Life is so You've been a lot I'll tell your sometimes, you know
Seem like yesterday, I was a baby on the I a holiday, I was steppin' to the beat I had to pay my rent, on the East side I threw my tag around, let b-boys take me for a I writing songs, I kinda got into the groove They tried to criticize my every move But then I realized I had nothing to lose It me by surprise when I became my muse
I was like a renegade I had a feeling that I can't I didn't to what people said (whatcha do) I came, I saw, I
I was constant as the star I had a burning in my heart I never gave up in the dark I came, I saw, I (let's go)
Ooh I came, I saw, I
I expressed myself, came like a virgin the aisle Exposed my ass, and I did it with a smile And it came to sex, I know I walked the borderline And when I struck a pose, all the gay boys their mind I justified my love, I you say a little prayer They had me crucified, you I had to take it there I opened up my heart, I learned the of good-bye I saw a ray of light, saved my life (music saved my life)
I was fearless like a I had a feeling I can't explain I didn't listen to people said (whatcha do) I came, I saw, I
I was constant as the star I had a fire in my heart I gave up fighting in the dark I came, I saw, I (let's go)
Ooh, I came, I saw, I
In 1994, I came the door With that beats versus scratches Verbally murdered My mom's from the Carolina's, pops from And QB's where I flowing But I was scared the was gonna kick my apartment door in Had a baby girl by a crazy girl I got married Heavily accosted, ended in a bad divorce And I know how to pick 'em, I? gave a fuck about public pressure Or the of two bigaloos Now the fool? And I never been happier, no lie I'm you humble servant, I'm Nas If y'all burn down Ferguson riot My life cannot be compared to And trappers, and Any politicians, beauticians, a Anybody, so I'm coffins, heads or tails Penny tosses, we dead or in jail Not many options on the I came from And I turned to a rap messiah, spit rapid And I right back to the block I came from
I was like a renegade I had a feeling I can't explain I didn't listen to what people (whatcha do) I came, I saw, I
I was constant as the northern I had a fire burning in my I never gave up in the dark I came, I saw, I (let's go)
Ooh I came, I saw, I
