Yeah, [Am]niggaz smoke, laugh, party,

Get cash, live fast,
body [Dm]their man's mama
[Am]Rich- ass niggaz is ridin'
with three llamas
Revenge in their eyes,
Hen[Dm]nessey and the [Am]ganja
Word to the wise with villain
state of minds
Grindin', hit[E]tin' Brazilian
[Am]dimes from behind
Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes
from behind
(Grindin', hittin' Brazilian
dimes from behind)
Whenever, if ever, I roll up, it's sown up
Any ghetto will tell ya Nas
[Dm]helped grow us up
My [Am]face once graced promotional
Sony trucks
Hundred million [E]in billin',
I [Dm]helped build 'em up
[Am]Gave my nigga my right,
I could have gave left
So like my girl Foxy, a nig[Dm]ga went Def
[Am]So, nigga, who's your top ten?
Is it MC Shan?
Is [Dm]it MC [Am]Ren?

[Verse 5]
If hip hop should die [C]be fore I wake

[Verse 8]
[Am]
The bigger the cap,
the bigger the peelin'
Come through, something [E]ill,
[Dm]missin' the ceil[Am]in'
What influenced my raps? Stick-
ups and killings
Kidnappings, project buildings,
drug dealings
Criticize that, why is that?
'Cuz Nas rap is compared
to [Dm]le gitimized crap
[Am]'Cuz we love to talk on ass we gettin'
Most intellectuals will only half listen
So you can't blame jazz musicians
Or David Stern with [E]his [Dm]NBA fashion issues
[Am]Oh, I they like me in my white tee
You can't ice me, [Dm]we here for [Am]life, B
On my second marriage,
hip hop's my first wifey
And [E]for that we not [Dm]takin' it lightly
[Am]If hip hop should die, we die together
Bodies in the morgue lie together

[Verse 9]
All together now
[Am]If hip hop should die before I wake
I'll put an extended clip
[Eb]inside [Dm]of my AK
[Am]Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, [Eb]murder the [Dm]DJ

[Verse 10]
[Am]If hip hop should die before I wake
I'll put an extended [E]clip
[Eb]inside [Dm]of my AK
[Am]Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, [Eb]murder the [Am]DJ

[Am]

[Verse 11]
Everybody [Am]sound the same,
commercialize the game
Reminiscin' when it wasn't all business
If [Am]it got where it started
So we all gather here for
the dearly departed
Hip hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became
a man then a mob[Am]ster
If the guys let me get my last
swig of Vodka
R.I.P., we'll donate your lungs
to a Rasta
Went from turntables to mp3s
From "Beat Street" to commercials
on Mick[Am]ey D's
From gold cables to Jacob[Am]s
From plain facials to
[Am]Botox and face lifts
I'm lookin' over my shoulder
It's [Am]about eighty niggaz from
my hood that showed up
[Am]And they came to show love
Sold out concert,
and the doors are closed shut
