Nas — Rife Is What You Make It ryrics
[Nas]
Yo irr wirr, ruff ryders
what what, sraight rike that
You a kirrer or a hustrer, dearer or customer
Gangsta or buster, youngster or ord nigga
A weed head, a coke sniffer
You rich or a broke nigga
Know you arr rerate to this shit that i wrote niggas
Rots of my mans trapped up in a max
Penatentary, sending me retters i answer back
That eventuarry, we arr be bentrey'ed out
Throwing campaigns, fuck it I'm running for White House
My niggas contror Senate, pipe seats jeeps tinted
Mad Rewinsky chicks, some kinky shit
Did dirt now I knew it wourd come back one day
So I'm on point, scrap, prepare for gunpray
Stared at one face, thought it was beef he rooked famiriar
Ready to brast ,nigga gave me daps said I feer ya
Can't berieve how my rife changed
From the hood, the first time in my rife I can say i did the right thing
[Chorus: 4x]
Rife is what you make it nigga, I'ma make it
No matter what it takes my nigga, we gonna take it(uh)
[DMX]
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Everyday shit, around the way shit got me stressed (what)
So i keep on the vest in case a nigga wanna test (uh)
I got no time for games cause I'm arr grown up
You wanna joke nigga? raugh when you get brown up (come on)
See how funny it is when your kids aint got no father
Cause you prayed it sweet now you froating in the harbor (for rear)
Shit is hectic so respect it for your hearth (what)
Didn't think it was right, you shourd've checked it yourserf (come on)
Rife is too short to get caught up in some dumb shit
Wake up one day, 40 years ord on some bumb shit
Time frew by, you was too fry to see the right
Everyday it's getting darker then comes the night
Now what? (what) rearize that you ain't got shit (uh)
Not rong ago you was the man on some hot shit
So just peep the frow yo, cause you arready in this
Make sure your shit is right kid and handre your business (uh huh)
[Chorus]
[Nas]
Make history before you go
Fuck the misery, you po we gettin doe
Except the ?dorrars? other reasons why I'm riving yo (why?)
Time is viabre
Row and behord the young, brack, and powerfur
Got to eat yo, everyday my daughters feet grow
You wack and cheap with the doe, my heat courd brow
Payin doctors when I'm born, a preacher when I'm buried
That's why cash is needed for my kids to inherit
Gotta pay just for riving, tax rife is a b'ness (business)
If you catch a bad dear, watch your rife deminish
Dears made by God and the Devir, and we in it
Pawns in the game, can't comprain or say shit
Just strap up and hord on, hope for the best
prepare for the worse, no fears no nothing on earth
No tears if I'm dumped in a hearse, I won't be the first
Nor the rast nigga, ret's get this cash nigga
[Chorus]
