Journey Through The Life
[Nas] Yo, Yo [Puffy] Gansta, Gansta [Nas] Gansta Yo [Puffy] That's
Right [Nas] Journey Through the life of some real niggas [Puffy] Some
real niggas, You'll never see what I've seen
[Puffy] When I sleep I
dream of bodies in streams of blood Naked bitches, dead nigga's ghost, Feds
with toast Knockin' my door down sweat poor down my body Roast from the
heat so I soak my sheets Wake up shiverin', pull my hoe close to me, she
sexy Every night is different pussy since my girl left me And I tried to
make her stay with me, but I stay busy And her friends are cut-throats, they
deep throat to lay with me I reminisce how I miss a stare in this
space Resort to the lips of a stripper, sprayin' their face Lampin' in a
mansion, home alone I hear footsteps, shit I kicks just not lyrics I hold
a fifth, wonderin' if ten shots can stop spirits If nigga's try to rob me
then I won't hear it Cause it's different from the streets, I'm missin' my
hood now Missin' all the blocks cuz I'm surrounded by woods now It's
supposed to be good now It's like I'm walkin' tight rope and can't look
down Fire below me Now the fantasies I have for women are
unholy Success, thousand dollar bottles impress Models with fat ass and
big breasts Floor seats, Knicks vs. Nets, private jets Millionaire heir
to Antigua, with Ananda, the MTV diva Nas, how do we survive all this mess?
(I didn't survive) East vs. West the rap game where words became flesh A
whole pound of herb won't desolve my stress Still I ride to the death, love
hip-hop Cause Afrikabababa was def, a lot of respect Feel Me? Fuck to the
rock Sean John jury I got the same hands of crap platinum and the crap
pyramids Write about the black experience, sell it to Marimax Tell me if
you feelin' that
1 - [Lil' Kim & Joe Hooker] Take a journey through
the life of these real niggas The things that they seen it would thrill
niggas If you've seen what they've seen, you would wonder Through the
rain and the pain and the thunder By the time that you realized that it's
goin' down You may find yourself going underground When they see that
this life is upon us We would see that there's no one that we can
trust
[Beanie Sigel] You can never see what I see,
motherfucker Beanie Sigel, the realest nigga from the streets was
taught Stay cased up nigga, stay deep in court Reminiscin' on that cold
cell, deep in thought Gettin' skinny, couldn't eat, cause the meat was
poor Ya'll niggas couldn't live my life, I've been through it Streached
up in hospital beds, fed fluid Two bullets hit my leg, one passed through
it Saw the blood and the hole in my calf, looked through it My life's no
joke, I don' played dice with soap Upstate the case niggas slice your
throat Wear your boxers in the shower when you gaurd your soap I done
seen the biggest nigga's in the yard get broke I done took blocks through
war, took blocks for fall Took blocks to Wall for box of raw What you
think 33 in the glock is for? Black fatigues, skullies and
binoculars, C4, block your doors, nigga's can't stop this war I show you
faggots what this Swatz' is for Hidding spots in the door for the glocks is
for Read the papers, '94 I took the cops to war Half of ya'll niggas
livin' a lie Only reason you switchin' up your droid is cause you keep
gettin' robbed I looked that nigga in the eyes before I send him to
God Beanie Sigel, desert eagle, the realest nigga alive

[Nas] Aiyo, Aiyo, Gansta, Gansta The Bible has words that Christ
wrote, evil men sacrifice goats I speak all my life under oath Since a
kid, troublesome Thrownin' shit at little girls jump ropes Bustin' B-B
Guns at stray cats, that was way back Watched it die, covered in
flies Then I picked up a stick, try to dig in it's eyes Makin' dirt pies,
na, being buggy-eyed shit And every other nigga that rap, sound like my
shit I wear chrome 45's with ice on the grip I don't shoot it, I roll
with killers and criminals With heroin habits they picked up from the
penile They let you have it, all I do is give them a smile Lifestlyes of
the realest, you ain't ruthless you bitch I got a pine box just your size, I
know it'll fit Your whole life's a mistake, stop holdin' the pen Kill
yourself, come back as a man over again Cause in this lifetime I'm reignin',
slay men Leave your whole body cold Your nails grow long, you get gray
skin May this nigga rest in peace, Amen I run with brave men, straight
out the housin', we wildin' Names engraved in the pavement Brick
building, grown ladies jump off the roof Nigga get paged, then murdered at
the phonebooth New York streets made me nigga, it's crazy
nigga
