Warrior Song

[Nas]

Uh, If I can teach somethin' so dear

And hope somebody learn somethin' from it

And give it back



They can't break me or shake me

They too fake to come kill me

Think they faith this was satan

They mistake me I'm filthy

Rich off the ghetto madness, so now they wanna dare me

It's gonna be a murder confront me, the burners are empty

Middle Passage I made it

I'm from the land of David

The Nazarene of Bethlehem they had me wrapped in blankets

That bunch of backward gangsters

That sign of Alpha Davis

Snitches with smile-like faces got you blowin' trial I hear this

Hopin' my child can see through this tryna be a good daddy

I was there when she was born and she'll be there when I'm buried

Kind o' waitin' is scary

All my years have prepared me

What I fear is my temper, I subject to the center

Right through a man's soul

Straight through his eyes, straight through his heart

I'm still alive how did I make it this far

'Cause I been high I been low, searchin' for a way to go

Every single night I pray

And Lord I'm on this battleground, lost just waitin' to be found

I guess it's just a warrior's way



[Chorus: Alicia Keys]

This is the song, of my warriors (A warrior song)

Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior (Definition of a warrior)

Gonna keep punchin' on, to the sound of her own beatin' drum



[Nas]

Like King Nasir fightin' the British regime

I can't cope my existence is hope for younger teens who lost in their world

Earlier this year I buried my queen in a gold casket

Your mother's the closest thing to God that you ever have kid

I'm askin, what would you do at your own mom's funeral

Wanna pick her up out of it, this can't be real

Tellin' my daughter grandma's gone, but I can't keep still

I can't go on, responsible for so many

Her last days at the hospital

Visits from family I'm tryin' not to bust shots at niggas
