Nas - Blunt Ashes
[intro: Nas]
Yo, I Want The Langston Hughes And Alex Haley
Got Blazed Before They Told Stories
I`ma Get Blazed Before I Tell Y`all Stories
I Saw On Tv Today, This Man Lost His Son, His Son Died
So He Had Him Cremated, Took His Ashes, And Then Made It To A Diamond Ring
Now He Watches His Son Shine Everyday
I Just Thought About That, While I Sit Here Ashing In This Ash Tray, Yea
[verse 1: Nas]
The Makin` Of A Mad Band
Intricate Stories Of Devante Swing
Ava Gardner, The Crashin` Of James Dean
Bobby Brown Influenced By Rick James And It Goes..
Prince Wanted Alexander O`neal To Be Morris Day Or Jerome
But Alex Was Puttin` Coke In His Nose, Nigga Whylin`
Could Be A Myth But I Swear That The Source Was Close, Phyllis Hyman
Killed Herself, It Was Crazy, Mommy Was Bad They Say
Donny Hathaway Freefall From A Balcony, He Swings
[hook: Nas]
As The Blunt Ash Falls Into The Ash Tray
I Could See My Whole Life Fly Past Me
Did I?, Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
And Will The Money And Fame Out Last Me?
The Blunt`s Ash Falls Down In The Ash Tray
Will I See My Whole Life Fly Past Me?
I`m Askin` Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
Did I?... Anything Else You Wanna Know, Just Wanna Ask Me?
[verse 2: Nas]
Sam Trusted Womack With His Main Lady
He Tossin` In The Grave, Like, `this Is How You Repay Me`?
A Change Gon` Come, Wish You Didn`t Trust Me So Much
Marvin Said `no Mountain`s High Enough, Fly Stuff`
David Ruffin Was Punchin` Tammy Terrell, Gave Her Concussions
While The Funk Brothers Was Layin` Down The Percussion
When Flo From The Surpremes Died, Diana Ross Cried
Many People Said That She Was Laughin` Inside
[hook: Nas]
As The Blunt Ash Falls Into The Ash Tray
I Could See My Whole Life Fly Past Me
Did I?, Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
And Will The Money And Fame Out Last Me?
The Blunt`s Ash Falls Down In The Ash Tray
Will I See My Whole Life Fly Past Me?
I`m Askin` Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
Did I?... Anything Else You Wanna Know, Just Wanna Ask Me?
[verse 3: Nas]
John F. Kennedy`s, Enemies Dealt With Treachery
It Interests Me, Judy Campbell In Gucci Sandals
She`s What A Temptress Be
The Death Of Ennis Cosby, What A Mystery
Or The Chicagoan Harold Washington
Someone Is Sabotaging Them
Watch Out For The Traps
Larry Troutman Killed His Brother Roger Troutman
Then He Killed Himself, That`s The End Of Zapp
And I Wouldn`t Change A Thing, Mistakes Of The Greats
This Is What Came From Their Pain
From Their Hurt We Gain, An Unfair Exchange
[hook: Nas]
As The Blunt Ash Falls Into The Ash Tray
I Could See My Whole Life Fly Past Me
Did I?, Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
And Will The Money And Fame Out Last Me?
The Blunt`s Ash Falls Down In The Ash Tray
Will I See My Whole Life Fly Past Me?
I`m Askin` Did I Keep It Gangsta Or Keep It Classy?
[outro: Nas (over The Hook)]
I Could Smell Old Bogey Cigars
Long Record Perfumes, Smellin` Just As Sweet, Ha-ha
Me And My Wife K, Flyin` In A Drop-top Like Ruby And Ottis Davis Baby
Knaw`mean?, Yo Man, I Get Smoked Out, And Start Thinkin` About
Patty Mcdaniels Got A Oscar, For Playin` Mami In `gone With The Wind`
And She Didn`t Get Allowed, Wasn`t Even Allowed To Go To The Premier
Could`ya`believe That?, Couldn`t Go To Premier To Her Joint
Tssk. Man, You Know They Were Strong Back Then Man
Blunt From My Ash Tray, Nothin` Gon` To Live Past Me, Yea, Yea, Yea
