Текст (слова) песни: Nas - Stillmatic (the Intro)

 
Uh, you know I still run with that, that blood of a slave 
Boiling in my veins 
It`s just hot until a nigga can`t take it no more 
Blood of a slave, Heart of a King 
Turn my voice up 
 
Ayo, the brother is "Stillmatic" 
I crawled up out of that grave, wiping the dirt, cleaning my shirt 
They thought I`ll make another "Illmatic" 
But it`s always forward I`m moving 
Never backwards stupid here`s another classic 
C-Notes is falling from the sky 
By now the credits roll starring Nas executive poet, produced, directed by 
The Kid slash Escobar 
Narration describes the lives and laws tribes in the ghetto trying to survive 
The feature opens with this young black child 
Finger scratch, cigarette burns on the sofa, turning the TV down 
Mary Jane girls, 45`s playing, soft in the background 
Poof from C-Town`s mornings was hash browns 
Stepped over dope fiends, walking out the door, all of us paw 
I learned the difference between the snitches, the real ones, and who`s soft 
And the murderous, hungriest crews 
People jumping from roofs, shotguns pumping made it through my youth 
Walking very thin lines, ages seven and nine 
That`s the age I was on my album cover, this is the rebirth 
I know the streets thirst water like Moses 
Walking through the hot desert searching to be free 
This is my end and my new beginning Nostalgia 
Out for the in a mega places, it`s like a glitch in the matrix 
I seen it at all, did it all, most of y`all been pop for a minute 
Spitters, sinners and the game get rid of y`all 
Y`all got there but y`all didn`t get it all, I want my style back 
Hate to cease y`all plan it`s the rap reaper man 
To them double up hustlers, bidders, niggaz who real 
Professionals, stick up childs dreaming for meals 
Let my words guide you, get inside you 
From crypts to pirals this is survival 
 
Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King 
Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King 
Uh, uh Blood of a Slave, Heart of a King 
Uh, yea 
Huh, Braveheart
