Nature
At the rip age of 24, I'd done seen it all done it all
Some dreams stay fresh and some are spoiled
Dealing with time went to spring, summer, fall
Its crazy changes, is this that made me famous?
I come a long way from Timbs, minimum wages
Stocking caps summer jobs pockets flat
It's funny how my childhood idols now be coping cracks
Ain't knocking at them, fortunately life is too short to see
It's only right we move accordingly at every second
I use to carry heavy weapons, previously cocked
Tucked in my shirt for every session, but hold up
The two-six bid made me grow up
Came home to the damn same dream with no luck
And half the clique strong, the other half moved on
Some with new lives and new wives niggaz live long
The foulest thing about time is still ticks when you gone

Nas
For those who lived the way that i lived we came a long way
From wiping coal out our eye lids from raps hottest
Smoking lye to the track guidance, 'member back then
Before mack 10's expensive bottles, had a sick mind
Niggaz taught me how to get mine
We often sit courts they get tossed that get spit lines
To all niggaz that the Lord seemed to jib for their time
Why we plan to live for-ev he had a different design

With my luck soon as I reach the gate that made me pay... pray
Minutes go by indo-go-high the specialist
decked out dark specks finessing it
Used to play catch a kiss same girls back then now leave us messages
A whole lot, travel to my old spot
where we sold rock, although it's trifle
Ain't nothing changed like time its all a cycle

Yo, wake up to the world stay in charge of your dream
Keep your vision focus get wise and large your cream
Marketing schemes so many in the dark it's unseen
Caught up between perhaps rap was a fortunate thing
Forced to be kings from hustling supporting them fiends
Busting guns, I had no remorse as a teen
Rock birth_stones my first get big nursed the dome
Its hurts to zone now I realize I'm on this earth alone
Time ticks devilish mind design tricks leave you blind quick
And cause you to die behind shit, mathematics
Master 120 I'm Aziatic, I'm amazed with magic
Cuz these allusions that made me savage
Life changed once you established with the right game
Love the night vain found a new way to fight pain
Clocks never stop its all a race to the top
tryna freeze time that's why I iced the face on my watch
