I don't respect killers, I respect O.G. knowledge, Codes of the streets got new rules, but no guidance. Lessons, detrimental to a young disciple Folks, take care of your brothers, niggas do as I do. Keep your enemies close, where they can see you. It's not your enemy who get you, it's always your own people.
Nas
Some people say I'm conscious, some say I'm a gangsta rapper - it's just me doing me. I'm stomping in my own lane. I'm doing what I do.
Nas

Through the lights cameras and action, glamour glitters and gold I unfold the scroll, plant seeds to stampede the globe.
Nas
I don't have time for the news clippings. I got my own mission.
Nas
I fell in love with words and I think that made my mom smile. I think that was cool for her.
Nas
You a slave to a page in my rhyme book.

The Internet made the world smaller, so it's easier for people to hear your music. You don't necessarily need a radio record.
Nas
I expect the hip-hop audience to be avant garde. I want them to be where I'm at or beyond where I'm at.
Nas
There's always going to be space for battle in hip hop. For competition. It's just an inseparable part of the game.
Nas
