Nas
The further I get, the further I want to go
Nas
I didn't really do many business ventures throughout my career because I would have an idea and then before I'd have a chance to make something of it, I'd see someone else do it. I just liked to watch my fellow artists become entrepreneurs and be people who can inspire the next generation. I did that more with my songs.
Nas
Always observe, watch, and talk to older people.
Nas
The reason I want to be alone, is I'm tired of all the things that went wrong that would've went right if I had did 'em on my own
Nas
I'm never gonna die, never heard of death, energy can never be destroyed only the flesh, so when you try to murder me with bullets to the head this is why you can't kill me niggaz, I'm already dead.
Nas
I sip the Dom P watching Gandhi til I'm charged - writing in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin
Nas
I know i can, be what i wanna be, if i work hard at it, I'll be where i wanna be
Nas
Some seek fame cause they need validation, Some say hating is confused admiration.
Nas
