It ain`t hard to tell, I excel, then prevail
The mic is contacted, I attract clientele
My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper`s breath
I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
Deep like The Shinin`, sparkle like a diamond
Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin
Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion
Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin
Cause in my physical, I can express through song
Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong
I drank Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell
From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain`t hard to tell
The buddha monk`s in your trunk, turn the bass up
Not stories by Aesop, place your loot up, parties I shoot up
Nas, I analyze, drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
School a fool well, you feel it like braille
It ain`t hard to tell, I kick a skill like Shaquille holds a pill
Vocabulary spills I`m +Ill+
plus +Matic+, I freak beats slam it like Iron Shiek
Jam like a tech with correct techniques
So analyze me, surprise me, but can`t magmatize me
Scannin while you`re plannin ways to sabotage me
I leave em froze like her-on in your nose
Nas`ll rock well, it ain`t hard to tell
This rhythmatic explosion, is what your frame of mind has chosen
I`ll leave your brain stimulated, niggaz is frozen
Speak with criminal slang, begin like a violin
End like Leviathan, it`s deep well let me try again
Wisdom be leakin out my grapefruit troop
I dominate break loops, givin mics men-e-straul cycles
Street`s disciple, I rock beats that`s mega trifle
And groovy but smoother than moves by Villanova
You`re still a soldier, I`m like Sly Stone in Cobra
Packin like a rasta in the weed spot
Vocals`ll squeeze glocks, MC`s eavesdrop
Though they need not to sneak
My poetry`s deep, I never fell
Nas`s raps should be locked in a cell
It ain`t hard to tell
