Yeah, I want all my niggas to come with me My is Nas, and the year is 1973 of me, therefore I could see Through my belly window, who I am
I existed in a womb, just an Abyss Came behind the sun, my hands balled in a fist Punching on my moms stomach, on her cervix Twitching 'cause I'm nervous, thought my purpose Was to be born to reign, not in scorn or But to take on a name, my pops chose for me Bloodstream of indo, developing eyes Nine month process, infant
A prophet in his early stage, his in the early 30s Was married to pops wishin' what she carried drop I'm not worthy to come from a women so pure, Ann Flesh of her flesh, of her blood, her blood and bones prayers, she askin' for my good health That I become a man and learn to a way for myself Nervous she was, and her got in my blood Mixed with Marijuana my daddy's genes
Lotta I'm hearin', it's crazy Both is scrappin' I'm not even a A miscarriage can
I my way out my mom dukes I shot my way out my mom I shot my way out my mom I my way out my mom dukes
Yo, they must keep me, 'cause 4 months pass, I'm still alive Guess I got what they a Ill Will to survive When I hard the lights is killin' my eyes I know when is layin' down, I get bored, start to get live Move side to side, hear music and vibe All black babies are with rhythm, that's no lie Solar energize, mineralize flowin' through my mothers tube I'm covered in thick layer of goo
Month two was the most comfortable My umbilical choking me but month 3 was closer, see when pops took moms to see the doc at the clinic But I was saved, he his mind in the last minute Watchin' 'em yell, heard my moms voice Feared fist fights, so when we fell While they up furniture and smashed plates on the wall I wondered if I am born, will I be at all
This place they call the though my view was so large Couldn't wait to get out, and up and take charge Month 5, Month 6 went by, hopin' I'm born in But the Lord already out a date and time, Septemeber 14th, '73 Get world, doctors in the front waitin' for me open 'cause they know when I drop, alot of shit's gon' stop See how the will start re-training cops Month 9, I'm a week over due, the labor
Pops told my moms, "Push and take breaths too Stay calm", her arm, I'm trying to hold on Surgical touching my scalp, my head pops out Everything is blurry, my breath screams out Tears pouring my pops face he's so proud Wantin' to me, but I was so bloody They washed me off and he said, "At least nigga ain't ugly" me in his arms snuggly, laid me on my mother
Finally, I got to see who me in her body She love me, and yo I plan to overthrow the Y'all about to see this in trouble
