One Time 4 Your Mind (Live)

[Intro: Nas]
Slow it down
This **** feel good up here
Yeah, its Illmatic
Its Illmatic
Lets go back a little bit
[Chorus: Nas]
One time for your mind, one time
Yeah, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
Yo, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
Yo, whatever
Hey one, check, check it out
[Verse 1: Nas]
When Im chilling, I grab the buddha
Get my crew to buy beers
And watch a flick , illin and root for the villain, huh
Plus every morning, I go out and love it sort of chilly
Then I send a shorty from my block to the store for Phillies
After being blessed by the herbs essence
Im back to my rest, ten minutes, some odd seconds
Thats where I got the honey at, spends the night for ***in
Keep lubrication, Magnum protection
Hitting up my stereos remote control quickly
Ron Gs in the cassette deck, rocking the ****, G
I try to stay mellow, rock, well a cappella rhymesll
Make me richer than a slipper made Cinderella, fella
Go get your crew, Hobbes, Im prepared to bomb troops
Rip in peace to my mom dukes
When I was ten I was a hip-hoppin shorty wop
Known for rocking microphones and twisting off a 40 top
[Chorus: Nas]
One time for your mind, one time
Yeah, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
Yeah, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
[Verse 2: Nas]
You know the hard times, kid
****, cold, be starving make you wanna do crimes kid
But Ima lamp, ' cause a crime couldnt beat a rhyme
Muslims yelling 'Free the mind'
And Im from Queensbridge, been to many places
As a kid when I would say that out of town, ****** chased us
But now I know the time, got a older mind
Plus control a 9, fine, see now I represent mine
Im new on the rap scene, ****** never heard of me
Yet Im a menace, yo, police wanna murder me
Heini Dark drinker, represent the thinker
My pen rides the paper, it even has blinkers
Think Ill dim the lights, then inhale, it stimulates
Floating like Im on the North 95 Interstate
Never plan to stop, when I write my hand is hot
And expand a lot from the Wiz to Camelot
The parlayer, Ill make your heads bop, pa
I shine a light on perpetrators, like a cops car
From day to night, I play the mic and youll thank God
I wreck **** so much, the microphonell need a paint job
See, my brain is incarcerated
Live at any jam, I couldnt count all the parks Ive raided
I hold a MAC-11, and attack a reverend
I contact eleven Ls and max in heaven
[Chorus: Nas]
One time for your mind, one time
Yeah, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
Yeah, whatever
One time for your mind, one time
92 to 2099
One time for your mind, one time
One time for your mind, one time
One time for your mind, one time
