Tonart: D major•
Verse 1
D
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, Nas, uh, yo, yo
Life, they wonder,
can they take me under?
Verse 2
Nah, never that, nah, yo, yo
D
I come from the housing
tenement buildings
Unlimited killings,
menaces marked for death
Better known as the projects where junkies
and rock heads dwell
Though I owe to it my success
With survival of the fittest,
everyday is a chal'
I would think I'm a part of U.S.A.
and be proud
Confronted with racism, started
D
Like, the darker you are the realer
your problems
I reached for the stars but
I just kept slipping
On this life mission,
never know what's next
Ancient kings from Egypt,
up to Julius Cezar
Had a piece of the globe, every continent
A
D
Yo, there's Asia, Africa,
Europe, France, Japan
Pakistan, America, Afghanstan
Yo, there's Protestants,
Jews, Blacks, Arabics
Call a truce, world peace,
stop acting like savages
time and think
D
The bombs and tanks makes
Em
But since the beginning of time
G
it's been men with arms fighting
Em
Lost lives in the Towers and Pentagon,
why then?
G
Must it go on, we must stop the killing
F#m
D
Em
Tell me why we die, we all God's children
Verse 3
F#m
All this hate can't last forever
It's time that we stand together
F#m

Bm
Em
Everybody wants to rule the world (what,

A
D
World (peace),
Verse 4
world (peace), world (peace), world
D
Yo, there's brothers on the block,
Em
posted up like they own it
from New York to California
Got blocks locked down
G
D
Like, "dog you safe whenever
A
you with me, see this is my town"
grows in ghettos, goes to prison
At an early age,
already know it's against him
So in order for him to survive,
one day he must
Open up his eyes to the set
backs and rise
'Cause, everybody wants a shot,
G
D
in this land of opportunity
Look at what this country's
got
There shouldn't be
nobody homeless
How can the president fix other problems
A
when he ain't fixed home yet
G
for one man to rule alone
D
To all colors increases, to home it belongs
Em
I want land, mansions, banks and gold
D
The diamonds in Africa,
oil in my control
Em
G
The world's natural resources,
all it's residuals
But then comes foes,
F#m
Em
I have to guard it with missiles
And I become the most wanted
G
But is it worth hearing a million people
D
F#m
problems and followed by Secret Service
I guess, attempts at my life
D
So move over Colin Powell
or just throw in the towel, yo
Verse 5
Em
F#m
All this hate can't last forever
(uh, c'mon)
G
It's time that we stand together
(yeah, for the world)
F#m
Em
Everybody wants to rule the world (what,
F#m
G
what, what, what, what, c'mon)
D
world (peace), world (peace), world
Em
Verse 6
D
Y'all know that's my style,
G
to hit you at the right time
D
No other compares to what
Nas write down
Tell you my dreams,
show you my pain is yours
You could get what you love,
be a chain in cause
You alive right now
There's so many that's dead or locked up inside the beast,
I'm a hot light now
It's whatever man think
G
of manifest to the real
D
The plan is to wake up 'cause time reveals
All this hate can't forever last
G
D
All my ghetto heroes in Heaven,
it's like you right here and never passed
You just transcend,
G
I know I'm goin' see you again
D
Hoping I reach the world
D
Ain't nothing without struggle,
G
listen up, it's critical
now the weapons are chemical
In Hip- Hop, the weapons are lyrical
To be the best you challenge the best,
then the blessings are spiritual
Em
G
Top of the world for
the kid and unless
Popping any rapper's head off his
Em
shoulders no contest
G
I know the Most High hear me,
so fly you can't near me
You scared of a mirror,
Em
my theory is that - knowledge is power
G
To every projects and every street corner,
D
Em
we gotta get ours now
Verse 7

Verse 8
Yo, niggas ain't forget shit,
know what I'm saying?
G
Niggas ain't forget nothing
Men, women and children killed
Em
Niggas ain't gon' forget that,
Yo, what this war just show me is
like, whatever you want out of life
Whatever you feel is rightfully yours,
go out and take it
G
Even if that means blood and death
D
You know, that's what I was raised
up on, that's what this country's about
This is what my country is,
and my country's a motherfucker
