[Nas:]
Turn your radios up...
You are now allowed to listen to the radio...

The REAL ^!$$%z are back, on the radio...

Uh, no slackin, no beggin, no askin, no fastin

No disrespect to Islam or? Iman? or pastor
No answers to questions the media's askin
Why we fight each other in public in front of these arrogant fascists?

They love it; puttin the old ^!$$%z vs. the youngest
Most of our elders failed us, how could they judge us? ^!$$%z
There's verbal books published by ^!$$%z, produced by ^!$$%z

Genuine ^!$$%z, so I salute my, ^!$$%z
Not mad 'cause Eminem said ^!$$%, 'cause he my ^!$$%
Wigga, cracker, friend - we all black within, okay?

We all African, okay
Some Africans don't like us no way!
A killng happened in Johannesburg, yesterday

Slain artist named Lucky Dube, hijacked
Some say N-double A-C-P, keep us sidetracked
But I don't buy that, I buy Aston Martins

Faster cars than, NASA cars in, sparkin while ridin
Critics, eat a dick! Journalists see I'm rich
With this "N-word jogging, " I'm just startin, (*##$!


[Chorus: imitating the "Dr. Pepper" commercial jingle and Eazy-E on "^!$$% 4 Life" on spaced lines]
I'm a !@$@, he's a !@$@, she's a !@$@, we some !@$@s

Wouldn't you like to be a !@$@, too?
To all my kike !@$@s, spic !@$@s, guinea !@$@s, chink !@$@s
That's right, y'all my ^!$$%z, too

I'm a !@$@, he's a !@$@, she's a !@$@, we some !@$@s
Wouldn't you like to be a !@$@, too
They like to strangle !@$@s, blamin !@$@s, shootin !@$@s, hangin !@$@s

Still you wanna be a !@$@, too? True...

Wake up in the mornin, shake my third leg in the toilet

Uzi on the nightstand, I'm the man you go to war with
Not a man you go to war against, patience, I'll get you
If that means I can't sleep a WHOLE YEAR, I'm a get you

I'm official not "A-Tisket" or "A-Tasket"
I'll put you in the casket, with the biscuit or the ratchet
They smoke hibiscus, they plants or trees, advanc-ed weed

Don't forsake us, you're all are fake bloods like moviemakers
I flow tighter as Tootie's braces, who be hatin us?
I be on a state bus in shackles if my .8 bust

'Cause y'all some tellers, opposite of bankers
I'm the %#@! for ages, my clique still real QB gangsters
Clique still movin like Freemasons

So if I'm on the flo' for the law, there's lodgers all across the nation
Nas is bred for the plan, to hold the Grand
Dragon's head in my hand, come and get me, here I am


[Chorus, omit "true"]
