1
Uhh... Yeah... Uhh...
2
[Verse 1 (Nas)]
3
Blessings in life to the children
4
They say life is like 5 days
5
Words of a old man with silver hair in his wheel chair
6
His eyes were bloody while describin' what lies before me
7
Said evil bitches and jealous men would try to destroy me
8
It occurred to me, this old nigga's words couldn't be realer
9
I'm on top now, slightest drama, I'll have ta kill ya
10
Cuz animals sence weakness, sharks smell blood in water
11
Ishmael, Moses and Job, moved a divine order
12
Shit is plastic material, havin' no life
13
I crash whips and leave it no matter the price
14
As long as I survive, coppin' the five
15
Circle the block where the beef's at
16
And park in front of my enemy's eyes
17
They see that it's war we life stealers
18
Hollow tip, lead busters there's no heaven or hell
19
Dead is dead, fuckers
20
And your soul is with God
21
Your mind keeps lurkin' to earth
22
Watchin' your own murder reoccur
23
[Chorus (Repeat 2X)]
24
For ever struggle, every strip, and every ghetto
25
For every nigga toned in the pain and heavy metal
26
For every child that's born
27
And every nigga gone
28
And for every brotha breathin'
29
Live to see another mornin'
30
[Verse 2 (Blitz)]
31
It's Blitz nigga the streets glory many die for me
32
Got knocked refused 3 to 9's, went to trial for me
33
Basically I'm just reality loaded with vast stories
34
Of lust, greed, and contempt no street is exempt
35
Extended clip shots hoods barricaded for 6 blocks
36
I sip shots, watchin' em hustlers pitch rocks
37
All you paintin' pictures of my pain
38
Illustrate the city in vain
39
Fallin' deep into the pits of the game
40
This is for the sickest state of mind
41
In these fatal times, vesh crimes
42
Nickel play the nine and niggas for the dime
43
Hear the sounds of them baby's cry
44
Still I'm sayin' why do we reside
45
In the ghetto with a million ways to die
46
Stayin' high to relieve the pain
47
Breathin' in the game, exhalin'
48
Guilts and the shame, misery and strain
49
What the fuck will tomorrow bring
50
Look at anthrax, I stand back through
51
Hopin' I make it tomorrow
52
[Verse 3 (Nas)]
53
My skin is a art gallery, right
54
With paintings of crucifixes
55
Hopin' to save me from all the dangers in the music business
56
Was once a young gangsta hangin' with youth offenders
57
But since I tasted paper it started losin the friendships
58
Watchin' kids freeze in winters, they still poor
59
How could I tease them with Benz's and feel no remorse
60
Drivin' past them in the lively fashion, diamond colors clashin'
61
Red stones, blue stones, red bones and black ones
62
Fuck did I expect with bucket seats in a Lex
63
And spendin' time in Chuckie Cheese with Little Des
64
Got guns when I'm with my daughter
65
Hate to bring a violent aura in her presence
66
She knows what daddy taught her, it's lessons
67
Black princess it's a ugly world
68
I put my life up for yours, see I love that girl
69
Could you believe even my shadow's jealous
70
My skin is mad at my flesh, my flesh hates my own bones
71
My brain hates my heart, my heart makes the songs
72
Though my songs come from the Father
73
I'm lonely...
74
Hold me, it's gettin' darker
75
[Repeat Chorus 2X]
