Verse one: nas



Through the lights cameras and actionglamour glitters and gold

I unfold the scrollplant seeds to stampede the globe

When I'm deceasedby then the beast arise like yeast

To conquer peace leaving savages to roam in the streets

Live on the runpolice paying me to give in my gun

Trick my wisdomwith the system that imprisoned my son

Smoke a gold leaf I hold heatnonchalantly

I'm grungybut things I do is real it never haunts me

Whilefunny style niggaz roll in the pile

Rooster heads profile on a bus to riker's isle

Holdin weed inside they pussy with they minds on the

Pretty things in lifeprops is a true thug's wife

It's like a cycleniggaz come homesome'll go in

Do a bulletcome backdo the same shit again

From the womb to the tombpresume the unpredictable

Guns salute liferapidlythat's the ritual



Verse two: raekwon the chef



Perhaps bullets bust niggaz discuss mad money

True lies and white guyswe can see it through the eyes

Catch the most on tapekilos disintegrate

Pyrex potswe breakfiends lickin plates

In the building niggaz buildinglike little children starin

Them older niggaz ain't carin

Sirens circlin fiends are lurkin in your baggage

Ohone's gone nowwhatsmack him in his cabbage

In the woodworkcrack cells bubble like woolworth's

In the projectsrichest niggaz rockin all the real worth

Police questioningrooftop cats invested in

Tradin in they lexus' gs's sendin messages

Two and two makes fourcristal's crazily pour

Gun wars my crew phantom like swords



Verse three: ghostface killer



With the green leathershunded pound snakes and cakes

Fiends found in lakesjeolously jakes we shake

What I strive for is what I live for

Infatuated by material thingsand it's wild like for war

Like somewhere over the rainbowI see a big pot of gold

Future stacks yo I hold

Thousands of cracks bagged up inside the shoebox

Don't keep jack in my lapdon't wanna see tupac

Got two spotsa new lotflooded with rocks

Shoot-outs making me hotcrooked cops bad tony and the ball drop

In the nowI'm bangin niggaz for slide time

Hurry up duke I'm nextshow em mine

And what the fuck is you looking at? 

By the way young bloodhit me off with that green bay hat

Watch your back inside the hallnew niggaz slide through

Like doors yoyou're starin in the mess hall

Your adrenaline runscigarette niggas be swindlin

New jacks surrenderincome home not rememberin

Made bail with different size kicks ona white dress shirt

Lookin gay in the yardand you got hurt

Flashbacksof the day roommop ringer style

Your faggot ass got bashed tryin to turn the dial

You told your boo you was whylin

Once you heard wuout of the blueyour family's from shaolin

High class cooksthrow on vestes out of phone books

Infirmary niggas are screaming"i got drugs!"

Sharpen toothbrushes 190 mixed with baby oil and shit

Your man's in the kitchen stashing ice picks

Well i'ma end this with a big red cherry on top

Menas and rae got the best product on the block
