Fetus歌词

Yeah I want all my to
Come journey with me

My name is Nas and the year is 1973

Beginning of me therefore I could see

Through my belly button window who I am

I existed in a womb just like an Abyss
Came from behind the sun my hands balled in a fist
Punching on my moms stomach
Kicking on her cervix
Twitching 'cause I'm nervous
Thought my intended purpose
Was to be born to reign not in scorn or vain
But to take on a name that my pops chose for me
Bloodstream full of indo developing eyes
Nine month process infant size
A prophet in his early stage
His mother in the early 30s
Was married to pops wishin'
What she carried would drop
I'm not worthy to come
From a women so pure Ann Jones
Flesh of her flesh blood of her blood
Her blood and bones
Hearin' prayers she askin' for my good health
That I become a man
And learn to make a way for myself
Nervous she was and her paranoia got in my blood
Mixed from my daddy's genes
Lotta screams I'm hearin' it's crazy
Both parents is scrappin'
I'm not even a baby
A miscarriage can happen

I shot my way out my mom dukes

I shot my way out my mom dukes

I shot my way out my mom dukes

I shot my way out my mom dukes
They must wanna keep me
'Cause 4 months pass I'm still alive
Guess I got what they call a I'll Will to survive
When I look hard the lights is killin' my eyes
I know when moms is layin' down
I get bored start to get live
Move side to side hear loud music and vibe
All black babies are born with rhythm
That's no lie
Solar energize
Mineralize food flowin' through my mothers tube
I'm covered in this thick layer of goo
Month two was the least most comfortable
My umbilical cord choking me
But month 3 was closer see
That's when pops took moms
To see the doc at the clinic
But I was saved
He changed his mind in the last minute
Watchin' 'em yell heard my moms voice well
Feared fist fights so terrified when we fell
While they broke up furniture
And smashed plates on the wall
I wondered if I am born will I be safe at all
This place they call the world
Though my view was so large
Couldn't wait to get out
And grow up and take charge
Month 5 Month 6 went by
Hopin' I'm born in July
But the Lord already figured out a date and time
Septemeber 14th '73
Get ready world doctors in the front waitin' for me
Arms open 'cause they know when I drop
A lot of gon' stop
See how the goverment will start re-training cops
Month 9 I'm a week over due the labor induced
Pops told my moms "Push and take deep breaths too
Stay calm" holdin' her arm I'm trying to hold on
Surgical gloves touching my scalp my head pops out
Everything is blurry my first breath screams out
Tears pouring down my pops face he's so proud
Wantin' to hold me but I was so bloody
They washed me off and he said
"At least ain't ugly"
Placed me in his arms snuggly laid me on my mother
Finally I got to see who held me in her body
She love me and yo I plan to overthrow the devil
Y'all about to see this world in trouble
