    If money's ya religion sky's the limit live life
    Numbers is big business makes the poor live trife
    The glimmers of hope provoke those without dollars to dream
    Through your existence become wealthy, knowledge is king

    Words of power, because of it the cops hate ya
    The government watchin all of those who thuggin it
    They wanna lock us up cause they kids are lovin it
    Not knowin that most rappers are straight ass
    The shots ring out, whenever we clash

    ...

    Why would they ? with a don, Jehovah witness
    Him and his co-defendants, I eat 'em like Lucky Charms
    With two percent low fat milk, five percent pro black built

    Why didn't you just post a link to the song if you just going to paste all the verses? Lol.

    The following bars are some of my all time favorite in rap, however:

    "Years back, I reminiscence and remember, sitting on wood benches
    Gave me splinters, just a baby ? , thankful
    When them killers came through, guns out, moving
    I thank the ones who said shorty go home, we about to be shooting"

    what crazy is i have heard this a million times but just reading it out of context..... it is a very powerful visual.

    Life is short is what some ? said
    Not if you measure life by how one lives and what he did
    And funny how these black-killer companies is makin' money off us
    Fast food, cola, soda, Skull and Bone crosses, it's all poison

    ...

    Sisters up in my hood try to do good given choices
    When pregnant, drop out of school or have abortions
    Stop workin', hopin' that they find a man that will support them
    Up late night, on they mother's cordless
    Thinkin' a perm or bleachin' cream
    Will make them better when they're gorgeous


    ...

    The Chinamen built the railroad, the Indians saved the Pilgrim
    And in return the Pilgrim killed 'em
    They call it Thanksgiving, I call your holiday "hell-day"
    Cause I'm from poverty, neglected by the wealthy


    ...

    Rappers only talk about ki's, it's all poison
    How could you call yourself MC's
    You ain't poison
    Think about the kids you mislead, with the poison


    ...

    I contemplate, believing in karma
    Those on top could just break and won't be eating tomorrow
    I know some ? who be sleeping on ? ' dreams. They leave
    When that ? blow, she the first ? on her knees
    Knowing dudes that's neglecting their seeds
    Instead of taking care of em, they're spending money on trees
    I pray for you, deadbeat daddies
    Cause when them kids get grown it's too late for you
    Now you old and you getting ? on

    Real men we have a code of ethics
    No question
    No jealousies
    No feminine tendencies
    We expecting
    No gossip
    No phony logic
    No counting your ? pocket
    Spare no expense for legal defense
    If your ? locked up
    No keeping tabs
    On who was the last who looked out
    Selfishness
    That's a character flaw
    No holding out
    Yo what happened to the honor
    You're dealing with
    Sensitive Primadonna drama
    Teflon love
    For my dudes who solid

    Through the lights cameras and action, glamor glitters and gold
    I unfold the scroll, plant seeds to stampede the globe
    When I'm deceased, by then the beast arise like yeast
    To conquer peace leaving savages to roam in the streets
    Live on the run, police paying me to give in my gun
    Trick my wisdom with the system that imprisoned my son

    Perseverance, see the fake hustler rapper
    To them, it hurts to hear this
    Oh you went platinum, yeah that's nice
    Now let me see you do the same thing twice
    Three times, four times, then a couple of mo' times
    Please, you're Amateur Night, it's Showtime

    "Take It In Blood" is indeed one giant quotable. Arguably my favorite Nas joint.

    So I comes back home, nobody's out but Shorty Doo-?
    Rolling two phillies together in the Bridge we call 'em oo-wops
    He said "Nas, ? cold be busting off the roof
    So I wear a bullet proof and pack a black trey-deuce"
    He inhaled so deep, shut his eyes like he was sleep
    Started coughing, one eye peeked to watch me speak
    I sat back like The Mack, my army suit was black
    We was chilling on these benches where he pumped his loose cracks
    I took the L when he passed it, this little bastard
    Keeps me blasted and starts talking mad ?
    I had to school him, told him don't let ? fool him
    Cause when the pistol blows the one that's murdered be the cool one
    Tough luck when ? are struck, families ? up
    Coulda caught your man, but didn't look when you bucked up
    Mistakes happen, so take heed never bust up
    At the crowd catch him solo, make the right man bleed
    Shorty's laugh was cold blooded as he spoke so foul
    Only twelve trying to tell me that he liked my style
    Then I rose, wiping the blunt's ash from my clothes
    Then froze only to blow the herb smoke through my nose
    And told my little man I'mma go I spose
    Left some jewels in his skull that he can sell if he chose
    Words of wisdom from Nas: try to rise up above
    Keep an eye out for Jake, Shorty ? , one love

    The scene from "Belly" came from this verse..

    I just burnt my American flag
    And sent three ? nazis to hell and I'm sad
    Ugh, I'm loading tips in my mag
    To send these redneck biggots to some death in a bag
    Choke him out with his confederate flag
    I know these devils are mad
    Little rap fans who live way out in safe suburbia
    Would you stand with me, a United States murdurer?

    I'm capable of anything, my imagination can give me wings
    To fly like doves over the streets watchin' many things
    Kids walkin' home from school on drug block missionaries
    Pass out papers that read: Love ?
    See faces, cases, judges, juries, masons, lawyers and cops
    I watch because every thugs face is my mirror
    But this was one in particular
    This kid he was the vintage stick em up pro
    16 years old, did his jail sentence, nowhere to go
    Every mornin calls his comrad to come and get him to smoke
    He insane, already gone mad
    Blames himself for his setbacks
    Dangerous street corners where his sets at
    Slang from dust to dawn, detectives act like they maniacs
    Chasin' him, his ass was flarin'
    Smokin' like a chimney, on really, of course he not carin'
    He need a place to go to keep his mind expandin'
    I give him a helpin' hand, bring him out to Thugz Mansion

    I'm ? '? man, Chopard wristband
    New York crown jewel, no if-and's, top five
    I'm the one, two, three, four and the fifth man
    Smoke a ? in Istanbul on quicksand
    I'm five mics, five points of light
    Hit the stage like a meteorite
    They wanna all hear ether tonight, but we ain't beefin tonight
    That's history, so now when you mention me
    Say I'm a mystery

    These old heads got stories of days they were kings
    I pray secret indictments dont take way they dreams (Jimmy Hench)
    You 16 you can do 20 come home young (Chi Ali)
    Catch 20 years when you 40 holmes ya done. (Big Meech)

    But still it was beautiful, the love was mutual
    Even tho me n Jung aint show up to ya funeral
    I hold ya son's hand, tell em he the man
    we love you, ya pops was king, you have a whole lot to live up to.

    I think 'Where's the Love' will go down as one of my favorite Nas songs.

    Baby girl she's always talkin name droppin hangin late
    Drinkin smokin hates her baby daddy, craves shoppin
    E poppin Ecstasy takin, won't finish her education
    Best friend she keeps changin, stuck with limitations
    Lustin men, many hotels, Fendi Chanel
    With nothin in her bank account frontin she do well
    Her kid suffers he don't get that love he deserve
    He the Sun, she the Earth, single mom, even worse
    No job never stay workin, mad purty
    Shorty they call her the brain surgeon
    Time flyin she the same person, never matures
    All her friends married doin well
    She's in the streets yakkety yakkin like she was 12
    Honey is twenty-seven, argues fights
    Selfish in her own right, polite, guess she's in her second childhood

    Got damn at this bein spit in 2002 and still true. Got damn.

    Yo, dude is 31, livin in his moms crib
    Ex-convict, was paroled there after his long bid
    Cornrows in his hair, still slingin, got a crew
    They break his moms furniture, watchin Comicview
    Got babies by different ladies high smokin L's
    In the same spot he stood since eighty-five, well
    When his stash slow, he be crazy
    Saved by his mom's, hit her on her payday
    Junior high school dropout, teachers never cared
    They was paid just to show up and leave, no one succeeds
    So he moves with his peers, different blocks, different years
    Sittin on, different benches like it's musical chairs
    All his peoples moved on in life, he's on the corners at night
    With young dudes it's them he wanna be like
    It's sad but it's fun to him right? He never grew up
    31 and can't give his youth up, he's in his second childhood


    "2nd Childhood"..
