Lyrics:
At thirteen, I was already hooked
Try'na get people to see my demo's but nobody looked
All of this time that I took, pressure and effort I put
Image if I took
enough
I pray I can hold the game for as long as you man can hold a grudge
Years went by I know it's fucked, I had to hold it up for mummy on my own
I
purposeful I’m searching for the spirit world
Instead I’m in the netherworld surrounded by all my mistakes
Hells been making me contemplate
My life is full
for this
People in power sit back and watch them slaughter us
Mr. President I assume it was negligence
The streets upside down, I'm here to represent
[Chorus]
[Nas]
I'm just a black man why why'all made it so hard damn
Niggaz gotta go create their own job
Mr. Mayor imagine if this was your backyard
to live and have regrets
And another to sit and just stare at death
I wish the best for you, I really tried
I'm moving on, I'm alive
Day by day I can
to live and have regrets
And another to sit and just stare at death
I wish the best for you, I really tried
I'm moving on, I'm alive
Day by day I can
'm really just that much beta
A stronger version of self really all that's behind each layer
That's why... I only get better each time I peel off
This is
into this atmosphere
Can you help me, come here
I'm sorry I'm mixed
My deoxyribonucleic acid is stitched with Caucasian, Asian, and African American

then if you had a car
You was the Chi Town version of Baby
And I was just a virgin a baby
One of the reasons I looked up to him crazy
I used to love
swappin' your demos my licks are
Legit, sit back and relax and enjoy my ride lets take a little trip
to that other side -
If what y'all want is to piss me
dudes doing rap
I'm all alone and I don't care
I knew it was gonna suck ass when I got here
If you's a gunner you can get yourself shot here
In
back-back then-then if you had a car
You was the Chi-Town version of Baby
And I was just a virgin, a baby
One of the reasons I looked up to him crazy

Sitting on a pavement
Sitting on a pavement
Sitting on a pavement
Sitting on a city pavement

If I walk
And drive
Long as you there for the ride
The ride
The ride
The ride
Just as long as you here by my side
And I might pull up
When I pull up
She can't wait
calls as if no one were
Home
We'd rather not be bothered, content to live off bread alone
See, our appetites have been altered by a world we made our own

Bask in the glory she loves a good story
She sees all the views on her page as a win
I sit back and cringe, as I look at angel from heaven
Yeah

With what we see on the streets
It's kind of hard to believe
