Prodigy & Nas - Self Conscience lyrics
rate meYo, is it ill, do it need to be fixed?<br />
(That shit is real Dunn and stop talkin' like your skills don't kill)<br />
Nah it's just that sometimes I feel like that<br />
I can write more fouler than the last<br />
<br />
Yo, that shit is cash trust me Dunn, I'll never lead you astray<br />
Take my word niggaz wanna hear how you think<br />
It be that shit that you wouldn't expect to win<br />
That stay playin' in they decks over and again<br />
<br />
Speak your thoughts, put your all in it<br />
Whatever's in your mind, spit it<br />
Place your anger on the page, release tension on the tape<br />
A stress verse, seem to be what they most thirst<br />
Makes fake niggaz disperse, they never challenge what works<br />
<br />
Balancin' the weakness, is what I specialize in<br />
Dunn you my nigga 'cause you keep me hype when I'm writin'<br />
Kept me on point in the night when it might go down<br />
Keep me eyes wide in the daytime as well<br />
Kept me focused on what's real and nuttin' else<br />
<br />
I find it healthy, to conversate with myself<br />
I kick it with my delf<br />
(I kept you alive, all these years)<br />
It's that inner voice you shoulda took head to and shit<br />
Coulda been home instead of bleedin'<br />
Maybe next time you'll listen when it speaks<br />
<br />
Yo Dunn, I got a story to tell<br />
Remember last week's mission? I told you bring the gun<br />
(Yeah, I remember)<br />
Nah listen, without me you'd be a memory<br />
I'm the one you could come to for guidance<br />
<br />
Bring you home alive when you wildin'<br />
Kept you out of harm's way, told you when to spray<br />
Told you when it's time to put it away<br />
And when the cops came, you was safe<br />
<br />
Without question, I stay aware Dunn I'm listenin'<br />
Everytime we speak it's real, I know your intention's<br />
To make sure we both safe and livin', and breathin'<br />
You gets all respect from me Dunn, believe it<br />
<br />
Yo, we got kids to raise and bills to pay<br />
Enemies to lay down when they stand in our way, it's only us<br />
(What about the click?)<br />
Now if you die is they comin'?<br />
<br />
When you shot do they feel the bullet?<br />
And when you broke can they fix it?<br />
Aight then, you keep writin'<br />
And let me do the thinkin', I brought us this far without mistaken<br />
<br />
Voices in my head from choices that I dreaded choosin'<br />
Cautions I shoulda took head, lost in my weed, steady losin'<br />
Thug stripes, badges of honor, forces to succeed<br />
Whores on they knees, fuckin' with millionaires, killers and thieves<br />
<br />
I fuck until there's no feelin' where, I bust and I pee<br />
I lusted cars but I suffered and my scars run deep<br />
I stay to myself, one deep, pray to my God 'cause He<br />
Say when it's hard get on one knee, and ask Thy for forgiveness<br />
<br />
Fuck the cash, the ice, the Ferrari's<br />
With two twenty on the dash when your life ain't right<br />
See niggaz smile up in your face and stick a knife in your back<br />
Snakes shake your hand and got his dick up in your wife back<br />
<br />
Why's it like that? It's life black, this is the game<br />
The way I see it both bitches and niggaz, is the same<br />
I trust myself, I can't fuck myself<br />
When hoes leave and no weed I still know me, just myself<br />
<br />
Fear is weakness learn from what experience teaches<br />
Beware of leaches, the vampires, my secret's<br />
Never follow, 'cause most niggaz is straight up cowards<br />
Take care of my body's the temple my mind is the power
