We ain't the same nikka, simple and plain
From reputation in these streets to where you sit on your plane
What you did for your fame?
How much you paid for your chains?
Tryna kick it with the Crips so he can say that he bang
You know he ain't from the gang, that nikka playin' with flames
Got a hunnid young nikkas still dealin' with pain
Put a hole in your brain just for claimin' the fame
Look, We know your type, afraid of a fade
I’m ashamed when I say it, but, shyt, a spade is a spade
And me? My transition got me showered in praise
From the streets to the stage, to changin' the game
International Nip Hussle, the current exchange
Once you travel the world, you ain't returnin' the same
Got a Persian in my place, put a bird in my safe
Conscious of rainy days, so it's only a case

Been really into this tape since I’ve been reading his un authorized biography as of late. I always liked it but it just hits so much more for me now.

Funny thing is, the outro on “be here for a while” is some shyt I ain’t really catch at first cuz I’d always skip to the next song. Now I’ll play it religiously.

nip was so thorough man, poured his life on wax. So much motivation. RIP.

I’ll be honest I slept on this tape while he was alive. The cut with Ross was nice af but I hated how the beats were unmixed.

Now I listen to the whole thing and really appreciate the wisdom. RIP Nip

yea I always preferred Crenshaw to this cuz I didn’t really like how nip changed his flow up on some songs but like you said, there’s a lot of jewels sprinkled through out his verses on these songs.
