Nas - Silent Murder lyrics

[Chorus: (X4)] [whisper] Silent, silent Murder [Nas] It's sort of like the conclusion, the color purple n***as is losing, confusion, with one time all pursuit moves in Grabbing n***as up in this movement to rule sh** Cop verses the block, shorties is too quick Lesson number one. If you're arrested and hung Where n***as is from gotta keep a lid on your tongue It's like silent murder, I hit blunts hard like Ray Mercer the violent words of a prince in a palace of Persia. The cognac plurger plus the trees, but whose the faul one to make his nose take a freeze, and got enough gold to rock ice in all hype. Used to be a general but just lost his stripe Pipe dreams and white feinds and all-nighters, collect calls from lifers Astoria walls with cypress, since I got a problem with the law-writers, I kick some more items just to explore horizons, the palm lady dreamt of this day so I'ma play, the crib close smokin' with the big toast and lay [Chorus] They say the arms of Nicki Barnes would be enough to blast, a lot of rich n***as fell and started pumping gas Was it the mind of CIA that bumped off Malik Shabazz f** what they teach in cla** I'ma reach the ma** Strap up, no back up, it's jungle tactics Livin' practice, out of line n***as get smacked backwards So wear it if the cap fits, fold it up money and mad clips A stack right under my matress To smoke a n***a like a Hugh Bros. motion picture n***as gettin' open cruise, won't be olding n***as April fools they laugh the jokes on the benches Cease outside my n***a spoke on his sentence [Chorus (X4)] Silent Silent, silent Murder My right handers never play too close to cameras It's nighttime scanners circle that allow gamblers Peace-making n***as pep talk the peace-makin 'n***as walk off the hot avenues with they brew. Time to get this loot countless, 'cuz sun it ain't no youth fountains n***as take cash and shoot, bounce and Pakistanians is took hostage Locked up inside a linen closet known for spending pies up What's the flavour when your neighbors do jake favours? Lock them real n***as down and lettin fake players roam around the project this lyrical logic I dilute, the weak can object the right composite We're plottin' all murderous schemes, it seems I'm ghostly called by the essence of queens the palm lady dreamt of this day, so I'ma play the crib close smokin' with the big toast and lay [Chorus (X6)] And Cain k**ed his brother Abel when God accepted Abel's offering and not his. Abel's offering showed that Cain was not giving his best to God, and Cain's jealous anger drove him to murder - drove him to murder
