Az - Desperados lyrics

[Intro: Nas] You ever dance with the Devil under the pale moonlight? Desperados travelling What the f**'s up son? We could do this word up, we could do this [Chorus: Nas] Spend too many nights on the Henny getting right Breaking big face Bennies, betting against the friendly dice I can't call it, it's going too good to spoil it Tell it like it is, the raw sh** never recorded [Canibus] At a thousand degree Celsius I make MCs melt f** my record label I appear courtesy of myself Let me explain how I maintain thresholds to pain I walk across the Sun barefoot looking for shade I rearrange your ribcage like a twelve gauge at close range And change the position of your brain My hard raps penetrate through your hardhats and all that n***a, get ya wig peeled back I scalp you like the Indians on horseback Running Bull will hit you harder than running back Stunning man with brave and cunning raps Swiftly running laps around 48 tracks Like uncut crack you fiends keep coming back Heads is flipping like acrobats on gym mats From wax to an*logue tapes to digital DATs It's critical black, that Canibus is ill like that In fact perhaps you should quit rap, instead of always tryna diss back If n***as keep telling you that your sh**'s wack I rip raps, hardcore raps wrestle you to the floor mat Put you in the figure four, break your thorax Jump off the top turnbuckle and land on your back Till I hear it snap or crackle, the ref says chill black You get clapped bringing the wrong raps to combat Like bringing a paint gun to a shoot out with real gats Y'all n***as is wack, rapping over microphone feedback My intelligence begins where yours peaks at From Fox Boogie in the see-through bra**iere to Nasty Nas here My n***a Nature'll explain it further if it's not clear [Nas and Foxy Brown] Millionaire look at the sky make sure it's still there Ice grill stares and my j**ellery is in every year Pierre Cardin back in a Dapper Dan time Now flex, angle wrecks, Foxy rock Anne Klein [Nas] Initiated to the Firm sh**, real thugs learn quick Sit back and feel the ultimate hit Initiated to the Firm sh**, real thugs learn quick Sit back and feel the ultimate hit [AZ] Yo lock in, do the knowledge, follow the doctrine We clocking, on your airwaves, keeping it rocking Blaze up, make fire, light your Purple Haze up Betcha tired, b**h a** n***as need to be caged up So raise up f** the playing, I'm sick of laying I can picture spraying off an SK, shells ricocheting Snatched up, in Supreme Court, eyes half shut Co-defendant caught a life sentence, see him crack up React what, who will, bail two mill' n***a cool still bet I'll be home before the news will Blast fuse and leave purple Frank Matthews Perhaps you confuse the concept black, cash rules Incog another HAMO- D's involved Known freeze condo seize seven keys dissolved Daily routine, speaking up for n***as who sling Hand to hand on them street corners claiming you king It's time to lock this, join with us, let your Glock spit Guzzle the toxic, only fake n***as dry snitch Get your guns out, it don't take much for me to dumb out Play one route, lay ya sh** down and run South [Nature] Here's the cause of this sh**, more statistics Deeper than the laws of physics, Malibu sand, the gorgeous b**hes Weed from 1-2-5, my whole crew live A true Desperado, one that never choose sides And show sympathy, just QB, an entity Stock exchange, top of the game, watch you mention me Image is nothing just obey your thirst I blaze the Purple Haze, sit in a daze then display a verse For those concerned or just eager to learn I speak for The Firm, when zonin' keep the cheeba to burn Stashing my riches, pa** traditions like Olympics pa** the torch flip sh** so y'all could picture my thoughts I'm drifting, it's type ill waking up looking like Phil Twenty years younger same hunger same ice grill Genetically form grade A pedigree Born to carve rhymes, a swift tongue helped to set it free Theoretically peep how we bless this, young and restless Guns and westerns, learning to connect through lessons From cool feats to camps, n***as shoot back It's a proven fact, '97's mine, y'all n***as move back [Hook]
