Gimme Yours |
Intro: Nas |
Gimme, just gimme, for the NYC |
Gimme what you can’t get back |
Gimme, why don’t you gimme the world |
Gimme what you can’t get back, for the five burroughs |
Verse 1: AZ Yo, it’s hard to show resistance when money-gettin niggas |
need my assistance to stock figures, beyond non-existence |
Fuck keepin my distance, cos bein poor produced persistence |
Plus plea’s, a hundred G’s, I had me blockin out of jail centres |
I’m recognised by the illest of individuals |
Killers and criminals, even willies that’s really into jewels |
But still sceptic on who I cling to Cos every single nigga that swing thru, ain’t my man just cos we mingle |
To mistake shit, even females be feedin off that fake shit |
Filled with envy and hatred but my high hopes help me escape it Temporarily the window world, don’t read the wise |
Verbally nourish me, properly with that inner city, urban GC |
I fucked with those beyond my age bracket |
cos they analyse and mack to get the papers and stack it Leavin no trace to track it, keep on thinkin tappers is accurate |
That mack shit, livin the lifestyle, we filled with black wit |
Chorus: Nas, (AZ) |
Just gimme (Pimp lines and dollar signs) |
Just gimme (Rollin trees, stackin G’s) |
Gimme what you can’t get back (True dat, I thought you knew that) |
Just gimme (Money getters, the high bidders) |
Why don’t you gimme the world (rollin wit us) |
Gimme what you can’t get back, for the five burroughs |
Verse 2: AZ So in God I trust, I lust for a 850-deluxe |
And in too, I touch a million-plus, ain’t much to discuss |
Diamonds and double-digits, Gianni Versace down with lizards |
It’s realism so I visualisin to live it Movin cleverly wit intentions of longevity |
Strong pedigree got me touchin papers, others would never see, G So do the crest in my claw, flourescents |
symbolises the essence, you’re sailin in a sweppervescence |
Drug investments, a street thug’s plug, the insurance, but informers |
they had you wanted for warrants 'fore you get enourmous |
Life’s a performance so players play wit endurance |
cos from war sense, any villain’s willing to get more intense |
They tried to break us but all it did was just make us travel across acres for papers, bonafide money takers |
Cos though we know somehow we all gotta go As long as we’re leavin thievin, we’ll be leavin wit some kind of doe, |
so… |
Chorus: Nas, (AZ) |
Just gimme (Pimp lines and dollar signs) |
Just gimme (Rollin trees, stackin G’s) |
Gimme what you can’t get back (True dat, I thought you knew that) |
Just gimme (Money getters, the high bidders) |
Why don’t you gimme the world (rollin wit us) |
Gimme what you can’t get back (It's real, NYC) |
Just gimme (QB) |
Just gimme (B-K, VT) |
Gimme what you can’t get back (See me, AZ y’all, representin) |
Just gimme (Yeah, the street life is trife life) |
Why don’t you gimme the world (Representin) |
Gimme what you can’t get back (Life's a bitch…) |
