Nas - Just a moment
Tekst :
Can we please have a moment of silence?That s for my niggaz doin years in confinement
And for my soldiers who passed over, no longer living
That couldn t run whenever the reaper came to get em
Can we please pour out some liquor?
Symobolizin , let s take in time to consider that
Though our thugs ain t here, the love is here
And we gon rep til slugs kill us here
This for my dawgs stuck in the struggle tryin to gain
Smokin trauma, sniffin Ra while sellin cocaine
Trapped in the game, not knowin how to stop and get by
To live it alive, so instead they live it to die
Can we please have a moment of peace?
For every G that fell for his flag in the streets
Bloodin and thuggin , folkin and lokin
Crypin and creepin , Latin and kingin
Or just for poor righteous teachin
[Chorus: Quan sings]
As days goes and nights fall
For the rest of our life we ll miss y all
And even though life must go on, we ll still mourn
While wishin y all were home
[Verse 2: Nas]
Yeah, and can we have another moment of silence?
For brothers who died from black-on-black violence
From here to the Dark Continent were rebels sell diamonds
To clients allover the world, got little Black girls dyin
And can we please pour some more liquors?
For Will, Bokeem, Bar, Pappy -- my niggaz
Here s another Warrior Song from Nasty and Quan
It s to him I pass the baton to carry this on
Street s Disciple, salute to those who s gone with bullets
And I promise through rhymin Quan gon rep his life to the fullest
And can we please have a moment of truth?
For soldiers and troops away with helmets and boots
And families back home who pray they make it home safe
Hopin that they don t get hit with a stray or missiles
This is just a moment to let you all know that we miss you
Mommy I m still here, wishin I was there with you
Let s take em home
[Chorus]
[Verse 3: Quan]
And can we please have a moment to mourn?
For Pac, Biggie and Pun cause through us they live on
Jam Master Jay, Freaky Ty and Alliyah
Big L and Left Eye, when we die we wish to see ya
Can we please have a moment for children?
Who got raped or murdered, or trapped in the system
Who never knew their father, never learned to dream
But was guided by drug dealers, killers and crack fiends
For single mothers that s forced to play mom and dad
Bustin her ass to give her kids shit she never had
For my niggaz in the pen hopin rhymes ll get em signed
So when released, they can say bye to a life of crime
For very mother that held a son in the street bleedin
Cryin a song of sorow to dark and deep for speakin
Just a moment outside the day to day struggle
To let the ones we really care about know that we love em
[Chorus]

Sophia
5 o clock and a fire escape symphony
Spilling out across the road and the square.
And the sky s the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks, and the trees, and the leaves reach you, there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out.
Again,...
Spilling out across the road and the square.
And the sky s the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks, and the trees, and the leaves reach you, there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out.
Again,...
Goodnight Marielin
I know it hurts to be alone
Silence of tears are living in your home
Sleep safe tonight my careless love
I will steal the stars above
Oh when you smile, I?m smiling too
I promised you your dreams will come true
Sleep safe...
Silence of tears are living in your home
Sleep safe tonight my careless love
I will steal the stars above
Oh when you smile, I?m smiling too
I promised you your dreams will come true
Sleep safe...
This is my life
This is my life
Uuuhhhh Ooohhhh yeah
You can not fly if you don t try
Only the strong survive
Just step by step
I ll never forget
I ll keep my dream alive
It s a moment of a lifetime...
Uuuhhhh Ooohhhh yeah
You can not fly if you don t try
Only the strong survive
Just step by step
I ll never forget
I ll keep my dream alive
It s a moment of a lifetime...
Pleasant
I was everything, and nothing
You were somebody, something
Please, underestimate me
I recognize your disease
You hold inside
Ingested you, digested you
I know, we can be each other s blessing
Good-bye, I m taking a lesson
Your cry, echoes pleasant
Your cry is like music.
