Life's a B**ch (Live)
[Spoken: Nas]
You know, it's life
Life as I know it man
This life is crazy
I realize that we're all here for a purpose
I was lucky to find mine
I didn't come from a privileged family
I didn't read no fancy books like [?]
With no help, we can raise and wave
For me, I needed more than money though
I wanted to be heard man
[Verse: Nas]
20, it's a blessin'
The essence of adolescence leaves my body, now I'm fresh and
My physical frame is celebrated ‘cause I made it
One quarter through life, some godly-like thing created
Got rhymes 365 days annual, plus some
Load up the mic and bust one, cuss while I pus from
My skull, ‘cause it's pain in my brain vein, money maintain
Don't go against the grain, simple and plain
When I was young, I used to do my thing hard
Robbin' foreigners, take they wallets, they jewels and rip they green cards
Dipped to the projects, fla*****n' my quick cash
Got my first piece of ass, smokin' blunts with hash
Now it's all about cash in abundance
*****s I used to run with is rich or doin' years in the hundreds
I switched my motto; instead of sayin', "***** tomorrow!"
That buck that bought a bottle could've struck the lotto
Once I stood on the block, loose cracks produce stacks
I cooked up and cut small pieces to get my loot back
Time is illmatic, keep static like wool fabric
Pack a 4-matic to crack your whole cabbage
[Chorus: Nas]
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we get high
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we get high
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we puff lye
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we get high
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
[Spoken: Nas]
Shoutout to my father Olu Dara
This is his horn part he wrote
Can we hear the horn?
He played that *****t so right
[Chorus: Nas]
Life's a ***** and then you—then you get high
You never know, it's real *****t, right?
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we puff lye
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a ***** and then you die, that's why we get high
‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go
Life's a ***** and then you die
[Spoken: Nas]
Y'all making me high right now, we don't need no *****
Yeah, oh
Thank you for that
