[Nas]
2
Damn! Look how muh-fuckers use a nigga
3
Just use me for whatever the fuck they want
4
I don't get to say shit
5
Just grab me, just do what the fuck they want
6
Sell me, throw me away
7
Niggaz just don't give a fuck about a nigga like me right?
8
Like I'm a f... I'm a gun, shit
9
It's like I'm a motherfuckin gun
10
I can't believe this shit....
11
Word up.. (word up..)
12
I seen some cold nights and bloody days
13
They grab and me bullets spray
14
They use me wrong so I sing this song 'til this day
15
My body is cold steel for real
16
I was made to kill, that's why they keep me concealed
17
Under car seats they sneak me in clubs
18
Been in the hands of mad thugs
19
They feed me when they load me with mad slugs
20
Seventeen precisely, one in my head
21
They call me Desert Eagle, semi-auto with lead
22
I'm seven inches four pounds, been through so many towns
23
Ohio to Little Rock to Canarsie, livin harshly
24
Beat up and battered, they pull me out
25
I watch as niggaz scattered, makin me kill
26
But what I feel it never mattered
27
When I'm empty I'm quiet, findin myself fiendin to be fired
28
A broken safety, niggaz place me in shelves
29
Under beds, so I beg for my next owner to be a thoroughbred
30
Keep me full up with hollow heads
31
[Chorus: Nas (repeat 2X)]
32
How you like me now? I go blaow
33
It's that shit that moves crowds makin every ghetto foul
34
I might have took your first child
35
Scarred your life, crippled your style
36
I gave you power
37
I made you buck wild
38
[Nas]
39
Always I'm in some shit, my abdomen is the clip
40
The barrel is my dick, uncircumcised
41
Pull my skin back and cock me, I bust off when they unlock me
42
Results of what happens to niggaz shock me
43
I see niggaz bleedin runnin from me in fear, stunningly tears
44
Fall down the eyes of these so-called tough guys, for years
45
I've been used in robberies, givin niggaz heart to follow me
46
Placin peoples in graves, funerals made cause I was sprayed
47
I was laid in a shelf, with a grenade
48
Met a wrecked-up tech with numbers on his chest that say
49
Five-two-oh-nine-three-eight-five and zero
50
Had a serial defaced, hopin one day, police would place
51
Where he came from, a name or some sort of person to claim him
52
Tired of murderin, made him wanna be a plain gun
53
But yo I had some other plans, like the next time the beef is on
54
I make myself jam right in my owner's hand
55
[Chorus]
56
[Nas]
57
Yo, weeks went by and I'm surprised
58
Still stuck in the shelf with all the things that an outlaw hides
59
Besides me it's bullets, two vests and then a nine
60
There's a grenade in a box, and that tech that kept cryin
61
Cause he ain't been cleaned in a year, he's rusty as clear
62
He's bout to fall to pieces, cause of his murder career
63
Yo, I can hear somebody comin in, open the shelf
64
His eyes bubblin, he said, "It was on"
65
I felt his palm troubled him shakin
66
Somebody stomped him out, his dome was achin
67
He placed me on his waist, the moment I've been waitin
68
My creation was for blacks to kill blacks
69
It's gats like me that accidentally, go off, makin niggaz memories
70
But this time, it's done intentionally
71
He walked me outside, saw this cat
72
Cocked me back, said, "Remember me?"
73
He pulled the trigger but I held on, it felt wrong
74
Knowing niggaz is waiting in hell for 'im
75
He squeezed harder, I didn't budge, sick of the blood
76
Sick of the thugs, sick of wrath of the, next man's grudge
77
What the other kid did was pull out, no doubt
78
A newer me in better shape, before he lit out, he lead the chase
79
My owner fell to the floor, his wig split so fast
80
I didn't know he was hit, it's over with
81
Heard mad niggaz screamin, niggaz runnin, cops is comin
82
Now I'm happy, until I felt somebody else grab me
83
Damn!
