KRS-One - Nina (You gotta go) lyrics

We've been friends for a long time
But Nina, you gotta go

Nina, you gotta go i gotta leave you
Nina, you gotta know that I don't need you
Nina, you gotta go i gotta leave you
I gotta free you common I'ma free you

Back in the days I was
Fallen in love with you
I used to watch you, sit in the tub with you
We you used to cruise
You was right on my hip
I was 22, you was 22, that's it!
You fit so snug in my hand
The power, parents just don't understand
Ours was a love forever
You was always ready and steady
Steady and down for whatever
But, your friends were 38 and others were 45
And when they was around
I'm surprised I even survived
So don't feel bad, I'm just growing up
Career blowing up, you gotta know whats up

When M was 16 and Glock was 9
They was there with me when I stared my rhyme
But when I started the climb
And get known for rap
It seems like y'all was trying
To hold me back and not only that
You was my secret weapon, concealed weapon
We lived on the 357
Right on the corner of Smith and Wesson
When them dudes rolled up
You was the perfect blessing
But, I learned my lesson, no doubt
Every time you shout
Somebodys lights in a night go out
Yo I'm out i know what this bull is about
You want me to beef all day
So I could pull you out but


In my younger days
I used to love your figure
You used to shout every time
I pulled your trigger
But, you're getting bigger
And your feedback is only clack clack clack
And I don't need that
Its like a speed rap, I wanna slow it down
I want intelligent
Good people to come around
And they don't get down to your kind of way
See they settle their differences in
A long minded way so in the meantime
I'm a keep trying, I worked it out
Well you can stay with Mad lion
He might have work for you
I just don't want you to ever
Think that I'm deserting you but

If I got my Nina
Then you know I’m straight trippin x3
Thats why I gotta put you down
