    Prophetic; two of Saddam's sons were killed by US forces in 2003 before he was hanged ..

    Unless that verse is copied from an older song, Nas' verse came after both sadaam and his sons were killed.

    That Alicia Keys unplugged dropped in 2005

    Yeah, Brooks Brothers overcoat, know the ropes, smooth is holdin' those
    Briefcases, silk ties, slick as them older folks
    Silver fo'-fo', got no,
    My chauffer driver just left some of my colleagues smokin' that Cali
    Caught a glimpse of myself in the Barney's shop window
    Kinda' see my father's features creepin' in a little
    Got an office on Broadway, business in Jamaica
    Tell my daughter try the hardest so the best schools'll take her
    And I'm late to a date with my wife, I realize
    I stopped to shop, had to get her some type surprise
    And I'm walkin' through it, chaos is all around me
    But ? got me, no fear, 'til the fire pride stop me

    One of my fav Nas songs

    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.

    I was gonna post this its one of my favorite quotes from NAS it's like he starts to zone out at that particular moment, definitely one my favorite tracks from him he couldn't of a chose a better song to end the album with.

    Saddam's sons - Uday and Qussay Hussein died in July 2003. Alicia Keys's 'Streets of New York' ft. Nas and Rakim on the "The Diary of Alicia Keys" LP(track on UK version only) was released Dec. 2003.
    The Hussein brothers death occured before Nas's verse was was spit.

    It's still a dope bar, though

    In order for him to be the Don, Nas had to go
    The Gam-B-I-N-O rules I understood
    What y'all want, see, I already had
    The Gift and The Curse? ? that ? , the first shall be last
    I'm a man's man, a rapper's rapper
    G-O-D S-O-N, they'll be none after
    I was Scarface, Jay was Manolo
    It hurt me when I had to ? him and his whole squad for dolo

    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

    This ? touchs me

    So many kids I knew, never knew what Pap was
    That's why I show my pop love
    He was still around when I ? up
    He could have left
    My moms pregnant shock to death but stayed
    Watch me crawl till I took my first step, to the first grade
    To my first fist fight
    Right behind me he would stand
    No matter how big or tall he made me fight you like a man
    Throw dirt in your eye, swing my right scoop your ass and slam
    He watched me so I wouldn't get jumped by shorty's fam

    We come from where murders occur often on late nights
    ? is high and they eyes be red as 2 brakelights
    Medical marijuana, Henny bottles, and Grey Goose
    Semi’s and shottys on deck, everybody’s face screwed...

    ...No clip in your Glock, you ain’t prepared to fire
    We call that riding with no air in your tire
    You’re flattened, it’s a pattern after scrapping
    What usually happen, death on arrival

    Who desperate to arrest us young, benevolent hardheads
    Abercrombie & Fitch rockin', wrist glistenin' marksman
    Hitchcock of Hip-Hop since Big Pop departed
    The project logic is still salute the dead, Glocks spit
    Pour some juice out for those in Manchester, Beaumount

    Every fed jail where all my dawgs lurk...

    What if I told you that AZ didnt exist
    And I put him there, played it like a ventriloquist
    Cause ? spit fake ? and y'all respect it
    I spit that real ? and y'all won't buy the record
    What if me and the rapper homie was really cool
    And we used that whole thing as a media tool
    would you say I was a sucka or say I was savvy
    If I told you ? 's that me and K wasnt married
    What if Jungle wrote my ? , and I'm really illiterate
    And the whole Nas catalogue was just an experiment

    ? all you ? , easy
    I be on the golf cart, sleepy
    Y’all beneath me
    Y’all be at the ? shop, pawnin’ watches
    Obnoxious, can’t stop us, we shottas
    Say you killin’ Pablo? Impossible
    Nonsense, preposterous, bizarre at best
    Unfulfilled promises
    I feel intelligence is my wealth
    However, how enormous is Nas’ pockets is a pop quiz to gossipers

    I'm done. This ? the GOAT.

    The last of the ? genre like...
    ? can't be serious
    Still the grittiest, point blank period
    Flow tight as a midget's closet
    As tight as a prison block is
    No sight of po-lice, when we riot
    Fighting the system fire
    Get quiet, when I'm approaching
    Get tires, jump out the roses
    Sip Meyer's Rum out in open
    I'm smoking that hydro, choking
    I'm scoping, my eyes are on you
    Don't reach cause I tried to warn you
    No street corner Nas won't come to
    To bomb you, 4 5's will harm you
    Eccentric, I'm live but calm too
    Cordial, but crazy cautious
    Roll through with some crazy gorgeous
    Hoes, bodies like lady horses
    Like...a whole stampede serious
    Y'all ? is funny like Eddie Murphy's "Delirious"

    Next thing you know he packing
    So then I asked him
    What's this white ? on that plate and your face?
    Papa why you butt ass from the waist
    And who's this lady I'm facing
    Dark skin you're not my mommy
    He grabbed me up to run some smooth words by me
    Promised things that he would buy me
    If I kept my mouth closed and don't tell mommy
    He said one day I'll understand little me
    What's in you, is inside me

    That just shows how good Nas is... I mean that's not even my favorite bars from that song. Daymn.

    These hot-headed youngsters, always get into trouble
    Reactin' before thinkin', they easily irritated
    And murder's premeditated, it's a fact that we sinkin'
    When we should be climbin', in a nutshell, it's just jail
    Drug sales, liquor and diamonds, ? rewindin'
    Instead of movin' forward, to blow up so what's the science?

    Political thugs in shark suits persuade us to pull triggers
    In army boots, yelling "Join the armed forces!"
    We lost the Vietnam War, intoxicated poisons
    Needles in arms of veterans instead of bigger fortunes
    There's still a lot of ? crawling in the corporate offices
    War in the ghetto, we ? in a barrel, they torture us
    They won't be serving the beast too long
    The murderers wearing police uniforms, Confederate flags I burn

    ...

    Turning nothing into something is ? work
    And you get nothing without struggle and hard work

    Oh you didn't, wanna know whose life Was Written
    The life I'm livin
    The ice the women
    The kites that sendin to lifeless biddin
    The streets to prison
    I touch you then buck you
    Heats be spittin
    La-ser, AR fifteen doors come down
    Jaws is broke, your whole crew is coffin bound
    Your ? , your man, lieutenant, your boss get found..


    LOL..
    At one point NAS was borderline terrorizing the ROC..
