(feat. Nas)

Seemed like yesterday I was a baby on the street

I took a holiday, I was stepping to the beat
I had to pay my rent on the lower east side
I threw my tag around let B-boys take me for a ride

I started writing songs I kinda got into the groove
They tried to criticize my every single move
But then I realized I had nothing left to lose

It took me by surprise when I became the news

I was fearless like a renegade

I had a feeling that I canâ??t explain
I didnâ??t listen to what people said
I came I saw I conquered

I was constant as a northern star
I had a fire burning in my heart
I never gave up fighting in the dark

I came I saw I conquered
Oh Ohhhhhh Oh
I came I saw I conquered


I expressed myself, came like a virgin down the aisle
Exposed my naked $$# and did it with a smile

And when it came to sex I know I walked the borderline
And when I struck a pose all the gay boys lost their minds
I justified my love I made you say a little prayer

They had me crucified you know I had to take it there
I opened up my heart I learned the power of goodbye
I saw a ray of light, Music saved my life


I was fearless like a renegade
I had a feeling that I canâ??t explain

I didnâ??t listen to what people said
I came I saw I conquered
I was constant as a northern star

I had a fire burning in my heart
I never gave up fighting in the dark
I came I saw I conquered

Oh Ohhhhhh Oh
I came I saw I conquered


I Conquered, (Hail DJ, show me the way)
I Conquered, conquered.


I was fearless like a renegade
I had a feeling that I canâ??t explain
I didnâ??t listen to what people said

I came I saw I conquered
I was constant as a northern star
I had a fire burning in my heart

I never gave up fighting in the dark
I came I saw I conquered
Oh Ohhhhhh Oh

I came I saw I conquered
