"What defines my name" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" Name existed forever, means "victory helper" Whole name means "protector" Shorten it by two letters, without the I-R at the end The reincarnated Gil Scott livin' in the bottle again The World Cup in Moscow with a blonde who's a ten Vape pen when I speak, it's likе a lottery win Quote my total, multi-mogul So fly, I could walk in any spot, evеry box be soakin' From a time when weed was stronger, today's streets are calmer They used to kill for shades, sneaks and bombers Uh, my name existed forever Before Christians came in America, even better When click sounds of they mouths was language for humans With stick figures in caves, my name's written fluent Nasty like way before even Rome had a sewage For fifty-thousand years ago if I could choose this origin Since there's nothin' to gain by assumin' I'ma say the definition of my name — the truest I shocked 'em like real bullets in prop guns Letras de cancionesCreep with baddies in sequin dresses who high-strung Fresh off the jet, you can see my vision where I've come How much time y'all got? Yo, Preem, let's drop somethin' "What defines my name" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" DNA of King James, kin of Saint Michael Polygamous-minded, seven wives on ridiculous timin' They always share the same title, that be the whiskey talk That's foul like a stop-and-frisk, New York At twenty, I said I'd better quit by thirty Then by thirty, I thought by forty rapping is corny How wrong was I? Never would have thought at fifty, new songs by Nas would be hard and live I leave 'em scared like when they hear their name called, but ain't nobody there The definition of my name probably started where I rode the E train, fingers covered in ink stains Writin' was like an escape, excitedly leave the beat flamed It was Ra, Kane, Kool G and Kris Few names like Cool James, 'Face, Cube and Rick That was musically sick, successful and unnatural I throw they songs in a cyanide capsule The truth is poison to any fraud Demigod rockin' suits and shoes, goin' against any odds How could you hate me? I survived the '80s The D's, the trauma, embalming fluid in laced weed Inhale fumes from a stove we'll cook up The show's booked up, I chose to take the world over, look up "What defines my name" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" (Nas) "N-A-S" "What defines my name" Ayo, thirty years later, Illmatic was dropped Yeah— man, what the fuck am I doing? Hahahaha Ayy, yo, Preem, chill I got the rhymes, you got the beats (Aight) Thirty years later, we back in the streets, we back in the lab Aight then, let's go Nas!
