Nas - The Success lyrics

[Produced by Jake One] [Intro: Jerry Seinfeld] The worst thing is when you get comfortable That's why success is the enemy [Verse 1] Lord forgive us, we're sinners Was poor with the other children Of course the ills that are less fortunate Support while they're k**ing Graduated from school just to live on their knees And wonder why the undergrads don't wait for summer for heat Cause a drug dealer's destiny's still reaching that key Who are y'all to disagree While everybody is looking for somethin' Where the lookouts look out and be like "cuckoo, they comin'" So it's nothin' when the income is nothin' And the heat never be on so get that heat from the oven It's humility, still humanized by these memories You and I could never eye to eye Cause my style's like 5 guillotines I'm more head then cutting off 5 foreheads 10 I seen, the tenacity of my swords edge Boy.. been built for that Seen blood get spilt for less These young bloods like a bad drug Can't find a cure, take a pill back Uh, rah rah, D.C. mean "don't come" A "dick choke" if your ho cum That was told to me by Curt Bone And that's fact, shout out Wayne and Corn', too I ain't slang in the 80's but... I feel the pain y'all went through [Verse 2] As a hustler's ambition continues All them side ways n***as try and do you like Bishop And I'm sorry if you 30, still purchasing nickels Cause I'm pushing 30 and the nickel be purchasing Wizards Like "Ted and Zach, I got the bread, let's go and chat" Man I made so much off of beanies we can go over cap El Captain of the rappers songs, get at me dog And I'm Christ' Dior with a crispy cuff over Paranorms Stuntin', oh oh, I'm stuntin' Hobo was the sh** and the bus would scoop us at Southern Avenue n***a what's up Revenue up the wazoo cause I hustle Used to listen to Wasalu I so was Kick, Pushing the product out DTLR Pardon me I'm just dwelling Pursuing the exit from the cesspool we ascended Uh tell me I ain't successful
