(Feat. Keri Hilson)
2
[Chorus: Nas and Keri Hilson]
3
Chain gleaming
4
Switching lanes
5
Two-seating
6
Hate him or love him
7
For the same reason (wish)
8
Can't leave it
9
The games needs him
10
Plus the people need someone to believe in (this)
11
So in God's Son we trust
12
'Cause they know I'm gonna give 'em what they want
13
They looking for... A hero
14
I guess that makes me... A hero
15
[Verse 1: Nas]
16
Another chapter
17
Of the cleanest rapper
18
Distinguished gentlemen
19
Crooks and castle
20
On his back
21
Maybach-er
22
Exotic lady eye-catcher
23
Holla at'cha
24
Call me the chiropractor
25
Working like Muay Thai class
26
Get pers-pire out ya
27
And of course
28
I've been the boss
29
Since back when
30
Rocking D Boy
31
Fila, velor
32
In a 190 black Benz
33
Now they shut down the stores when I'm shopping
34
Used to be train robbing
35
Face covered in stocking
36
I'm him!
37
[Chorus: Nas and Keri Hilson]

Chain gleaming

So in God's Son we trust

[Verse 2: Nas]
51
Rubber-grip-holder
52
Reloader
53
Come at me I'ma rip your soldiers
54
In half
55
Silverback ape, nickle-plated mag
56
Young, rich, and flashy
57
Young, bitch, I'm nasty
58
All black clothes til ice lay on me so classy
59
And every time I close my lids
60
I can still see the borough, I can still see the Bridge
61
I can still see the dreams that my niggas ain't never lived to see
62
Tell them angels open the door for me
63
From nine berettas and moving raw
64
To chilling in wine cellars
65
Sticks and humidors
66
That's what I call mature
67
That's what I call a g
68
That's what I call a pimp
69
That's what I call a gangsta
70
To the fullest, shit
71
I'm tryin' to make more cream
72
By every step to September 14th
73
That's my dream
74
So I can be more clean
75
As I grow yearly
76
I can see things more clearly
77
That's why they fear me
78
Let's go!
79
[Chorus: Nas and Keri Hilson]

82
Two-seating
83
Hate him or love him
84

89
'Cause they know I'm gonna give 'em what they want
90

92
[Verse 3: Nas]
93
It's universal apartheid
94
I'm hog-tied
95
The corporate side
96
Blocking y'all from going to stores and buying it
97
First L. A. And Doug Morris was riding wit it
98
But Newsweek article startled big wigs
99
They said, Nas, why is he trying it?
100
My lawyers only see the Billboard charts as winning
101
Forgetting
102
Nas the only true rebel since the beginning
103
Still in musical prison, in jail for the flow
104
Try telling Bob Dylan, Bruce, or Billy Joel
105
They can't sing what's in their soul!
106
So "Untitled" it is
107
I never change nothin', but people remember this
108
If Nas can't say it
109
Think about these talented kids
110
With new ideas
111
Being told what they can and can't spit
112
I can't sit and watch it
113
So shit, I'ma drop it
114
Like it or not
115
You ain't gotta cop it
116
I'm a hustler in the studio
117
Cups of Don Julio
118
No matter what the cd called
119
I'm unbeatable, y'all
120
Let's Go!
121
[Chorus: Nas and Keri Hilson]
