[Puff] Escobar season has returned...
[Nas]
It's been a long time, been a long time comin
Looks like the d**h of me now
But you know, there's no turning back now
This is what makes me - this is what I am
[Puff] Feel me? Let's go
[Base Chorus: Puff Daddy]
You can hate me now.. but I won't stop now..
Cause I can't stop now.. you can hate me now..
But I won't stop now.. cause I can't stop now..
You can hate me now.. you can hate me NOWWWW..
[1st Chorus: add Nas after each pause]
Q.B., real n***as, Bravehearts, c'mon
[1st Chorus: after Nas add Puff Daddy ad lib]
Well you hate me I'm gon' hate you too
It's as simple as that
Die motherf**er die motherf**er die
You don't give a f** I don't give a f**
Go down any way you want it to go down (do it now)
Weak, jealous motherf**ers (do it now, do it now)
f** y'all!
[Verse 1]
Don't hate me, hate the money I see, clothes that I buy
Ice that I wear, clothes that I try, close your eyes
Picture me rollin, sixes, money foldin
b**hes honies that swollen to riches, Nas get in ya
Most critically acclaimed Pulitzer, prize winner
Best storyteller thug narrator my style's greater
Model dater, big threat to a lot of you haters
Commentators ringside try watchin my paper
Almost a decade, quite impressive
Most of the best is in the essence
For this rap sh** that I stand for
Expandin more to the big screen, Bill Gates dreams
But it seems you'd rather see me in jail with state greens
Want me off the scene fast, but good things last
Like your favorite MC still makin some mean cash
First rapper to bring a platinum plaque, back to the projects
But you still wanna hate
