This is my openin’ scripture -
I’ve been preparin this album my whole life, might be uncomfortable for most you listeners
Satan’s bombardin’ me with propositions, but I declined
I started in the Bridge without a pot to piss in
I overcame all the opposition
My teachers told that I’d a broken man on a cot in prison
Cloaked in the finest drapes, not Bathing Apes
But we still filthy, Supreme Court say we still guilty
This is the Genesis, and I don’t even see a worthy arch nemesis
I get loose like the Jena Six, they put a noose on ‘Pac
Now I’m defendin Vic, and free that nigga TIP
I’d take the grave or a bid than let some dirty clan members run up in my crib
And plant cracks on the man that’s goin’ to church
Plant packs on the man that’s goin to work and build cases,
Meanwhile they daddies and they brothers is recruitin all my brothers and cousins to fill bases
The nerve of y’all to call Escobar racist
Nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger hatred — http://www.ohhla.com/anonymous/nas/untitled/proclaim.nas.txt
(this is still the best track on nas’s untitled album. it’s the closest nas came to fulfilling the potential and hype for the record. “i don’t even see a worthy arch-nemesis” is probably the truest thing he’s said since illmatic.)
