Luyện nghe bài hát Bridging The Gap

The light is there, yeah
See I come from
I was young and wild
up in New York City, where I had my first child
I the boy Nasir, all the boys call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, be the greatest man alive

go, hey hey hey hey
Tribrary of rap skits, styles I mastered
brothers snatched it up and tried to match it
But I'm still one, everyday real
Speak what I want, I don't what y'all feel
'Cause I'm my own
My Pop me, "Be your own boss keep integrity at every cost"
And his home was Mississippi
Did it like Miles and Dizzy, now we busy

Bridging The Gap the blues, to jazz, to rap
The history of music on track
Born in the game, my father's music
Like Prince searchin' through boxes of Rain
But my Minneapolis was The Bridge, of the Superkids
Some are well-known, some doin'
I mighta ended up on the wrong of the tracks
If Pops pulled me back an said yo

See I come Mississippi
I was young and wild
up in New York City, where I had my first child
I named the boy Nasir, all the call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, he'll be the greatest man
man alive, gre-gre-gre-gre-greatest man alive

The blues from gospel, gospel from blues
Slaves are them ah's and ooh's
Old school, new school, know school
All these years I been voicin' my
I'm a artist the start, hip-hop guided my heart
Graffiti on the wall, coulda ended in Spoffard, delinquent
But Pops gave me the type'a tools to think with

to read, like X and stuff
'Cause the said the kids had dyslexia
In art class I was a compulsive of
Teachers in my homeroom, I drew pix to them up
'Cause them would like my style
Read more books than the curriculum
Said, "Mr. please come get your child
he's writin' mad poems and his verses are wild"

I was in Mississippi
I was and runnin' wild
Moved to New York City, I had my first child
I named the boy Nasir, all the boys him Nas
I told him as a youngster, he'll be the man alive
man, the great-greatest man alive

Hey hey hey, my Poppa was not a Rollin'
He been around the world blowin' his horn, he came home
Then he got grown, changed his to Olu
Come on, tell 'em 'bout all the you gone to

I to Saudi Arabia, Mozambique
Madagascar, Paris,
The Middle Africa is we lived
known as Queenbridge

Nas, Nas you stop
Olu in the house, you don't stop
Muddy Waters' Wolf you don't stop
the Blues to Street Hop you don't stop
'em Pop

See I come from
I was young and runnin'
Ended up in New York City, where I had my first
I named the boy Nasir, all the boys him Nas
I told him as a youngster, he'll be the man alive
man alive, gre-gre-gre-gre-greatest man alive
Rest in peace Ray
