[Intro: Nas (Lauryn Hill singing in the background)]
2
Life..... I wonder....
3
Will it take me under.... I don't know
4
[Verse One: Nas]
5
Imagine smoking weed in the streets without cops harassin
6
Imagine going to court with no trial
7
Lifestyle cruising blue behind my waters
8
No welfare supporters more conscious of the way we raise our daughters
9
Days are shorter, nights are colder
10
Feeling like life is over, these snakes strike like a cobra
11
The world's hot my son got not evidently
12
It's elementary, they want us all gone eventually
13
Trooping out of state for a plate knowledge
14
of coke was cooked without the garbage we'd all have the top dollars
15
Imagine everybody flashin, fashion
16
Designer clothes, lacing your click up with diamond vogues
17
Your people holdin dough, no parole
18
No rubbers, go in raw imagine law with no undercovers
19
Just some thoughts for the mind
20
I take a glimpse into time
21
watch the blimp read "The World Is Mine"
22
[Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas]
23
If I ruled the world
24
Imagine that
25
I'd free all my sons, I love em love em baby
26
Black diamonds and pearls
27
Could it be, if you could
28
be mine, we'd both shine
29
If I ruled the world
30
Still livin for today, in
31
these last days and times
32
[Verse Two: Nas]
33
The way to be, paradise like relaxin black, latino and anglo-saxon
34
Armani exchange the reins
35
Cash, Lost Tribe of Shabazz, free at last
36
Brand new whips to crash then we laugh in the iller path
37
The Villa house is for the crew, how we do
38
Trees for breakfast, dime sexes and Benz stretches
39
So many years of depression make me vision
40
The better livin, type of place to raise kids in
41
Open they eyes to the lies history's told foul
42
But I'm as wise as the old owl, plus the Gold Child
43
Seeing things like I was controlling, click rollin
44
Trickin six digits on kicks and still holdin
45
Trips to Paris, I civilized every savage
46
Gimme one shot I turn trife life to lavish
47
Political prisonner set free, stress free
48
No work release purple M3's and jet skis
49
Feel the wind breeze in West Indies
50
I make Coretta Scott-King mayor the cities and reverse themes to Willies
51
It sounds foul but every girl I meet to go downtown
52
I'd open every cell in Attica send em to Africa
53
[Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas]
54
If I ruled the world
55
Imagine that
56
I'd free all my sons, I love em love em baby
57
Black diamonds and pearls
58
Could it be, if you could
59
be mine, we'd both shine
60
If I ruled the world
61
Still livin for today, in
62
these last days and times
63
And then we'll walk right up to the sun
64
Hand in hand
65
We'll walk right up to the sun
66
We won't land
67
We'll walk right up to the sun
68
Hand in hand
69
We'll walk right up to the sun
70
We won't land
71
[Verse Three: Nas]
72
You'd love to hear the story how the thugs live in worry
73
Duck down in car seats, heat's mandatory
74
Runnin from Jake, gettin chased, hunger for papes
75
These are the breaks many mistakes go down out of state
76
Wait, I had to let it marinate we carry weight
77
Tryin to get laced, flip the ace stack the safe
78
Millionaire plan to keep the gat with the cop camera
79
Makin moves in Atlanta, back and forth scrambler
80
Cause you could have all the chips, be poor or rich
81
Still nobody want a nigga havin shit
82
If I ruled the world and everything in it, sky's the limit
83
I push a Q-45 Infinit
84
It wouldn't be no such thing as jealousies or B Felonies
85
Strictly living longevity to the destiny
86
I thought I'd never see but reality struck
87
Better find out before your time's out, what the fuck??
88
[Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas]
89
If I ruled the world
90
Imagine that
91
I'd free all my sons, I love em em baby
92
Black diamonds and pearls
93
Could it be, if you could
94
be mine, we'd both shine
95
If I ruled the world
96
Still livin for today, in
97
these last days and times
98
If I ruled the world, if I ruled, if I ruled
99
Imagine that
100
I'd free all my sons, if I ruled, if I ruled
101
I love em love em baby
102
Black diamonds and pearls, black dimaonds
103
Could it be, if you could
104
black diamonds
105
be mine, we'd both shine
106
If I ruled the world
107
Still livin for today, in
108
these last days and times
109
If I ruled the world, if I ruled
110
if I ruled, I'd free all my sons
111
black diamonds, I love em love em baby
112
Black diamonds and pearls, if I ruled
113
If I ruled the world
114
If I ruled the world
115
I love em love em baby!!
