Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Nas, uh
Yo’, yo’, I come from the housin’ tenement buildings
Unlimited killings, menaces marked for death
Better known as the projects where junkies and rock
heads dwell
Though I owe to it my success
Well, survival of the fittest every day as a child
I would think I’m a part of you and say and be proud
In front of racism, started to foreign
Like it bother you all, now deal with your problems
I reached for the stars, but I just kept slippin’
On this life mission never know what’s next
Ain’t your king from Fiji, but the Julius Caesar
Had a piece of the globe, every continent
There was Asia, Africa, Europe, France, Japan
Pakistan, America, Afghanistan
There was Protestants, Jews, Blacks, Arabics
Call a truce, world peace, stop actin’ like savages
No war, we should take time and think
The bombs and tanks makes man kinda extinct
‘Cause since the beginnin’ of time, it’s been man with
arms fightin’
No slobs in the towers and Pentagons
Why then must we it on, we must stop the killin’
Tell me why we die, we all God’s children


All this hating lasts forever
It’s time that we stand together
Everybody wants to rule the world


Come on (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)


All those brothers on the block posted up like they
own it
That’s they Kona from New York to California
Go blocks locked down
Like dog, you safe whenever you with me
See, this is my town
So the youngstas, pros, and ghettos goes to prison
At a early age, already know what’s against them
So in order for him to survive one day
He must open up his eyes to the ???
‘Cause everybody wants a shot in this land of
opportunity
Look at what this country’s got
There shouldn’t be nobody homeless
How can the President fix other problems when he ain’t
fixed home yet
The earth wasn’t made for one man to rule alone
To all colors and creeds is to whom it belongs
I want land, mansions, banks and gold
To diamonds in Africa, oil in my control
The world’s natural resources own its residuals
But then comes foes, I have to guard it with missiles
And I become the most wanted
But is it worth hearin’ a million people problems and
followed by secret service
I guess attempts at my life are loaded
So move over Colin Powell, just throw in a towel, yo’


All this hating lasts forever
It’s time that we stand together
Everybody wants to rule the world


Come on (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)
Peace (World...world....world...)


Young harass my style and hit you at the right time
No other compares to what Nas write down
Tell you my dreams, show you my pain is yours
You could get what you love, be a chain to cause
You’re alive right now
There’s so many that’s dead or locked up inside the
beast
I’mma holler it now
It’s whatever man think’ll manifest to the real
The plan is to wake up ‘cause time reveals
All this hate can’t forever last
All my ghetto heroes in heaven it’s like you right
here and never passed
You just transcend, I know I’m gonna see you again
Hopin’ I’ll reach the world ears and win
Ain’t nothin’ without struggle, listen up, it’s
critical
We used to fear arms, now the weapons are chemical
In hip-hop the weapons are lyrical
To be the best you challenge the rest, and the blessed
keeps it spiritual
Top of the world for the kid none less
Shoot any Rappers head off his shoulders, no contest
I know the most high hear me, so fly you can’t hear me
You scared of a mirror
My theory is that Nas is peril
To every projects and every street corner
We gotta get out of this now


All this hating lasts forever
It’s time that we stand together
Everybody wants to rule the world
