Lyrics

[00:02.50] Yeah, check check, testing
[00:04.96]
[00:06.22] It's clear out there? Yeah
[00:08.77]
[00:16.35] It's like
[00:16.68] I'm hang gliding over the hood, ha
[00:17.93]
[00:25.82] Never worry (ohhh, no, no, no)
[00:28.77]
[00:30.94] Check, let there be light
[00:33.20]
[00:34.04] No gang banging in New York tonight
[00:36.13] Just murals of Biggie Smalls,
[00:37.68] bigger then life
[00:38.83] Turn up the kid mic cuz
[00:40.22] ya'll ain't listening right
[00:41.14]
[00:41.81] What's all this talk that Nas got bought?
[00:43.53]
[00:44.09] I'd rather outline my body in white chalk
[00:45.66]
[00:46.93] Ain't nobody been where I been,
[00:48.42] they at a stand still
[00:49.88] This is all overseen by my man Will
[00:51.31] As I walk through the shadow of death
[00:54.18] I know that
[00:54.84] I ain't got much time left
[00:56.98] And they don't really wanna see the good in me
[00:59.13] Ain't satisfied until they see the fool in me
[01:01.98] (And I)
[01:02.51] I know my business, so my sins great
[01:04.12] (And I)
[01:04.90] I thank the hood for all the love they gave
[01:07.27] (And I) Forgive 'em all,
[01:08.27] they did they best to hate
[01:10.27] Oh, let there be light
[01:12.73] This ain't the glorified,
[01:13.50] just painting the street picture
[01:14.77] There's no God in sir Bibles,
[01:16.03] just blunt and switches
[01:17.24] Gillettes cut pain in kitchen
[01:19.20] Now every rapper wanna claim he
[01:21.00] hang with Kenneth ＂Supreme＂ Griffith
[01:22.31] It's like the same difference cept
[01:23.89] when niggaz get arraigned
[01:25.19] They don't want the same sentence,
[01:26.58] niggaz get to snitchin
[01:27.82] If I could reverse the monsters
[01:29.46] and turn forward the razas
[01:30.86] And bring back the niggaz who was livest
[01:32.69] Old hustlers,
[01:33.73] reminscing on better days
[01:35.58] They home, doing nothing,
[01:36.59] might as well be in a cage
[01:38.21] Hating on young brothers,
[01:39.42] one foot in the grave
[01:40.55] They used to love us till
[01:41.73] we found our own way thru the maze
[01:43.14] New York, set trippin and flaggin
[01:45.12] Got the West Coast laughing, now Esco's asking
[01:47.73] What happened? My homegirl from upper Manhattan
[01:50.24] She remembers the quarters that's Latin,
[01:52.05] alotta rat-a-tat-tatting
[01:53.35] This is all overseen by my man Will
[01:55.03] As I walk through the shadow of death
[01:56.48] I know that
[01:57.32] I ain't got much time left
[01:58.88] And they don't really wanna see the good in me
[02:01.07] Ain't satisfied until they see the fool in me
[02:03.90] (And I)
[02:04.36] I know my business, so my sins great
[02:06.07] (And I)
[02:06.97] I thank the hood for all the love they gave
[02:09.10] (And I) Forgive 'em all,
[02:10.19] they did they best to hate
[02:12.08] Oh, let there be light
[02:14.28] The son of the audio cassette era,
[02:15.78] tech wearer
[02:16.62] Bullets and begets, Binzbo's speaker terror
[02:19.34] Till man I get mine till I'm dead,
[02:21.12] so I can drive sumpthin red
[02:22.49] Like that horse standing on it's hind legs
[02:24.19] Since Arnold and Willis in they bunk beds
[02:26.19] I wanted bread like Wonder,
[02:27.49] not manned-a-wanno like the parent of Lionel
[02:29.89] Nas is the Ghetto American Idol
[02:31.91] No matter what you do
[02:33.32] you're never getting my title
[02:34.78] I can't sound smart cuz ya'll'll run away
[02:36.85] They say I ain't hungry no more
[02:38.61] and I don't talk about 'ye
[02:39.85] Like there's no other way for a ex-hustler
[02:41.95] Cake ya, the x-ray splitter to touch ya,
[02:44.14] I beg to differ
[02:45.19] When you're four years into the game,
[02:46.51] we can have a conversation
[02:47.74] Eight years in the game,
[02:48.85] I invite ya on vacation
[02:49.93] Ten years in the game,
[02:51.29] after I've enjoyed my fame
[02:53.26] Only then I let ya pick my brain, niggaz
[02:55.60] (And I) Right about now (And I)
[02:59.00] (They don't really know)
