f*ck A Yard lyrics
by Nas
[Hook]
"Kidnap the presidents wife without a plan" (x6)
f*ck a yard, God, [I'll live to see?] a hundred grand (x3)
[Canibus]
Ever since '94, I swore I would never be bored
Let me break it down how I be breaking federal laws for the green, but not the type of green on your vegetables;
The government cheese, but not the type of cheese that's edible
It's incredible what I be pulling when I'm paid
Shawtys that used to diss me want to be my love-slave
They in, they out; it's all about getting paid
Handcuffed to an aluminum briefcase, wearing some shades
Regardless of my age, I make your maximum wage
And my peers that work at McDonald's get jealous of my fame
So I pay a profit out to keep tabs on my mistress
I got so much dough, I get Santa something for Christmas
Getting paid, 'cause I'm skilled in my trade
Spending my blood money with gloves so I won't catch AIDS
[Webb]
Yo check it, I got to stress it
This sh*t is gettin' hectic
At the drop of a dime, I'll flip like an epileptic
My pockets are [] stop it
I'm not turning a profit
It's an emergency
Any currency, that's the topic
I get a disguise and organize a billion enterprise
You know the scoop, I paid loot for fake alibis
And since the currency is [] and tax-free, I get extra federal notes to take care of [maternity?] fees
I'm building an empire, got peasants calling me "sire"
Have a Swiss bank account waiting for me when I retire
My mind-state is [] and x-rated
And some girls around the way is trying to say my slug penetrated
Not only that, I smell conspiracy in the air
The brothers want me to resign, and when I look, they stop and stare
Blocking my operation, hoping for infiltration
Plus the feds will taps your lines so I get [?] communications
It's time to hibernate and disappear for a while
I gotta avoid APBs, 'cause DA is trying to clamp my style
You know my steelo, I make moves on the delow
When people ask my name, I tell them "Mr. Incognito"
I got a master-plan, so what I'm a wanted man, 'cause
[Hook (x2)]
Kidnap the presidents wife without a plan (x6)
f*ck a yard, God, [I'll live to see?] a hundred grand (x3)
[Canibus]
I'd love to see my gold teeth gleeming, magazine tabloids
I'm living like Eddie when he traded places with Dan Aykroyd
When I go to the clubs, I be dressed to impress
I invest in brand names like Yes to get some sex
I'm a subliminal criminal, 'cause I let you think I'm [?]
But see, I've learned to be quicker when no one's lookin'
It's all about the dollar-bill, y'all, the dollar-bill
Just put the gun in my hand and tell who I got to kill
'Cause I refuse to yield, until I make a cool mill'
You know my style, I'm the jewel of the Nile
Keeping it real, clocking bills from the drugs I deal
f*ck a yard, I want the whole football field
[Webb]
My information is beyond calculation
Skills is infinite, I'm a threat to your nation
I break through security
Undetectable by sight
Black camouflage, I'll blend in with the night
I pop the [?], and I'm like a knife when I stab it
I'll snatch the video tapes, then I'll make my escape
Lets discuss it
I'm quick to bring the ruckus when I rush it
Malteses is at my door, God damn, I got to flush it
And when they search it, I'll just front like [detergent?]
And commit tax evasion, 'cause real life, I ain't paying
Got 5-0 gassed, think they got me on lock-down
But little do they know: I got an underground compound
Sublevel, I live a floor above the devil
Completely hidden, outsiders are forbidden
So watch your back, I want the whole [?]
Motherf*cking sub-zero [?] catch your slippin'
[Hook (x2)]
Kidnap the presidents wife without a plan (x6)
f*ck a yard, God, [I'll live to see?] a hundred grand (x3)
