Yeah, I want all my niggas to come journey me My is Nas, and the year is 1973 of me, therefore I could see Through my belly window, who I am
I in a womb, just like an Abyss from behind the sun, my hands balled in a fist Punching on my stomach, kicking on her cervix Twitching I'm nervous, thought my intended purpose Was to be to reign, not in scorn or vain But to take on a name, my pops chose for me Bloodstream full of indo, developing month process, infant size
A in his early stage, his mother in the early 30s Was married to pops wishin' what she carried drop I'm not worthy to come from a women so pure, Ann of her flesh, blood of her blood, her blood and bones Hearin' prayers, she for my good health That I become a man and to make a way for myself she was, and her paranoia got in my blood Mixed with from my daddy's genes
Lotta screams I'm hearin', it's Both is scrappin' I'm not a baby A can happen
I shot my way out my mom I my way out my mom dukes I my way out my mom dukes I my way out my mom dukes
Yo, must wanna keep me, 'cause 4 months pass, I'm still alive Guess I got they call a Ill Will to survive When I look hard the is killin' my eyes I when moms is layin' down, I get bored, start to get live Move to side, hear loud music and vibe All babies are born with rhythm, that's no lie Solar energize, mineralize food flowin' through my tube I'm covered in thick layer of goo
Month two was the least comfortable My cord choking me but month 3 was closer, see That's pops took moms to see the doc at the clinic But I was saved, he changed his in the last minute Watchin' 'em yell, heard my moms well Feared fights, so terrified when we fell While they broke up furniture and smashed plates on the I if I am born, will I be safe at all
This place they call the world though my view was so Couldn't wait to get out, and grow up and take Month 5, Month 6 went by, I'm born in July But the already figured out a date and time, Septemeber 14th, '73 Get world, doctors in the front waitin' for me Arms 'cause they know when I drop, alot of shit's gon' stop See how the goverment will start re-training Month 9, I'm a week over due, the induced
Pops told my moms, "Push and take breaths too calm", holdin' her arm, I'm trying to hold on Surgical gloves touching my scalp, my pops out Everything is blurry, my first breath out Tears pouring my pops face he's so proud Wantin' to me, but I was so bloody They washed me off and he said, "At that nigga ain't ugly" Placed me in his snuggly, laid me on my mother
Finally, I got to see who held me in her She love me, and yo I plan to the devil Y'all about to see world in trouble
