Nas-I Can Lyricsby Nas Buy album CD: Other Songs A - WA I know I can Be what I wanna be If I work hard at it I’ll be where I wanna be Chorus I know I can- 2x Be what I wanna be- 2x If I work hard at it- 2x I'll be where I wanna be- 2x Verse 1 Be be boys and girls listen up You can be anything in the world In god we trust An architect, doctor, maybe an actress But nothin’ comes easy It takes much practice Like I met a woman who’s becoming a star She was very beautiful Leaving people in awe Singing songs Lena Horn But the younger version Hung with the wrong person Got her strung on that heroin Cocaine sniffing up drugs All in the nose Could a died so young Now looks ugly and old No fun Cuz now when she reaches for hugs People hold they breathe Cuz she smells of corrosion and death Watch the company you keep And the crowd you bring Cuz they came to do drugs And you came to sing So if your gonna be the best I’m gonna tell you how Put your hands in the air And take the vow Chorus 4x Verse 2 Be be boys and girls listen again This is for grown lookin’ girls Who’s only 10 The ones who watch videos And do what they see As cute as can be Up in the club with fake ID Careful for you meet a man with HIV You can host a TV Like Oprah Winfrey Whatever you decide Be careful some men be Rapists, so act your age Don’t pretend to be Older than you are Give yourself time to grow You thinkin he can give you wealth But so young boys You can use a lot of help you know You thinkin life’s all about smokin weed And ice You don’t wanna be my age And can’t read and write Beggin’ different women for a place to sleep at night Smart boys turn to men and do whatever they wish If you believe you can achieve it then say it like this Chorus 4x Verse 3 Be be for we came to this country We were kings and queens Never porch monkeys There was empires in Africa, Calcush, Timbuktu Where every race came to get books To learn from black teachers Who taught Greeks and Romans Asian, Arabs and gave them gold when Gold was converted to money It all changed Money then became empowerment For Europeans The Persian military invaded They heard about the gold the teachings, and everything sacred Africa was almost robbed naked Slavery was money So they began making slave ships Egypt was the place that Alexander the Great went He was in shock that the mountains were black faces Shot up they nose to impose what basically Still goes on today you see If the truth is told The youth can grow They learn to survive Until they gain control No body says you have to be gangstas hoes Read more Learn more Change the globe Ghetto children do your thing Hold your head up little man You’re a king Young princess when you get your wedding ring Your man’ll be saying She’s my queeeen Chorus 4x
