You're The Man

Uh uh, yo They plan was to knock me out the top of the game But I overstand they truth is all lame I hold cannons that shoot balls of flames Right in they fat mouth then I carve my name Nas too real, Nas true king It's however you feel, g'head, you swing Your arms too short to box with God I don't kill soloists only kill squads Fame went to they head, so now it's f**k Nas Yesterday you begged for a deal, today you tough guys I seen it comin' soon as I popped my first bottle I spotted my enemies tryna' do what I do Came in with my style, so I fathered you I kept changin' on the world since barbecue Now you wanna hang with niggas I hung with f**k bitches I hit, it's funny I once said If I, ever make a record I take a check and put something away For a rainy day to make my exit But look at me now, ten years deep Since in the project, crack in my socks weep I never asked to be top of rap's elite Just a ghetto child tryna' learn the traps of the streets But look at me now You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man Now wait a sec', give me time to explain, women and fast cars And diamond rings can poison a rap star It's suicidal, how I smoke in so much la' I saw a dead bird flyin' through a broken sky Wish I could flap wings and fly away To where black kings and Ghana stay So I could get on my flesh right away But that'll be the day when it's peace When my gat don't need to spray When these streets are safe to play s*x with death, indulge in these women Vision my own skeleton swimmin' in eternal fire Broads play with pentagrams in they vagina Like the Exorcist, then they gave birth to my seeds I beg for God's help, why they love hurtin' me? I'm your disciple, a thug certainly I'm the N the A to the S I R If I wasn't I must've been Escobar Forty-five in my waist, starin' at my reflection In the mirror, sittin' still in the chair like my conception When everything around me got cloudy The chair became a king's throne, my destiny found me It's clear why the struggle was so painful Metamorphosis, this is what I changed to and God, I'm so thankful You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man You're da man, you're da man
