Nas - More Than I Can Say Lyrics
[Hook - Keyshia Cole]I'm trying to put it all in words, but it'sMore than I can sayEntangled with my time to tell youMore than I can sayIt's all more than I can say[Verse 1 - Nas]Bottles and El Dorados, trapped in the allureThe sickness: dreaming of richesReality was the cure. My doctorPhysician was music, I'm sureThe prescription was super-models, sandwichesAnd suicide doors. I used to stand in my mirrorFixing up my hat rightDMV don't make licenses for the fast lifeWas taught never drop my head when I'm doing rightAnd though I may be watched by feds with the blue sightsI just want the whole world to bop their headsSomeone to stop my breadIf my pops was here, he'd be like "son, you the oneThey gotta crown you, a gift from around youKnow they don't understand you, but what can they handle?If they was wearing Gucci loafers, they'd be through, overJust stay on point, do what you doSoldier: remember I'm with you when the world get colder... [Hook - Keyshia Cole]I'm trying to put it all in words, but it'sMore than I can sayEntangled with my time to tell youMore than I can sayIt's all more than I can say[Verse 2 - Nas]Keep having the same dreamAbout a mic, a gun, a cross, they allIn the middle of flamesAn hourglass of salt dripping down to it's last grainHear a voice that asks what do I claim?I ask what it means. It's sort of a tranceAs the planet Earth appears in the palm of my handsI could do what I wish with it, and waking upTo study my dreambook, see if it links upLooking for some significance, like does the dreamRepresent this cold world I'm living in?Ask my man, then his laughter beginHe had the same dream, but in his, he grabbed the gunDamn son! I told him in mine I took the micThe cross, I had it all my life, the same heightI'm trying to sneak sleep, so that my mom won't find outTime out: my body won't wind down
