10 Points

Nas

    America the beautiful, gangsta's paradise
    For a black man to be rich, you say we sacrifice our own family members
    Like we're not savvy enough to make outstanding figures
    And ain't nobody in no cult
    I give so much, financially give away
    But there's an aspect of that that's crippling to us today
    Still coping and dealing with my environment as a kid
    I trust no one today because what someone in my past did

    King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward
    King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in
    King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it
    Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it
    King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing
    King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing
    King, I started sayin' "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest"
    And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King

    Took it from a street dude, you don't need to be a street dude
    Get a lawyer, read your contract, and eat food
    Become Roberta Flack or Lionel
    When you catch flack, that mean they got they eye on you
    Produce great results, they start to lie on you
    Is it love for a Queens dude in Supreme shoes
    Or did the street code expire with these dudes?
    Especially now, I don't expect you to bow, but stand
    Creating jobs, named my venture from after the land
    I came from, that's unheard of
    A hood that's known for murder now doing mergers
    The streets is a lie, don't believe these dudes, jail or death is all you get
    They tell you never move, but when they get money, they split

    King, gotta learn to let it go and move forward
    King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in
    King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it
    Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it
    King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing
    King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing
    King, I started saying "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest" (Peace King)
    And after that, it took off like fire

    They hardly happy for you, keep doing what you do
    You can't please everybody, and not everybody is you
    Don't try to force a square peg in a round circle, that shit'll hurt you
    Don't try to fit in either, you're better off with neither
    Few veteran speakers get medicine when you need it
    Especially when we all need knowledge instead of sneakers
    Stop hangin' on to childhood trauma, it defeats us
    Our challenge is holding ourselves back, I hope you felt that

    Queen, gotta learn to let it go and move forward
    King, you should learn to say no, keep all your dough in
    King, Michael Jordan gives back and you didn't know it
    Like LeBron does, but it's just seldom they show it
    King, get ten points from one bird doin' your thing
    King, 'til one of your homies decide to sing
    King, I started saying "Peace King" on my song "The Flyest"
    And after that, it took off like fire, peace, King
