Nas, AZ - Mo' Money, Mo' Murder (Homicide) lyrics

We'd be bigger than the Jews
Bigger than the Irish
You can run the whole fucking country!
You could be the next John D rockerfeller
Nobody noticed us, nobody gave a shit
But the bigger we get
The more we're taking from other people

Yo, in a mahogany, black scenery
That was lightning and rain drops
I'm tied up in a basement
Cocaine spot like Bangkok i'm blindfold
Vietnam type mind control this torture
His accent sounds like the rarest culture
Askin' me, my atrophy stabbin' me gradually
Says his attribute was satanic, masonic
Ironic i felt reminded of my fast
Life ventures and winters
Blinded 'til the flashlight enters

Yo, dunn, before the sun set, call connect
Get all the TEC's
I'm vexed, this nigga stalled
For sex, lost respect, let's off his neck
My caliber got me thinkin'
On a higher algebra
See, me, I'm just as foul as ya
But you ain't got no style in ya
I'm into bigger cheddar, G's
And better, Armarett ah's, armani sweaters
Plus these crabs could never dead us

Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride
To them pearly white gates
Watch that suicide
Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride
To them pearly white gates
Watch that suicide

Now, government official got you
Sippin' Cristal in crystal
You fish, you foul
So you fell and took your fam wit' you
I'm out to get you
Guaranteed every shell will hit you
Plus I'm on some shit too
Layin' down whosoever witchu
Mafiosa, the New York City '90s era Sosa
AZ you know my culture
Now my wolves is out to ghost ya

Scent of a rose on a graveyard, for real now
The stakes is up a half a mill now
I tried to grab him with his shield down
Four walked in, they crazy paid up
Sharp but straight up gators from Barbados
Never seen nobody play those
Lay-Low's what they called him
His head baldin'
Sippin' cappuccino, spilled on
His silk suit's, was scaldin'
Laugh was vulgar
Canvas paintings of the Ayatollah
And on his arm, he wore a priceless vulture
Tobacco pipe smoker
Escobar, your life is over
Justify the righteous nova
Bullets flew out his right shoulder
Corpse leavin' a foul odor
The Firm Vol 1 adjourned
Bring it to a closure

Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just
Be yo' time you, take yo' ride
To them pearly white gates
Now watch that suicide

So now ya rollin' wit' us like co-defendants
No phony business so know the difference
From supreme soloists
It's styles ancient as Moses scriptures
It's Latin Kings
Black Kufis and White Justice amongst us
Crime invades the minds of youngsters
Where it's pitch-black, they can't see you
Godfather I I I
Four left for dead in a cathedral

Now you're forced to listen
I got the mind of a grad' from Princeton
Play your position
Or soon you'll be lost and missin'
It's far from fiction
My presence is like that of a Christian
With ammunition
Puttin' states under submission
Street addiction got me tied
In thorough with boroughs
Still in the ghetto
But in the cut where it's mellow
Incognito, on the lee-low like Carlito
‘Cause we know
Niggas don't really want us to see doe
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride
To them pearly white gates
Watch that suicide

Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride to them pearly white gates
(now) watch that suicide
Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride to them pearly white gates
(now) watch that suicide
Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride to them pearly white gates
(now) watch that suicide
Mo' money, mo' murder, mo' homicide
You catch that body, nigga
Better have that alibi
You never know, it might just be yo' time
You take yo' ride to them pearly white gates
(now) watch that suicide

Homicide, mo' homicide
Mo' suicide, mo' homicide

Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone

All alone in this wilderness
Who could figure life as ill as this?
My vision's blurred from guerillas mist
Gun sprays
Strays left a portion of my crew in graves
Niggas that would screw in ways
Unknown to these dudes today
Intelligence kept us all away
From state evidence
‘Cause it's evident this world is
Controlled on dead presidents
Never hesitant, I'm soulless
Filled with coldness
Born to uphold this 'til I'm
Left dead from oldness

Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
Born alone, die alone
