[02:05.40]	I rap in front of more niggaz than in the slave ships
[02:08.52]	I used to watch C.H.I.P.S., now I load glock clips
[02:10.83]	I got to have it, I miss Mr. Magic
[02:13.01]	Versatile, my style switches like a faggot
[02:15.69]	But not bisexual, I'm an intellectual
[02:18.57]	Of rap, I'm a professional and that's no question, yo
[02:20.44]	These are the lyrics of the man, you can't near it, understand
[02:23.99]	Cuz in the streets, I'm well known like the number man
[02:27.18]	In my place wit the bass and format
[02:30.05]	Explore rap, and tell me Nas ain't all that
[02:32.39]	And next time I rhyme, I be foul
[02:34.02]	Whenever I freestyle I see trial niggaz say I'm wow
[02:37.51]	I hate a rhymebiter's rhyme
[02:39.20]	Stay tuned, Nas, soon the real rap comes at halftime
[02:42.38]
[02:43.13]	It's halftime
[02:44.07]
[02:45.38]	Exhale, check it it's halftime
[02:48.12]	It's halftime
[02:48.24]
[02:51.55]	It's real in the field
[02:53.54]	Word life, check it
[02:55.23]
[03:03.47]	I got it goin on, even flip 'em on this song
[03:05.71]	Every afternoon, I kick half the tune
[03:08.33]	And in the darkness, I'm heartless like when the NARCs hit
[03:11.33]	Word to Marcus Garvey I hardly sparked it
[03:13.20]	Cause when I blast the herb, that's my word
[03:15.82]	I be slayin them fast, doing this that and the third
[03:18.44]	But chill, past to Andre, and let's slay
[03:20.88]	I bag bitches up at John Jay, and hit a matinee
[03:23.62]	Puttin hits on 5-0
[03:25.68]	Csudr when it's my time to go, I wait for God wit the fo'-fo'
[03:29.30]	And biters can't come near
[03:30.99]	And yo, go to hell to the foul cop who shot Garcia
[03:34.42]	I won't plant seeds, don't need an extra mouth I can't feed
[03:37.28]	That's extra Phillie change, more cash for that weed
[03:39.72]	This goes out to Manhattan, the island of Staten
[03:42.89]	Brooklyn and Queens is livin fat and
[03:44.88]	The Boogie Down, enough props, enough clout
[03:46.88]	Ill Will, rest in peace, yo, I'm out
[03:49.31]
[03:54.31]	It's still halftime
[03:55.28]
[03:56.21]	To the Queensbridge crew
[03:58.21]	To the Queensbridge crew, you know it's halftime
[04:00.39]	Ninety-two, it's halftime
