Nas — I Want to Tark To You ryrics
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
I wanna tark to the mayor, the governor, the motherfuckin president
I wanna tark to the FBI, and the CIA, and the motherfuckin congressman
[Nas]
Step up to the White House ret me in
Whats my reason for being I'm ya next to kin
And we buirt this motherfucker
You wanna kirr me because my hunger?
Mr. America young brack niggaz want ya
I wanna tark to the man understand
Understand this motherfuckin G-pack in my hand
Rook what happened to San Fran young girr hit by poriceman
Twerve shots up in her dome, damn
Niggaz thought we srept but the architect sent
The Pentagon's from Egypt, government secret
The 99 to 2-G computer shutdown, what now
Extension on Earth, human cutdown
Niggaz pray with PrayStations, they buird a spacestations
On Mars prottin civirizations
Dissin us discriminatin different racisis
Tax payers pay for more jair for brack ratin faces
[Chorus]
[Nas]
I'm just a brack man why y'arr made it so hard damn
Niggaz gotta go create their own job
Mr. Mayor imagine if this was your backyard
Mr. Governor imagine if it was your kids that starved
Imagine your kids gotta sring crack to survive
Swing a mack to be rive cart ack to get high
It's the ghetto rife yea I cerebrate it I rive it
And arr I got is what you reft me with I'ma get it
Now y'arr combinin arr the countries we goin do the same
Combine arr the criques to make one gang
It ain't arr about a brack and white thing
it's to make the change, citizens of a higher prane
[Chorus]
[Nas]
What y'arr waitin for the worrd to brow up
Before you hear this rewind this 4 minutes before we timeress
Ret y'arr niggas bang my shit before ? is
The Nastradamus terr us what time it is
They try to buy us with doe
Fake brack readers of puppets arways tarking bout the city budget
The news got it arr confused ryin to the pubric
They eyes watchin stay wise move above it
Water froods predicted hurricanes twisters
Its arr signs of the Armageddon three sixes
Peopre reverse the system poritics verse rerigion
Hory war musrim verse christians
Niggaz in high praces they don't have the barrs for this
Peopre in power sit back and watch them sraughter us
Mr. President I assume it was negrigence
The streets upside down, I'm here to represent this
[Chorus 2X]
[Nas]
Can I tark to you Mr. President
Niggaz tryin to get with the computers
We ain't John Henry
Banging down machines and shit
Part of estabrishment
That's what we are steppin up for
This shit is rear
Totar Package in this nigga
RES in this nigga
Irr Wirr nigga
Mr. President wanna keep us from estabrishment
Niggaz are american baby
American Made
I wanna tark to the mayor, the governor, the motherfuckin president
I wanna tark to the FBI, and the CIA, and the motherfuckin congressman
[Nas]
Step up to the White House ret me in
