Nas is like
Iron Mike, Messiah type
I'm like being locked down around new faces and none of 'em fam'
Nas is like life or death
Saw my close friends shot, flatline am I sane?
Same time my man is murdered, the beginning and end
Nas is like
Bulletproof glass, inside is the realest driver
Much to success to ya, even if you wish me the opposite
It's a dirty game, is any man worthy of fame?
Some'll fall but I rise, thug or die
Freedom or jail, clips inserted, a baby's bein' born
Always got you, I'm like Pac, dude you would cry for
Half man, half amazing
Earth, Wind and Fire, rims and tires
Nas is like life or death
My plateau and also, what defines my name
Nas is
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Nas is like
And of course NAS are the letters that spell
To the big dogs livin' large, takin' it light
I'm a rebel
Dimes, givin' fellatio, Siete Zeros
Nas is like
Nas is like
No doubt
Nas is like
The last one left, let my cash invest in stock
Half man, half amazing
Nas is like
Before the Christ, after the death
But what's it all worth, can't take it when you under this Earth
Tarot cards, you can see the Pharaoh Nas
I'm the feelin' of a millionaire spendin' a hundred grand
They just rob your grave, I'd rather be alive and paid
I'm like ecstasy for ladies, I'm like all races
Nas is like
Is what you make it, suicide few try to take it
Half man, half amazing
Corporate accounts from a rich company
Songwriters: Nasir Jones, Chris Martin, William Mitchell
Sooner or later we'll all see who the Prophet is
Combined in one man like the nineteen ninety nine summer jam
Half man, half amazing
I'm like beef, bustin' heat through your windows
First it was nasty but times have changed
To rob steal or kill, I'm wondering why?
Nas is
Bet my nine spit for the pesos
Before my number's called, history's made
From the projects with no chips, to large cake dough
Half man, half amazing
Rich men died and tried but none of it worked

Nas is like
That depends, Carry Mac ten's to practice my aim
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Sex to a nympho but nothin' sweet
Saw fiends shoot up and do lines of Cocaine
I'm like a street sweeper, greenleaf reaper
Now
Nas is like life or death
Nas is like
On roof tops, tape CD covers to trees
Live it, and I write down and I watch it blow up
Nas is
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Nas is like
I'm like a whole lot of loot, I'm like crisp money
Nas is like
Ask me now, I'm the artist but hardcore, my science for pain
Pushin' big toys, gettin' nice, enjoyin' your life
Came a along way from blastin', techs on blocks
Bulletproof hummer man
Half man, half amazing
Nas is like
Nas is like life or death
I'm a poor man's dream, a thug poet
Like Greeks in Egypt, learnin' somethin deep from their teachers
Nas is like
Went from Seiko to Rolex, ownin' acres
Nas is like
Nas is like
I'm a rebel
Nas is like
Y'all know what I'm like, y'all play it your system every night
I spent time in the game, kept my mind on fame
No doubt
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Nas is like life or death
Nas is like
Belt tied around they neck in jail cells naked
I'm like crime, like your nine, your man you would die for
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Nas is like
No doubt
I'm a rebel
Planets in orbit, line 'em up with the stars
As far as rap go, it's only natural, I explain
Nas is like life or death
My poetry's deep, I never fell
No doubt
Nas is like
Nas is like
Nas is like
I'm a rebel
Nas is
Street scriptures for lost souls, in the crossroads
Nas is like
No doubt
I'm a rebel
I'm a rebel
Heaven and hell, rap legend, presence is felt
Nas is
Nas is like
Nas is like
To the corner thugs hustlin' for cars that cost dough
Nas is like
No doubt
Nas is like
Makin' choices that determine my future under the sky
Nas is
Line the barrel up with your weak picture then squeeze
