nas - surviving the times (original) كلمات أغنية

[intro]
green lantern
please be clear, this is an invasion
this is a motherf_cking invasion
this an invasion
green lantern in the lab, the invasion
it’s a f_cking invasion you b_st_rds!

[verse 1]
i was young, i was surviving the times
waitin’ for my moment, i was destined to shine
little ray had an nsx, i was hopin’ i’m next
wantin’ bracelets, never had a_
i was young, i was surviving the times
waitin’ for my moment, i wa_i wa_i wa_
i was young, i was surviving the times
waitin’ for my moment, i was destined to shine
little ray had an nsx, i was hopin’ i’m next
wantin’ bracelets, never had a rope on my neck
unless i was holdin’ taiyeh chain, rest in peace
even though that night you flipped on us, you warned us
if you came back and we still on the corners, we goners
movin’ on to move your arm in your watch
to another time on the block
‘cause this 40 side, where they say shorty rhyme
tragedy, he used to come through all the time
i’m talkin’ juice crew, not what the word define
he had a sister named erin, for sure was fine
that was my first crush, soon i bought my first mic
wrote my first verse, i was about nine
i was about mine, fantasize house buyin’
met paul, he wore some big glasses
him and melquan took me where g rap lived
i was happy, just gettin’ some answers
i ain’t even know what a record advance was
i’m seein’ hoes s_x in the studio bathroom
with rap dudes, thinking, “wow, she moved me!”
same girl then, right now’s a groupie
back then, she was like the star in a movie
large jewelry and expensive gucci
next stop, paid in full posse recruits me
knew they were some millionaires, their ropes were dookie
eric b man lookin’ like–touch it, he shoot me
ra didn’t show, i get to record demos at attempts to blow
how did they know? sixteen years later, here i go
[chorus]
oh
can it be we run out of time
you’re alive
oh oh
in the streets we’re living and die
when it’s your time, you will know ’cause it ain’t hard to tell

[verse 2]
i’m with akinyele in the street, tryin’ to get us a deal
g rap tried to get us to sign to cold chill’
but fly ty didn’t have the contract we wanted
clark kent just signed das, he didn’t want us
russell said i sounded like g, the n_gga fronted
reef and matty c offered me a little money
sh_t a little funny, feel a little laughter
rebel of hip_hop comin’ through a white rapper
my boy, mc serch, nevertheless
took me to columbia, back then cbs
chris schwartz, ruffhouse, he was the best, man
now buggin’, because the label had just dropped def jam
could you picture russell needin’ a check, man?
but he smart, he plotted a plan for polygram
life is ill again, life’s a movie
then the roster’s cypress hill, nas, and fugees
but back to the matter at hand
‘cause ten years ago, we all strived to be twenty_five
some cats didn’t make it alive
dated some stars, but respect their privacy
copped mad cars, layin’ back in the driver’s seat
held myself down, just steerin’ the wheel
here i am, completed my whole record deal
[chorus]
oh
can it be we run out of time
you’re alive
oh oh
in the streets we livin’ and dyin’
when it’s your time, you will know ’cause it ain’t hard to tell
it ain’t hard to tell
it ain’t hard to tell (it ain’t hard to tell)
it ain’t hard to tell
it ain’t hard to tell (it ain’t hard to tell)
it ain’t hard to tell
it ain’t hard to tell (it ain’t hard to tell)
it_it ain’t_it_it ain’t_it_it_it_it_it_it ain’t hard to tell

[outro]
the evil g_nius, green lantern
