[shotgun blast]

[old school break beat, thugs chant "Bravehearts!" 7X]
|
|
[Verse 1: Nas]
|
Uh, uh, uh, now let's get it all in perspective
|
For all y'all enjoyment, a song y'all can step wit'
|
Y'all appointed me to bring rap justice
|
But I ain't five-O, y'all know it's Nas yo
|
Grey goose and a whole lotta hydro
|
Only describe us as soldier survivors
|
Stay laced in the best, well dressed with finesse
|
In a white tee lookin for wifie
|
Thug girl who fly and talks so nicely
|
Put her in the coupe so she can feel the nice breeze
|
We can drive thru the city no doubt, but don't say my car's topless
|
Say the titties is out, newness here's the anthem
|
Put your hand up that you shoot with, count your loot wit'
|
Push the pool stick in your new crib, same hand that you hoop with
|
Swing around like you stu-pid, king'a the town, yeah I been that
|
You know I click-clack where you and yor men's at
|
Do the Smurf, do the Wop, Baseball Bat
|
Rooftop like we bringing '88 back
|
|
[Chorus: Nas]
|
They shootin'! -- Aw made you look
|
You a slave to a page in my rhyme book
|
Gettin' Big/"big" money, playboy your time's up
|
Where them gangstas? Where them dimes at?
|
|
They shootin'! -- Aw made you look
|
You a slave to a page in my rhyme book
|
Gettin' Big/"big" money, playboy your time's up
|
Where them gangstas at? Where them dimes at?
|
|
[Verse 2: Nas]
|
This ain't rappin, this is Street-Hop
|
Now get up off your ass like your seat's hot
|
My live niggaz lit up the reefer
|
Trunk'a the car we got the streetsweeper
|
Don't start none, won't be none
|
No reason for your mans to panic
|
You don't wanna see no ambulances
|
Knock a pimp's drink down in his pimp cup
|
That's the way you get Timberland'd up
|
Let the music diffuse all the tension
|
Ball or convention, free admission
|
Hustlers, dealers and killers'ca move swift
|
Girls get close, you'ca feel where the tool's kept
|
All my just-comin' homies, parolees
|
Get money, leave the beef alone slowly
|
Get out my face, you people so phoney
|
Pull out my waist, the eagle fo-forty
|
|
[Chorus]
|
[thugs chanting "Bravehearts!" 4X over DJ scratching gunshots]
|
|
[Verse 3: Nas]
|
I see niggaz runnin', yo my mood is real rude
|
I lay you out, show you what steel do
|
Mobsters don't box, my pump shot obliges
|
Every invitation to fight you punk hazas
|
Like Pun said, "You ain't even en mi clasa"
|
Maybach Benz, back seat, tv plasma
|
Ladies lookin for athletes or rappers
|
Whatever you choose, whatever you do
|
Make sure he a thug and intelligent too
|
Like a real thoroughbred is, show me love
|
Lemme feel how the head is
|
Females whose the sexiest is always the nastiest
|
[record scratched off, Nas rhymes acapella]
|
And I like a little sassiness, a lotta class
|
Mommy reach in your bag, pass the fifth
|
I'm a leader, at last this a don you wit'
|
My nines'll spit, niggaz loose consciousness
|
