"My junior high school class, wish I stayed there
Illegal entrepreneur, I got my grades there
Blaming society, mad, it wasn't made fair
I would be Ivy League if America played fair"

So in the last year Nas has:
#1 one album on the billboard
Nominated for 3 Grammy Awards
Named associate publisher of Mass Appeal Magazine after venturing into the Magazine business
Launching his own sneaker store in Las Vegas
Started his own clothing line
Harvard named a fellowship in his name
I keep hearing that Nas is losing. If that's losing in life sign me up.

Put that shyt right up there with Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, Langston Hughes.
Blunts, thugs and alcohol, what a mixture
Just picture, ya life as a whole judged in court they convict ya
They telling you your state of mind, like you worthless
So he curses, his mom saying Bible verses
That's all she works with
But miracles never leave the churches
Instead, it hits the pockets of the Preacher just to purchase
A house, with a swimming pool
Labels me a sinning fool
I'm just a nikka who inherited a winning jewel
To be a trendsetter, whenever subject to respect
This and all respect through is the essential
To street life, hustlin the struggle-broke ghettos
Boiling coke settles, slow inside a glass kettle
There's a Lee V on my T.V
Lifestyles of living easy
Got my crew tense, plottin to jips, to get whips with BBS
Pushing cakes, knew anorexics with ten plates
Celebrating elevation in the seeds that we make
expect nas slander to reach a high point by certain well placed jay industry insiders in the next few days.
