Take It In Blood (Explicit)

Take It In Blood (Explicit) - Nas

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that"

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that"

Yo; I never brag how real I keep it cause it's the best secret

I rock a vest prestigious Cuban link flooded Jesus

In a Lex watchin Kathie Lee and Regis

My actions are one with the seasons

A tec squeezin - executioner winter time I rock a fur

Mega popular center of attraction

Climaxin my b**ches they be laughin

They high from sniffin coke off a twenty-cent Andrew Jackson

City lights spark a New York night

Rossi and Martini sippin Sergio Tachinni flippin mad pies

Low price I blow dice and throw em

Forty-five by my scrotum manifest the "Do or Die" slogan

My niggaz roll in ten M3's

Twenty Gods poppin wheelies on Kawasaki's

Hip-Hop's got me on some ol' sprayin shots like a drumroll

Blankin out and never miscount the shells my gun hold

I don't stunt I regulate

Henny and Sprite I seperate watchin crab niggaz marinate

I'm all about tecs and good jooks and sex

Israelite books holdin government names from Ness

MC's are crawlin out every hole in the slum

You be aight like blood money in a pimp's cum

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that"

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that

for you wack MC's"

Currency is made in trust of the Messiah

I'm spending it to get higher

Earth Wind and Fire singing reasons why I'm

Up early trustworthy is a nine that bust early

Sunshine on my grill I spill

Remi on imaginary graves put my hat on my waves

Latter Day Saints say religious praise

I dolo challenge any team or solo

You must be buggin out new to my sh*t home on a furlough

Ask around who's laid up sharp and straight up

Mafioso gettin niggaz wigs sprayed up

Skies are misty my life's predicted by a gypsy

I'll one day walk into shots drunk off champange from Sicily

This be the drama I'ma pause like a comma

In a sentence paragraph's indented

Bloodshot red eyes high yellow envelopes of lye

Openin cigars let tobacco fly

Condos are tuneproof we're looking out the sky's moonroof

Shittin like gin and prune juice

Yo the system wants the coon's noose hang em high

Courtrooms filled up it's off the hook while I

Just wrote a statement like I'm facing twenty years

In the basement - chilling on the via with Mumia

For wearin chrome - I told the judge snakes slither

Like Sharon Stone but like Capone I'm thrown (yo)

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that"

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that

for you wack MC's"

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that"

"I made it like that I bought it like that I'm livin like that

for you wack MC's"

Lyrical ly-lyrical mission

Lyrical

Yo the time is wastin I use the mind elevation

Dime sack lacin court pen pacin

Individual lyrical math abrasion

Psychic evaluation the foulest nation

We livin in dangerous lives mad leak and battered wives

A lifestyle where bad streets is patternized

Wise men build and destroy

While the real McCoy dopestfiend named Detroit is still dealin boy

Coke suppliers actin biased

Cause rumors say that niggaz wear wires and we liars

But every night the gat's fired and every day a rat's hired

I still remain the mack flyest in the phat Kani it's --

-- just the killer in me slash drug dealer MC

Ex-slug filler semi mug peeler

Demi bottles of Mo' yo simply follow me flow

Put poetry inside a crack pot and blow

Rough holes for cracked out pussies and buttholes

Bring the G's and the D's roll they can't touch those

Why shoot the breeze about it when you could be about it

My degrees are routed toward the peasy haired brick houses

Instead of the fake medallions

Rich niggaz transport in thousands

Foreign cash exchange amountin to millions

Doors is locked rocks is chopped watch the cameras in the ceilings

Trick b**ches catching mad feelings

Peelin off in the Lex Jeep techniques is four-wheelin

I bet it be some sh*t when we connect with Stretch

When we catch them sex niggaz with the tecs you blessed word

So now it's on never wasted a slug

Time is money when it comes to mine take it in blood

Yeah Capone-N-Noreaga

Yeah yo offical Queensbridge murderers

Mobb Deep keep it real though

Motherf**kin AZ yo
