This track is part of the new playlist I’m building on Amazon Music HD…. hopefully I’ll be able to share that soon.
Going back 25 years for a banger off Nas’ first album. Turn it up and enjoy!
I’m the young city bandit, hold myself down single-handed
Nas
For murder raps, I kick my thoughts alone, get remanded
Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne
I’m deep by sound alone, caved inside, 1, 000 miles from home
I need a new nigga for this black cloud to follow
Cause while it’s over me it’s too dark to see tomorrow
Trying to maintain, I flip, fill the clip to the tip
Picturing my peeps, now the income make my heartbeat skip
And I’m amped up, they locked the champ up, even my brain’s in handcuffs
