Excerpt for “Nas is Like”
Banter
In the race to remain relevant
I'm climbing a speaker filled pyramid
Pen plus paper.
Outcome ground shake
Cracks sediment. Disaster element
Bring Doom. Like MF My nigga. See you soon
Move solo. No entourage means no goons.
Flew the coup. Necessary attributes.
I belong walking the sky, Luke
Warm flow on this one
The next shit'll boil the booth.
No matter what the issue or premise is
I paid dues to the game.
I got a full membership with a welcome package.
The card reads: so let it begin
Kaboom... The name can speak for itself
But why does it have to..
Skills alone. Can justify the statute..
Of limitation. Catalyst..
If fact I want to be the most hated
Most loved.. Most furthest away from achieving greatness
What a grave statement.. On this mic..
I swear I can make this body weightless.
I'm cool like chester cheetah in shell toe adidas.
Call them tiger white with fat laces
Read between the lines. Face it
You're faceless. My present and future..
Strong like the thing Ben Grimm
Arms long enough. Wrap around anything
Fantastically bored from boredom
And I’m tired of the nonsense
And if it isn't raw how the hell can it make sense
These retards become rap stars
In a jungle facing more koalas than jaguars
So while they choking on that bamboo.
Heres what Imma do
Imma keep my thoughts deep like Lions pulse is.
No Yoda around. I still mastered the force kid
I'm a narcissist
When you loved my stuff more than I did
And now who target is. Its logic
We all compose symphonies. Many forms
Your success cannot hinder me. Now let it swarm.
And bee one with the melody.
So on and so forth.
Manifest destiny like teepees and tomahawks
3x
I guess this is how an epic starts.
Nah scratch that
This is how an epic starts.
My life on audiobook...the pages talk
A good listen of blind ambition.
Footsteps..walking on water
My deposition. Shiftin' gears while she bitchin'
Hearing the roar of the engine..
Swerving in a 300c. When does the world end?
If maybe when I crash this shit
Niggas. Blood and water don't mix.
After this get bit by a shark.
Teeth clench.. How many rows?
On your mark, get set, vamos..numero uno
According to who though..
Said my style was so 95. But if Big was still alive
Would you have changed yours or copy rhyme for rhyme
In these days and times
Observe and analyze then spit it back
Make sure you understand that technique
These bastards forgot what it means to be an mc
Refresh the playlist and keep it on repeat
So when you need me. I'll address the whole room
See you soon. Sincerely or truly yours..
DrewKaboom. Now what it do...
3x
I guess this is how an epic starts.
Nah scratch that
This is how an epic starts.
My life on audiobook...the pages talk
Define explosive..
