Chorus: Nas, Pete Rock

[PR]Whose world is this?

[Nas]The world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

[PR]Whose world is this?

[Nas]The world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?”It’s yours!”

It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?

[Nas]The world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?

To my man Ill Will, God bless your life”It’s yours!”

To my peoples throughout Queens, God bless your life

I trip we box up crazy bitches aimin guns in all my baby pictures

Beef with housin police, release scriptures that’s maybe Hitler’s

Yet I’m the mild, money gettin style, rollin foul

The versatile, honey stickin wild, golden child

Dwellin in the Rotten Apple, you get tackled

Or caught by the devil’s lasso, shit is a hassle

There’s no days, for broke days, we sell it, smoke pays

While all the old folks pray, to Je-sus’ soakin they sins in trays

of holy water, odds against Nas are slaughter

Thinkin a word best describin my life, to name my daughter

My strength, my son, the star, will be my resurrection

Born in correction all the wrong shit I did, he’ll lead a right direction

How ya livin large, a broker charge, cards are mediocre

You flippin coke or playin spit spades in strip poker

“It’s yours!”

Chorus: Nas, Pete Rock

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

[PR]Whose world is this?

[Nas]The world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?”It’s yours!”

It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?

[Nas]Yo, the world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?”It’s yours!”

[PR]Break it down

*Pete Rock cuts and scratches “It’s yours!”*

I’m the young city bandit, hold myself down singlehanded

For murder raps, I kick my thoughts alone, get remanded

Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne

I’m deep by sound alone, caved inside in a thousand miles from home

I need a new nigga, for this black cloud to follow

Cause while it’s over me it’s too dark to see tomorrow

Trying to maintain, I flip, fill the clip to the tip

Picturin my peeps, now the end could make my heartbeat skip

and I’m amped up, they locked the champ up, even my brain’s in handcuffs

Headed for Indiana stabbin women like the Phantom

The crew is lampin big Willie style

Check the chip toothed smile, plus I profile wild

Stash through the flock wools, burnin dollars to light my stove

Walk the blocks wit a bop, checkin Danes plus the games

people play, bust the problems of the world today

“It’s yours!”

Chorus: Nas, Pete Rock

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

[PR]Whose world is this?

[Nas]The world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?”It’s yours!”

It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?

[Nas]Yeah… the world is yours, the world is yours

[PR]It’s mine, it’s mine, it’s mine

Whose world is this?”It’s yours!”

Break it down

Yea aight?

To everybody in Queens, the foundation”It’s yours!”

The world is yours

To everybody uptown, yo, the world is yours”It’s yours!”

The world is yours

To everybody in Brooklyn

Y’all know the world is yours”It’s yours!”

The world is yours

Everbody in Mount Vernon, the world is yours”It’s yours!”

Long Island, the world is yours”It’s yours!”

Staten Island, yea the world is yours”It’s yours!”

South Bronx, the world is yours”It’s yours!”

Aight

*Pete Rock keeps cuttin and scratchin “It’s yours!” to fade*
