NAS - Amongst Kings lyrics

rate me

[Nas:]

First I see a flashin' light, then on my own

I hear nothin', the smell of fire in brimstone

I feel hundreds arms grabbin' me, fallin' down the hole

Is it because there is no Gravity my body leaves my Soul

Is the Devil mad at me? will I go to Hell?

Or is it Heaven that awaits me?, is too early to tell

Is it now that I'm to be judged?

Will I face thee bright tunnel warm lights?

Will embrace me before force takes me

Like I'm movin' through high winds

See my self in baby carriages, relatives and friends

Things manifest, kings from every planets rest here

Beams of light hear the voice of the Nazareth near

[Hook: Nas]

You 'Amongst Kings' from both far near land

Made in my emit son of God son of man

You came in the spirit for I am that I am

Father of all worlds fallin' angels in the land

[Nas:]

Seen my body layin' down in the ground

It was painless, didn't feel a thing

Shots ring felt the anxious to get up and run

I was atheist, committed Suicide

I wish I could erase this shit

I seen a new life before the Christ

He created night & day, the sun & moon

From the virgin woman's womb

We lookin' down at my body, emergency room

Doctors frownin' at me surgical performs, I'm doomed

It's my day of judgment, eternal peace & fire

Far past the stars far past the Orion

I asked that you forgive father, I was tryin'

Many thrones in the light but only one's truly shinin'

[Hook]

[Nas:]

Faster then the blinkin' eye, is the master or not

Face to face (uh) bitin' my case so we debate (where?)

Countin' all my sins (ok), where do we begin

When I stabbed the man in the train station or drunk gin

When I grabbed the man let the shells hit him from the Mac 10

It was all retaliation, (from what?) from way back then

Now I got the black Benz (and) trips from Aspen (and)

Disney World for my little girl and I'm askin'

You would recognize all the good deeds I'm worth (Dear God)

Send me on a trip God please the Earth

So I can deliver thou want it, stop playin'

He gave me life, I screamed out loud that "I Am..."

(Nas... Nastradamus)

[Outro: Nas]

And I saw another mighty angel come down from Heaven (I Am)

Clothe wit the cloud (Nastradamus)

And the rainbow was upon his head as a Crown (I Am)

And his face was lit as were the Sun (I Am)

And his feet as pillars of fire (Nastradamus)

And his name was Nastradamus (I Am)

(I Am Nastradamus)
