Warrior Song — текст песни (Nas)

[nas]

Uh, if I can teach somethin so dear

And hope somebody learn somethin from it

And give it back



They cant break me or shake me

They too fake to come kill me

Think they faith this was satan

They mistake me Im filthy

Rich off the ghetto madness, so now they wanna dare me

Its gonna be a murder confront me, the burners are empty

Middle passage I made it

Im from the land of david

The nazarene of bethlehem they had me wrapped in blankets

That bunch of backward gangsters

That sign of alpha davis

Snitches with smile-like faces got you blowin trial I hear this

Hopin my child can see through this tryna be a good daddy

I was there when she was born and shell be there when Im buried

Kind o waitin is scary

All my years have prepared me

What I fear is my temper, I subject to the center

Right through a mans soul

Straight through his eyes, straight through his heart

Im still alive how did I make it this far

cause I been high I been low, searchin for a way to go

Every single night I pray

And lord Im on this battleground, lost just waitin to be found

I guess its just a warriors way



[chorus: alicia keys]

This is the song, of my warriors (a warrior song)

Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior (definition of a warrior)

Gonna keep punchin on, to the sound of her own beatin drum



[nas]

Like king nasir fightin the british regime

I cant cope my existence is hope for younger teens who lost in their world

Earlier this year I buried my queen in a gold casket

Your mothers the closest thing to God that you ever have kid

Im askin, what would you do at your own moms funeral

Wanna pick her up out of it, this cant be real

Tellin my daughter grandmas gone, but I cant keep still

I cant go on, responsible for so many

Her last days at the hospital

Visits from family Im tryin not to bust shots at niggas
