If I Ruled the World |
| Life… I wonder… |
| Will it take me under… I don’t know |
| Verse One: Nas |
| Imagine smoking weed in the streets without cops harassin |
| Imagine going to court with no trial |
| Lifestyle cruising blue behind my waters |
| No welfare supporters more conscious of the way we raise our daughters |
| Days are shorter, nights are colder |
| Feeling like life is over, these snakes strike like a cobra |
| The world’s hot my son got not evidently |
| It’s elementary, they want us all gone eventually |
| Trooping out of state for a plate knowledge |
| of coke was cooked without the garbage we’d all have the top dollars |
| Imagine everybody flashin, fashion |
| Designer clothes, lacing your click up with diamond vogues |
| Your people holdin dough, no parole |
| No rubbers, go in raw imagine law with no undercovers |
| Just some thoughts for the mind |
| I take a glimpse into time |
| watch the blimp read The World Is Mine |
| Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas |
| If I ruled the world Imagine that |
| I’d free all my sons, I love em love em baby |
| Black diamonds and pearls Could it be, if you could |
| be mine, we’d both shine |
| If I ruled the world Still livin for today, in these last days and times |
| Verse Two: Nas |
| The way to be, paradise like relaxin black, latino and anglo-saxon |
| Armani exchange the reins |
| Cash, Lost Tribe of Shabazz, free at last |
| Brand new whips to crash then we laugh in the iller path |
| The Villa house is for the crew, how we do Trees for breakfast, dime sexes and Benz stretches |
| So many years of depression make me vision |
| The better livin, type of place to raise kids in Open they eyes to the lies history’s told foul |
| But I’m as wise as the old owl, plus the Gold Child |
| Seeing things like I was controlling, click rollin |
| Trickin six digits on kicks and still holdin |
| Trips to Paris, I civilized every savage |
| Gimme one shot I turn trife life to lavish |
| Political prisonner set free, stress free |
| No work release purple M3's and jet skis |
| Feel the wind breeze in West Indies |
| I make Coretta Scott-King mayor the cities and reverse themes to Willies |
| It sounds foul but every girl I meet to go downtown |
| I’d open every cell in Attica send em to Africa |
| Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas |
| If I ruled the world Imagine that |
| I’d free all my sons, I love em love em baby |
| Black diamonds and pearls Could it be, if you could |
| be mine, we’d both shine |
| If I ruled the world Still livin for today, in these last days and times |
| And then we’ll walk right up to the sun |
| Hand in hand |
| We’ll walk right up to the sun |
| We won’t land |
| We’ll walk right up to the sun |
| Hand in hand |
| We’ll walk right up to the sun |
| We won’t land |
| Verse Three: Nas |
| You’d love to hear the story how the thugs live in worry |
| Duck down in car seats, heat’s mandatory |
| Runnin from Jake, gettin chased, hunger for papes |
| These are the breaks many mistakes go down out of state |
| Wait, I had to let it marinate we carry weight |
| Tryin to get laced, flip the ace stack the safe |
| Millionaire plan to keep the gat with the cop camera |
| Makin moves in Atlanta, back and forth scrambler |
| Cause you could have all the chips, be poor or rich |
| Still nobody want a nigga havin shit |
| If I ruled the world and everything in it, sky’s the limit |
| I push a Q-45 Infinit |
| It wouldn’t be no such thing as jealousies or B Felonies |
| Strictly living longevity to the destiny |
| I thought I’d never see but reality struck |
| Better find out before your time’s out, what the fuck??? |
| Chorus: Lauryn Hill, Nas |
| If I ruled the world Imagine that |
| I’d free all my sons, I love em em baby |
| Black diamonds and pearls Could it be, if you could |
| be mine, we’d both shine |
| If I ruled the world Still livin for today, in these last days and times |
| If I ruled the world, if I ruled, if I ruled Imagine that |
| I’d free all my sons, if I ruled, if I ruled |
| I love em love em baby |
| Black diamonds and pearls, black dimaonds Could it be, if you could |
| black diamonds be mine, we’d both shine |
| If I ruled the world Still livin for today, in these last days and times |
| If I ruled the world, if I ruled |
| if I ruled, I’d free all my sons |
| black diamonds, I love em love em baby |
| Black diamonds and pearls, if I ruled |
| If I ruled the world |
| If I ruled the world |
| I love em love em baby! |
