God's Son

Yeah, uh

It's da return of da boss
A true nigga, I'm back with gold in my cross
I'm da hip hop makeover
It's a takeover
Influenced by Nas, now you know the hard life made soldiers
From a broke nigga, to a nigga in em Range Rovers
I got high off illmatic still I stay sober
Nas flow for da streets
It's like magic when he flow on da beat
Nasir Jones got da throne, a true MC
God son across the belly, you niggas lost already
Let's take it back to da struggle
Back to 95, back to da hustle
I was five years old, helpless! Looking for trouble
My suffering days
Seven years later, nothing changed
I got dreams of getting rich
Nas told me I can when God son hit
I respect a real nigga who look at life as a real picture
When you build, ya niggas build with ya
Some rappers rhyme but they not saying shit
The garbage that comes from their mouth when they spit
Rims, cribs, how much money he make
Why don't you sing some songs which niggas from da gutter can relate
God son flow for the streets for over twelve years
And he still here rocking dem gold chains and Nike airs
From illmatic to stillmatic, nothing but classics
Masterpiece for da streets when times got drastic
Look who I came from, guns, drugs, hanging with killas
Still I gave it all up, I no longer wanted to be a misled nigga
I learned to think for myself
It's not about da hype in life but I still got da three stars strapped to my belt
You can't imagine all da pain I've felt
But it made me stronger in da end
And if I could I'd go through it again
I ain't no fake
Believe me when I say, I'll do whatever it takes to keep my family safe
I'll trade my life for theirs
When they cry I'll wipe their tears
Nas taught me that if you don't got respect the whole world collapse
And that's a fact
They say hip hop's dead
Since Nasir Jones not dead, it's not dead
I told you niggas

Yeah, uh
I send this out to the street disciple of rap, the God son, the Nastradamus, the king to Queens Bridge
I'm talking bout Nasir Escobar Jones, the man himself, Nas
The greatest rapper alive
Some niggas need to respect that though
For real
