Take it to da bridge, to da muh fucking bridge.

Queensbridge in da mother fucka.

it ain't hard to tell, it ain't hard to tell

it ain't hard to tell

Verse 1

The buddha monk's in your trunk, turn the bass up

Nas, 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 the skill like Shaquille holds a pill

Vocabulary spills I'm Ill

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 sabatoge me

I leave em froze like her-on in your nose

Nas can rock well, it ain't hard to tell

Chorus



What's a beat if da ryhme don't click, i spit ryhmes like i'm sick

dying lost in a pit. The only way i can escape is by vocals,

verbalizing stripes, stabing ears like a knife called life.

The prohet of da gutter, lyrics a silk major butter, i flow never stutter,

clever poetic brothers on a mission, dishing all ne perps

to fraud. Gramps listen, to what the experts record. Burn

ya pin and pads, mics we need not, well i be packing like a

rasta in the weed spot. Hittinh ya hearts like a holatip

verbaly illing, minds muniplated my raps are nickel plated i

illistarted x rated to move out. Nas the parlayer state you

on a new route. The suicide poetry realeased from a cell

where the myths clientell i excell it ain't hard to tell.

Chorus



I blessed with the Finesse to express like shakespear

the blocks cape fear, drop metaphors when da breaks clear.

My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper's death

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 throuh 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

(Chorus)fades
