produced by large professor
it ain’t hard to tell i excel then prevail
the mic is contacted i attract clientele
my mic check is life or death breathin’ a sniper’s breath
i exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
deep like the shining sparkle like a diamond
sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin’
hit the earth like a cometinvasion
nas is like the afrocentric asian halfman halfamazin’
cause in my physical i can express through song
delete stress like motrin then extend strong
i drink moët with medusa give her shotguns in hell
from the spliff that i lift and inhale it ain’t hard to tell
the buddha monk’s in your trunk turn the bass up
not stories by aesop
place your loot up parties i shoot up
nas i analyze drop a jewel inhale from the l
school a fool well you feel it like braille
it ain’t hard to tell i kick a skill like shaquille holds a pill
vocabulary spills i’m ill plus matic
i freak beats slam it like iron sheik
jam like a tec with correct techniques
so analyze me surprise me but can’t magmatize me
scannin’ while you’re plannin’ ways to sabotage me
i leave ’em froze like heroin in your nose
nas will rock well it ain’t hard to tell
this rhythmatic explosion
is what your frame of mind has chosen
i’ll leave your brain stimulated niggas is frozen
speak with criminal slang begin like a violin
end like leviathan it’s deep well let me try again
wisdom be leakin’ out my grapefruit troop
i dominate break loops givin’ mics menestrual cycles
street’s disciple i rock beats that’s mega trifle
and groove even smoother than moves by villanova
you’re still a soldier i’m like sly stone in cobra
packin’ like a rasta in the weed spot
vocals will squeeze glocks
mcs eavesdrop though they need not to sneak
my poetry’s deep i never fell
nas’ raps should be locked in a cell it ain’t hard to tell
