Take It In Blood lyrics
by Nas
Hook
I made it like that, I bought it like that, I'm living like that (X2)
Verse One
Wanted to be a latin king/ but had roman features/
Forgotten by social workers/ who failed to reach us/
Little animals/ who wanted to f*ck ours teachers /
Uncles in the kitchen/ they was Cheffin up ether
I am new York built/I am south Bronx strong /
Talent drove me crazy b*tch/ I am the black swan/
Shaking up the game like/ Tokyo/ Hong Kong /
Any place put upon is gonna be gone/
This is Micheal Cera Rap/it seems to be my fault
Valentime verse the world/it seems to be my fault
Am Taking they attacks /;with a grain of salt
Am Killing sh*t/Get my yellow tape and the chalk
The media scape goat/feeling the ropes tension
My alter ego/in all black like a French men
Hip-hop Junkie /in need of an intervention
Best from new york and they always fail to mention
Hook
I made it like that, I bought it like that, I'm living like that (X4)
Verse Two
Raised to rob and steal/ never to beg and barrow
So I Prayed every night/ for better luck tomorrow
The south Bronx //real life Grand theft auto
Hands on steering wheel/ life is full throttle
Learned to move forward/ just like an engine /
One my best days/was the original nine eleven/
My life in exile// living below the heavens/
Should be among kings /walking with legends/
It pleasure and pain/ why should I feel ashamed/
It’s a Cole World/ brought myself yoga Flame /
That boy you hyping up/ knows I am Lui Kang/
Chuck norris his ass/when he steps to my lane/
I know i am out of season /this life feels strange /
Never understanding///;/ please try to explain
Drunk driving through life; ;;;;;;;;;;; swerving lanes
Gods solider waiting on orders to crash the plane
Hook
I made it like that, I bought it like that, I'm living like that (X4)
Jimmy ValenTime:
Yeah Man
That Hard core east coast sh*t
That New York sh*t
(Pause)
Take it in blood
(Pause)
We want our spot back
You know That Real Rap sh*t
