And as a special treat evening I have asked foremost young poet To his latest poem for us
and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus Everybody, him and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus We, we, we came a way
and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus Everybody him and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus
Yo, yo, yo Power and crime, the thugs powder and dimes Twenties of D, is yo' wilder than mine? My niggaz bust nines, puff lye and up cowards For shine, you resist, then you push up flowers
I'm like Lou Cabrasi, Vito's best That's Godfather shit, seat, next lit plans Revolvers spit, I'm too to bargain with And you don't want the God to pull up the that's sick
Arms and wrists is lit up, Kings Plaques applause when I do my thing Streets is black as midnight, the gray With stains of and germ and piss all day
on the ave, get sized up, plus appraised Duck and pray that my guns don't your way Niggaz names, livin' off reputation Sometimes gotta you ain't nothin' changin'
Ladies and gentlemen, Everybody, him
If you ill, come get me, I ain't runnin' If your gun's off the then we'll both be gunnin' Come get me if you real, 'cause I scared all fair in love and war and I'm well prepared
If you ill, come get me, 'cause I runnin' If your gun's off the hook then we'll be gunnin' Come get me if you real, I ain't scared It's all fair in and we can take it there
You like me clown? Now, you wanna take me down? If I my face around, you gon' do what? You butt crew knew I blew up, I been shinin', baseball diamonds Dick for your chick lings
know what my nine pearl handle's about Fuck you, say girlie mouth? Get it krunk the Dirty South And I you see me flossed out, multi mill i Hear your bitch talk about me, you give her the eye?
Girls dig you, imagine she feel for me? You make hot songs, but she know you from me Who ill as me? I on haters in album three level, I take y'all niggaz to 3-D
Can't find a nigga from Queens I'll be the most grimy killers (What nigga?) And all look clean Who put bombs underneath cars, if you want beef then Your next is to the graveyard
If you ill, get me, 'cause I ain't runnin' If gun's off the hook then we'll both be gunnin' get me if you real, 'cause I ain't scared It's all fair in and war and I'm well prepared
If you ill, come get me, I ain't runnin' If your gun's off the then we'll both be gunnin' get me if you real, 'cause I ain't scared It's all fair in love and we can it there
You too feminine to kill again, jail got you You but you scared to go back up North Keep your face twisted, but you really want nuttin' Talk a bunch of shit and stop frontin'
You wanna flip again, and sell drugs again Be on the run again, you at the Comfort Inn Shoot up door, bust in on you and your whore Put in bags, clean the blood off of the floor
So play tough, I want to get out of line I got nines, every shape and design I sent killers every race to put one in spine Two in your ear, get crew, who do I fear? Nobody never get and none of em dyin'
I think like you do, roll about two irons Catch me flyin', in the aircraft winin' And dinin', you die, then we laugh, you ass You ass to gauze up, your stab wounds
While I'm gettin' head, in a Lear jet, With all my goons, all my ice, and Full of paper, not money it's bank The Illmatic explains how we rock Yachts and co-ops, we buy the and sell you a block
If you ill, come get me, 'cause I ain't If your gun's off the hook then we'll be gunnin' Come get me if you real, 'cause I ain't It's all fair in love and war and I'm well
If you ill, come get me, I ain't runnin' If your gun's off the hook then we'll both be get me if you real, 'cause I ain't scared It's all fair in love and we can take it
and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus Everybody, him Ladies and gentlemen, We, we, we a long way and gentlemen, na-na-Nastradamus Everybody him Ladies and gentlemen, and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen
