歌手:Nas
专辑:《I Am...》

It's been a long time been a long time comin

Looks like the death of me now

But you know there's no turning back now

This is what makes me - this is what I am
Feel me Let's go
You can hate me now but I won't stop now

Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now

But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now

You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW

(Do it now do it now)

Don't hate me hate the money I see
Clothes that I buy
Ice that I wear clothes that I try
Close your eyes
Picture me rollin sixes money foldin
******* honies that swollen to riches
Nas get in ya
Most critically acclaimed Pulitzer
Prize winner
Best storyteller thug narrator
My style's greater
Model dater big threat to a lot of you haters
Commentators ringside try watchin my paper
Almost a decade quite impressive
Most of the best is in the essence
For this rap **** that I stand for
Expandin more to the big screen
Bill Gates dreams
But it seems you'd rather see me
In jail with state greens
Want me off the scene fast
But good things last
Like your favorite MC still
Makin some mean cash
First rapper to bring a platinum plaque
Back to the projects
But you still wanna hate be my guest I suggest

Money is power ************
I got millions of thugs on salary

(Do it now)
You can hate me now but I won't stop now

Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now

But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now

You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW

Do it now I told you do it now

Let's go
You wanna hate me then hate me;
What can I do
But keep gettin money
Funny I was just like you
I had to hustle hard never give up
Until I made it
Now y'all sayin that's a clever *****
Nuttin to play with
Hate on me I blew but I'm the same ol G
People warn me
When you're on top there's envy
Took my ****** out the hood
But you doubt on us
Sayin we left the hood but
Can't get it out of us
My bad should I step out my shoes
Give 'em to you
Here's my cars and my house
You can live in that too
Criticize when I flow for the streets
Hate my dress code
Gucci this Fendi that
What you expect hoe
Nickname Esco'
Took this game to its threshold
Best flow I bet the whole U S know
Try to make it like you the realest
But who the illest
Think we all know the answer to that
Cause ****** feel this right

You think I'ma come this far
And let you ****** stop me now
I hate you too (Do it now )
You can hate me now but I won't stop now

Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now

But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now

You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW
(Do it now )

I like this I like the way this feels
It's a thin line between paper and hate
Friends and snakes nine millis and thirty-eights
Hell or the pearly gates; I was destined to come
Predicted blame God he blew breath in my lungs
Second to none wicked turn wives to widows
Shoot through satin pillows the desolate one
Took a little time to claim my spot
Chairman of the board until this game stop
And I side with the Lord
Ride for the cause while drivin ****** shot at my doors
Plottin I'm sure to catch me
With they glocks to my jaws
Tried stickin me up
But I flipped on these ducks (you tried)
Instead of me ambulances were picking them up
(That's what you get)
****** fear what they don't understand
Hate what they can't conquer
Guess it's just the fury of man
Became a monster on top of the world never fallin
I'm as real as they come from day one
Forever ballin
C'mon

You ain't never seen a ***** like me
Ever in your life
And that's what you can't understand
You can hate me now but I won't stop now

Cause I can't stop now you can hate me now

But I won't stop now cause I can't stop now

You can hate me now you can hate me NOWWWW
You can hate me now
C'mon ******
But I won't stop now
Do it now Get this **** over with
It ain't gon' never stop ******
