Hip Hop Is Dead |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Hip hop just died this mornin' |
| And she’s dead, she’s dead |
| Yeah, niggas smoke, laugh, party, and die in the same corner |
| Get cash, live fast, body their man’s mama |
| Rich-ass niggas is ridin' with three llamas |
| Revenge in their eyes, Hennessey and the ganja |
| Word to the wise with villain state of minds |
| Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind |
| Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind |
| (Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind) |
| Whenever, if ever, I roll up, it’s sown up |
| Any ghetto will tell ya Nas helped grow us up |
| My face once graced promotional Sony trucks |
| Hundred million in billin', I helped build 'em up |
| Gave my nigga my right, I could have gave left |
| So like my girl Foxy, a nigga went Def |
| So, nigga, who’s your top ten? |
| Is it MC Shan? |
| Is it MC Ren? |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Hip hop just died this mornin' |
| And she’s dead, she’s dead |
| The bigger the cap, the bigger the peelin' |
| Come through, something ill, missin' the ceilin' |
| What influenced my raps? |
| Stick-ups and killings |
| Kidnappings, project buildings, drug dealings |
| Criticize that, why is that? |
| 'Cuz Nas rap is compared to legitimized crap |
| 'Cuz we love to talk on ass we gettin' |
| Most intellectuals will only half listen |
| So you can’t blame jazz musicians |
| Or David Stern with his NBA fashion issues |
| Oh, I they like me in my white tee |
| You can’t ice me, we here for life, B |
| On my second marriage, hip hop’s my first wifey |
| And for that we not takin' it lightly |
| If hip hop should die, we die together |
| Bodies in the morgue lie together |
| All together now |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| If hip hop should die before I wake |
| I’ll put an extended clip inside of my AK |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Roll to every station, murder the DJ |
| Everybody sound the same, commercialize the game |
| Reminiscin' when it wasn’t all business |
| If it got where it started |
| So we all gather here for the dearly departed |
| Hip hopper since a toddler |
| One homeboy became a man then a mobster |
| If the guys let me get my last swig of Vodka |
| R.I.P., we’ll donate your lungs to a Rasta |
| Went from turntables to mp3s |
| From «Beat Street» to commercials on Mickey D’s |
| From gold cables to Jacobs |
| From plain facials to Botox and face lifts |
| I’m lookin' over my shoulder |
| It’s about eighty niggas from my hood that showed up |
| And they came to show love |
| Sold out concert, and the doors are closed shut |
