It ain't hard to tell I excel then prevail The mic is contacted I attract clientele My mic check is life or death Breathin a sniper's breath I exhale the yellow smoke of Buddha through righteous steps
Deep like The Shinin' Sparkle like a diamond Sneak a uzi on the island In my army jacket linin Hit the Earth like a comet invasion Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian Half-man half-amazin Cause in my physical I can express through song Delete stress like Motrin Then extend strong I drank Moet with Medusa Give her shotguns in hell From the spliff that I lift and inhale It ain't hard to tell
It ain't hard to tell
It ain't hard to tell
The buddha monk's in your trunk Turn the bass up Not stories by Aesop place your loot up Parties I shoot up Nas I analyze drop a jew-el Inhale from the L School a fool well you feel it like braille It ain't hard to tell I kick a skill like Shaquille holds a pill Vocabulary spills I'm I'll Plus Matic I freak beats slam it like Iron Shiek Jam like a tech with correct techniques So analyze me surprise me But can't magmatize me Scannin while you're plannin Ways to sabotage me I leave em froze like her-on in your nose Nas'll rock well it ain't hard to tell
It ain't hard to tell
It ain't hard to tell
This rhythmatic explosion Is what your frame of mind has chosen I'll leave your brain stimulated ****** is frozen Speak with criminal slang Begin like a violin End like Leviathan It's deep well let me try again Wisdom be leakin out My grapefruit troop I dominate break loops Givin mics men-e-straul cycles Street's disciple I rock beats that's mega trifle And groovy but smoother Than moves by Villanova You're still a soldier I'm like Sly Stone in Cobra Packin like a rasta in the **** spot Vocals'll squeeze glocks MC's eavesdrop Though they need not to sneak My poetry's deep I never fell Nas's raps should be locked in a cell It ain't hard to tell
