Big Nas
(Hit-Boy)
A man reproduces himself, through his child
So when he leave here, he can just smile
But I see fit to stay here a while
Maybe buy a timeshare somewhere
Rock bum wear, beach chair, write a book each year
You can write yourself out of your blessings
Wreck your Lambo the first day just by driving too reckless
Time is too precious, these some obvious lessons
Please remind me to watch my step while I balance on edges
Ski on the slopes of life, slide down the ave at night
Watchin' em graffin' graffiti on walls that's the sight
Car's from Germany, I be pushin' the fastest type
Look into real estate brother, I need the askin' price
Imagine another rapper making me perspire
I got more styles and more flows, plus I'm much flyer
I got more heights to reach, but I'm already higher
I'm already on to the next thing
Peace and bless king
Peace and bless king
Big Nas, old money, new money
Rap money, tech money, flex money
What's next? You funny
Me, myself, I'm the illest alive
I could do a whole album on how it feel to survive
My daughter's a businesswoman, I'm so proud of her
My son he's almost twelve and he's so knowledgeable
New music, new content, new programming, I ran the gamut
Got my hands in everything like kids with bad manners
Save the high school banter
At night school you studied my life lookin' for answers
I hear my calling, heart poundin' out my chest
Wish I could bring back X, God Bless
I don't practice, I don't remember my lines
I'm just here so I don't get fined
I'm athletic with poetics
These are alpha male alphabetics
Never touched the Rolling Stone cover but I don't sweat it
Imagine another rapper making me perspire
I got more styles and more flows, plus I'm much flyer
I got more heights to reach, but I'm already higher
I'm already on to the next thing
Peace and bless king
Peace and bless king
