I Want To Talk To You - Nas
I want to talk to the mayor
the governor
To the mother fuckin president
I want to talk to the FBI and the CIA
And the mother fuckin congressman
Can I talk to to you?
VERSE 1:
Step up to the White HOuse,
let me in
What's my reason for being? I'm
your next kin
And we built this mother fucker
You want to kill me cuza
my hunger?
Mr. America, young black niggaz
want you
I want to talk to the man,
understand?
Undrstand this mother fucking "g-pack"
in my hand?
Look what happened in San Fran
Young girl hit by policeman
12 shots up in her dome damn!
Niggaz thought we slept
But the architects at the Pentagon's
from Eygpt
government secret
>From 99 to 2G computers shut
down, what now?
Extinction on earth? Human
cut down?
Niggas play with playstations
They buildin' space stations
on Mars
Plottin' civilizations
Dissin" us, discriminating
different races
Taxpayers pay for more jails for
black & Latin faces
VERSE 2:
I'm just a blck man why ya'll
make it so hard?
Damn, a nigga gotta go create his
own job
Mr. Mayor, imagine this war
your backyard
Mr. Governor, imagine it's your
kids that starve
Imagine your kids gotta slang
crack to survive
Swing a mack to be live
Cognac and get high
It's the ghetto life
Yeah I celebrate it, I live with it
An all I got Is what You left me
with, I'm gonna get it
And ya'll combining all them
countries
We gonna do the same
Combine all the dicks and make
one gang
It ain't a black and white thing
It's to make a change
Citizens of a higher plane
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
WHAT YA'LL WAITIN FOR THE WORLD TO
BLOW UP?
BEFORE YOU HEAR THIS, REWIND THIS
FOUR MINUTES BEFORE WE TIMELESS
LET YA'LL NIGGAZ BANG MY SHIT
BEFORE SADDAM HITS
LET NASTRADAMUS TELL US WHAT
TIME IT IS
THEY TRY TO BUT US WITH DOUGH
FAKE BLACK LEADERS ARE PUPPETS
ALWAYS TALKIN' ABOUT THE
CITY BUDGET
THE NEWS GOT IT ALL CONFUSSED
LYING TO THE PUBLIC
THEIR EYE IS WATCHING STAY WISE
AND MOVE ABOVE IT
WATER FLOODS PREDICTED
HURRICANES, TWISTERS
IT'S ALL SIGND OF THE ARMAGEDDON
THE 6'S
PEOPLE VS. THE SYSTEM
PLOITCIANS VS. RELIGION
HOLY WAR MUSLIMS VS. CHRISTIANS
NIGGAZ IN HIGH PLACES
THEY DONT HAVE THE BALLS FOR THIS
PEOPLE IN POWER SIT BACK AND
WATCH THEM SLAUGHTER US
MR. PRESIDENT I ASSUME IT WAS
NEGLIGENCE
BUT YOUR STRRETS ARE UPSIDE DOWN
I'M HEAR TO REPRESENT
CHORUS
