    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    I sip the Dom P, watching "Gandhi" 'til I'm charged
    Then writing in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin
    To hold the mic I'm throbbin', mechanical movement
    Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with
    The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
    The fiend of hip-hop has got me stuck like a crack pipe
    The mind activation, react like I'm facin' time like
    Pappy Mason, with pens I'm embracin'
    Wipe the sweat off my dome, spit the phlegm on the streets
    Suede Timb's on my feets makes my cipher complete
    Whether crusing in a Sikh's cab, or Montero Jeep
    I can't call it, the beats make me fallin' asleep
    I keep falling, but never falling six feet deep
    I'm out for presidents to represent me (say what?)
    I'm out for presidents to represent me (say what?)
    I'm out for dead presidents to represent me
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    To my man Ill Will, God bless your life (it's yours)
    To my peoples throughout Queens, God bless your life
    I trip, we box up crazy bitches
    Aiming guns in all my baby pictures
    Beef with housing police, release scriptures that's maybe Hitler's
    Yet I'm the mild, money-getting style, rolling foul
    The versatile, honey-sticking wild golden child
    Dwelling in the Rotten Apple, you get tackled
    Or caught by the devil's lasso, shit is a hassle
    There's no days, for broke days we sell it, smoke pays
    While all the old folks pray to Jesus, soaking their sins in trays
    Of holy water, odds against Nas are slaughter
    Thinking a word best describing my life to name my daughter
    My strength, my son, the star, will be my resurrection
    Born in correction, all the wrong shit I did, he'll lead a right direction
    How you living? Large, a broker charge, cards are mediocre
    You're flipping coke or playing spit, spades and strip poker?
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    Yo, the world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    Break it down
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    I'm the young city bandit, hold myself down single-handed
    For murder raps, I kick my thoughts alone, get remanded
    Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne
    I'm deep by sound alone, caved inside, a thousand miles from home
    I need a new nigga for this black cloud to follow
    'Cause while it's over me it's too dark to see tomorrow
    Trying to maintain, I flip, fill the clip to the tip
    Picturing my peeps, now the income make my heartbeat skip
    And I'm amped up, they locked the champ up, even my brain's in handcuffs
    Headed for Indiana, stabbing women like the Phantom
    The crew is lampin', Big Willie-style
    Check the chip-toothed smile, plus I profile wild
    Stash through the flock wools, burning dollars to light my stove
    Walk the blocks with a bop, checking dames, plus the games
    People play, bust the problems of the world today
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this? (Yeah)
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    Break it down
    Yeah, aight
    To everybody in Queens, the foundation (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    To everybody uptown, yo, the world is yours (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    To everybody in Brooklyn
    Y'all know the world is yours (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    Everybody in Mount Vernon, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Long Island, yo, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Staten Island, yeah, the world is yours (it's yours)
    South Bronx, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Aight

    I'm just a worker bee
    But watch how I sting
    I ain't it in it for the bling
    I'm just tryna sing how you like the sound of my voice
    In war I'm the noise of an explosion
    With time I go nuclear
    What that mean
    It means I'm unstoppable no barricade can hold me
    Am I bold nah drugs I sold
    I got my style from the street
    The crypts I keep.
    Am I the grim reaper walking in the flesh

    quantas vezes eu tive que rever meus pensamentos
    larguei de pessoas que eu confiei por muito tempo
    isso é ser ligeiro, sempre andar certo nunca dar passo errado
    fudendo com meu futuro e com o dos novos, inimigo do estado
    como eu vou guiar alguém se nunca fui guiado?
    deis de o nascimento eu fui amaldiçoado
    destinado a estar quebrado
    quebrando o destino resolvendo agora oque será meu passado
    quero as notas vou contar até cada centavo
    aprendi nas ruas oque é ser verdadeiramente pago

    el mundo es tuyo
    el mundo es mío
    Me da lo mismo los malos comentarios
    yo solo sigo mi camino y paso, porque sé que son falsos
    como los billetes falsos, pasan por mis dedos
    pero no me mancho
    para que?,
    si en la calle conocí amigos y enemigos al derecho y al revés
    nunca sabes quien es quien
    por eso hay que cuidarse de quien quiera hacerte daño
    o te verán perder
    yo, renaceré de las cenizas como un ave fenix
    la vida que me vivo es mi sustentación de tesis,
    cada día, cada año se pone más heavy
    error y prueba todo queda detrás como un making, off
    love por mis compañeros que siempre lo han dado to`
    por los amigos en las alegrías y el dolor
    por quienes no abandonan, ni traicionan, love,
    por todos ellos, love
    Siempre fui un niño inquieto descargando mi odio
    Entre la música encontré un escape tan glorioso
    Determinación como un asesino sin estar nervioso
    Porque medio mundo es peligroso
    Y yo, no soy ningún santo, tengo la cara de niño bueno pero crecí entre los diablos
    Normalizando las cosas que pasaban a diario
    En el barrio nunca se sabe, no hay bueno ni malo
    Todos estan luchando por un sueño equilibrado
    Yo estoy soñando despierto para no perder lo que he logrado
    Soy un visionario, un fucking infiltrado
    Viviendo como si hubiera negociado con la muerte
    sin escapatoria de vivir mi propia suerte
    lo entiendes?, podré cruzar el mundo si construyo
    mi propio puente, mi propia fuente,
    inevitablemente, escribo para no sentirme ausente
    perderme bajo este cielo que oscurece
    mis ganas crecen de ser tan grande en alma, cuerpo y mente
    por que, a veces lo dudo
    sabiendo que soy bueno me angustia el futuro
    y por las huevas,
    sé que tengo mucho aunque no parezca
    tengo que enderezar mi rumbo pero por mientras
    el mundo es NUESTRO
    un pedazo de este planeta tierra.

    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    I sip the Dom P, watching "Gandhi" 'til I'm charged
    Then writing in my book of rhymes, all the words past the margin
    To hold the mic I'm throbbin', mechanical movement
    Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with
    The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
    The fiend of hip-hop has got me stuck like a crack pipe
    The mind activation, react like I'm facin' time like
    Pappy Mason, with pens I'm embracin'
    Wipe the sweat off my dome, spit the phlegm on the streets
    Suede Timb's on my feets makes my cipher complete
    Whether crusing in a Sikh's cab, or Montero Jeep
    I can't call it, the beats make me fallin' asleep
    I keep falling, but never falling six feet deep
    I'm out for presidents to represent me (say what?)
    I'm out for presidents to represent me (say what?)
    I'm out for dead presidents to represent me
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    To my man Ill Will, God bless your life (it's yours)
    To my peoples throughout Queens, God bless your life
    I trip, we box up crazy bitches
    Aiming guns in all my baby pictures
    Beef with housing police, release scriptures that's maybe Hitler's
    Yet I'm the mild, money-getting style, rolling foul
    The versatile, honey-sticking wild golden child
    Dwelling in the Rotten Apple, you get tackled
    Or caught by the devil's lasso, shit is a hassle
    There's no days, for broke days we sell it, smoke pays
    While all the old folks pray to Jesus, soaking their sins in trays
    Of holy water, odds against Nas are slaughter
    Thinking a word best describing my life to name my daughter
    My strength, my son, the star, will be my resurrection
    Born in correction, all the wrong shit I did, he'll lead a right direction
    How you living? Large, a broker charge, cards are mediocre
    You're flipping coke or playing spit, spades and strip poker?
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    Yo, the world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    Break it down
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    (It's yours)
    I'm the young city bandit, hold myself down single-handed
    For murder raps, I kick my thoughts alone, get remanded
    Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne
    I'm deep by sound alone, caved inside, a thousand miles from home
    I need a new nigga for this black cloud to follow
    'Cause while it's over me it's too dark to see tomorrow
    Trying to maintain, I flip, fill the clip to the tip
    Picturing my peeps, now the income make my heartbeat skip
    And I'm amped up, they locked the champ up, even my brain's in handcuffs
    Headed for Indiana, stabbing women like the Phantom
    The crew is lampin', Big Willie-style
    Check the chip-toothed smile, plus I profile wild
    Stash through the flock wools, burning dollars to light my stove
    Walk the blocks with a bop, checking dames, plus the games
    People play, bust the problems of the world today
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this? (Yeah)
    The world is yours, the world is yours
    It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
    Whose world is this?
    (It's yours)
    Break it down
    Yeah, aight
    To everybody in Queens, the foundation (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    To everybody uptown, yo, the world is yours (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    To everybody in Brooklyn
    Y'all know the world is yours (it's yours)
    The world is yours
    Everybody in Mount Vernon, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Long Island, yo, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Staten Island, yeah, the world is yours (it's yours)
    South Bronx, the world is yours (it's yours)
    Aight
