Nas - Victory lyrics

[Intro: DJ Khaled] They doubted me all my life Now it's victory (DJ Khaled!) [Hook: John Legend] Whatever it is, I'll pay the cost I'm willing to risk it, I'll take the loss I'll put it all on the line In a hustler's state of mind Yeah I'm gonna make history, ohhh Just so we can claim victory (victory) Ohh, victory (victory) [Interlude: DJ Khaled] Nasir! [Verse: Nas] Speedboats, three tokes and pa** it Gra** lit, hitting slopes in Aspen No coat, just an oath to stay thorough 'til we back to ashes Driven in fly sedans to the MGM Grand Picture lots of sand, two blondes, implants, Remy in hand We trying to tan, deal my cards with an honest hand A modest man, aware of any counterscam Palm trees, magnum Don Ps, LV monograms Hottest girls flew from Rio Mojitos, mucho frio, my libido Sex so strong, without the E though Hollow threats, we don't see those Higher d**h toll whenever we roll, that process is pivotal My pitiful, poverty-struck criminals will get at you Then we lounge in a Spanish-style house 'Til it all blows over, Dolce Gabbana out Contemplating, there is no bond with Satan Say a little prayer for me like Aretha Franklin For my hustlers, here's some motivation He who has begun is half done, why you waiting? I'm too impatient to pray, too much patience for stress It's too much paper to rest, f** around, you face d**h I know some n***as from Astoria That'll cut your daughter up like I used to cut a quarter up Making all the bucks, banana clips I bought in Georgia bucks k** all you f**s, easy, I be on the golf cart, sleepy Y'all beneath me Y'all be at the pawn shop, pawning watches Obnoxious, can't stop us, we shottas Say you k**ing Pablo? Impossible, nonsense Preposterous, bizarre at best, unfulfilled promises I feel intelligence is my wealth, however How enormous is Nas' pockets is a pop quiz to gossipers See me at the Oscars, looking dreamy, hood opulent Means esoteric, how I wore it, exoticness Makes you curious to see how serious my closet is Shareholders wanna invest in that Nas stock, It's just We be on that real sh**, luxury four-wheel sh** n***as acting thirst on some just-got-a-deal sh** Ha, for that victory we will k** sh** Get out the way, playboy, this is real sh** [Hook: John Legend] Whatever it is, I'll pay the cost I'm willing to risk it, I'll take the loss I'll put it all on the line In a hustler's state of mind Yeah I'm gonna make history, ohhh Just so we can claim victory (victory) Ohh, victory (victory) [Outro: John Legend] Ohh, ohh Just so we can claim victory Ohh, victory, victory, yeah Hoh, just so we can claim victory Hey yeah yeah
