Big Nas - Nas

A man reproduces himself, through his child\nSo when he leave here, he can just smile\nBut I see fit to stay here a while\nMaybe buy a timeshare somewhere\nRock bum wear, beach chair\nWrite a book each year\nYou can write yourself out of your blessings\nWreck your Lambo the first day just by driving too reckless\nTime is too precious\nThese some obvious lessons\nPlease remind me to watch my step while I balance on edges\nSki on the slopes of life, slide down the ave at night\nWatchin' em graffin' graffiti on walls that’s the sight\nCar’s from Germany, I be pushin' the fastest type\nLook into real estate brother, I need the askin' price\nImagine another rapper making me perspire\nI got more styles and more flows, plus I’m much flyer\nI got more heights to reach, but I’m already higher\nI’m already on to the next thing\nPeace and Bless King\nPeace and Bless King\nBig Nas\nOld money, new money\nRap money, tech money, flex money\nWhat’s next? You funny\nMe, myself, I’m the illest alive\nI could do a whole album on how it feel to survive\nMy daughter’s a businesswoman, I’m so proud of her\nMy son he’s almost twelve and he’s so knowledgeable\nNew music, new content, new programming\nI ran the gamut\nGot my hands in everything like kids with bad manners\nSave the high school banter\nAt night school you studied my life lookin' for answers\nI hear my calling, heart poundin' out my chest\nWish I could bring back X\nGod Bless\nI don’t practice, I don’t remember my lines\nI’m just here so I don’t get fined\nI’m athletic with poetics\nThese are alpha male alphabetics\nNever touched the Rolling Stone cover but I don’t sweat it\nImagine another rapper making me perspire\nI got more styles and more flows, plus I’m much flyer\nI got more heights to reach, but I’m already higher\nI’m already on to the next thing\nPeace and Bless King\nPeace and Bless King
