The past present nigga the future, proper
42
The holy trinity of hip-hop is us
43
We give, Dre his props BUT that's where it stops
44
It's the Roc
45
[Chorus]
46
I know, you got your eyes on me
47
I feel you watching me
48
But it ain't hard to see that you can't see me
49
You try, but what you think you saw
50
Ain't what you thought you saw
51
You better off not looking at all
52
(Everywhere that I go, ain't the same as before)
53
(People I used to know, just don't know me no mo')
54
(But everywhere that I go, I got people I know)
55
(Who got people they know, so I suggest you lay low)
56
I'm still on top of the game
57
Still dropping flames, still cock and aim
58
Still at the top had the Roc for the fame
59
over setbacks, there's been a lot since I came
60
You seen it all, how I got, how I gained
61
The momentum when it dropped, how I got through the pain
62
When I roll and shock, they watched me reclaim
63
the streets, they made a special spot for my name
64
Dre, haters wanna stop to my reign
65
But the music lives in me, every drop in my veins
66
The pride and the pain
67
All the way back from the rise of my name
68
See the world clear through the eyes of the mane
69
See the world cheer for the rhymes that I gave
70
When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane
71
The eyes that I played
72
The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher
73
[Chorus]
74
I'm "Rated R," my brain contains graphics things
75
It turn traumatic teens into addicts, and fiends
76
It's like, watching a movie through a panoramic screen
77
Which means, I can see the whole planet in the scene
78
Cash is the topic, the object, a fatter pocket
79
Some take the crack and chop it, but those that haven't got it
80
take away the added profit, it's catastrophic
81
I take the gat and cock it, and I'll sit back and watch it
82
These New York streets is ugly, I keep it gully
83
The world is mine and can't nobody keep it from me
84
Yo, my neighborhood is never sunny
85
In the place where the number one cause of death is money
86
You can try coping
87
I've seen enough shit to leave your frame of mind broken
88
I'm still alive and scoping
89
Be another hundred years 'til my skies close in
90
And I'ma die with my eyes open, the watcher
91
[Chorus]
