Nas Told Me (R.O.S.E. Intro) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everything that I do is wrong
Everything that I do is sin
All I do is get ho's and money
Tell me when is that suppose to end?
Hip-Hop was my father figure, what was mommm'a suppose to do?
Result of society's evil, now you know what as rose is too

[Hook]
Yah, result of society's evil now you know what a rose is too
Result of society's evil


[Verse 2]
Uh, eyes low in my super shades, ya I'm smoking that super haze
Got women I knew for years
Fucking bitches I knew for days
All my nights have been way to long
All my drinks have been way to strong
Top floor of that cosmo
Sin city, I'm way to gone
Give me freedom or give me death
Give me Jesus let me lead this mass
Nightmares about hellfire, Lord please I don't need this stress
These ho's be acting up, these ho's be acting up
These niggas wanna hold me back, cause these niggas be acting tough
Ya'll a joke, I can laugh enough
Ya'll broke and can't rack enough
Don't have a buck well Im'a have it up
Got nothing to give, I don't have a fuck
Society failed'em, not having shit
Watching all of these niggas shine
Nas told me "The World is Yours", best believe I'm gonna get whats mine
[Hook 2]
Ya, Nas told "The World is Yours", best believe I'm gonna get whats mine
Ya, Nas told me the world is yours


[Verse 3]
Hide your kids, hide your wife
They'll be gone with this type of life
My dogs come alive at night, keep an arm in the glove like iron might
Hi, I might be drunk as well as schooled, at night I get thugs for sell
Now I'm in Vancouver, in that Buddha, in my hotel
It's your money, it's your money
Say what? I blow money
Had a girl but these ho's love me, had'a let her go it was so ugly
Man I wish I could go back, all I could was move on
All this from a church boy who moved out and got to gone
Gettin old with no father figure, whats a nigga suppose to do?
Go to college or get money, best believe that I chose the loot
Tired of tell'm not having shit
Watching all of these niggas shine
Nas told me "The World is Yours", best believe I'm gonna get whats mine

[Hook 2x2]

[Outro]
I've been on the same road for way to long, thought it was time that I do my thing
Now the preacher man saying that I'm way to gone, he don't know whats going through my brain
I've been on the same road for way to long, thought it was time that I do my thing
Now the preacher man saying that I'm way to gone, he don't know whats going through my brain
I'm going insane
