Nas — I Already Know

[Verse 1] Man, Prince was a pimp, Apollonia, Vanity Sheila E. had me on the edge of insanity Swore if I made it in music I'd be similar Here I am, this is the future, I'm where the woman are Rocking with Tim and Bob, y'all need me, shine a spotlight up In the sky like Batman, I pops right up This is Nas, hate if you must hate Been hot since the days of cassette tapes T-shirts over the thermals dripped in our memories Sipping that Hennessy .4-5th in my denim jeans She told me she was my eyelashes When we hump, I grunt just like a bull mastiff They call me the best who ever did it Only in the club one minute guess who I slip with A chocolate dyke ghetto thing sweet We going to pop tonight, bon appetit [Chorus] Do you know who I am? And she says La lalala I already know What we can't hold hands? And she says La lalala I already know You got to leave by three? You with me? La lalala I already know So until next week? You know, ma La lalala I already know [Verse 2] You know, mirror, mirror on the wall Who's the nastiest sexiest thug of them all? I seen her in the mall, she was wearing home Degarsole keyoke mose cherry cologne She was looking very alone 'Til this big weightlifting Mr. Universe clone starts grabbing her own But she can't stop looking I'm in the zone One look at the kid she taking of her stone Cash crazy, ass crazy, hair long And baby amaze me because I'm in rare form She like an ice cold bowl of post honeycomb Followed me in the shop while I cop Nina Simone Tap me on the shoulder I told her I'm on the phone I played it off well nobody was on the cell Shit, she said the tone? She said, "Excuse me mister so and so should I leave you alone?" I said [Chorus] Do you know who I am? And she says La lalala I already know What we can't hold hands? And she says La lalala I already know You got to leave by three? You with me? La lalala I already know So until next week? You know, ma La lalala I already know [Break] Tick-tock, tick-tock time is passing Hello? Turn the television off, focus here [Verse 3] You know, lover not a fighter I'm the vagina liner re-constructor, bed sheet ruffler For you freak girls undercover who loves ya? I'm not a priest don't front for me, but step in my confessional That's the bedroom, tell the truth I'll be impressional Wait before you pass your collection plate Show me you a professional so we straight? She tried to kiss my lips, but no I don't do that Want me to kiss my lips but not with a new jack Few stacks spend my chips, yeah I do that See the problem with you women is, look I got 'em You can hear a mouse piss on cotton You don't wanna miss it then listen, stop stressing the man We out to get as much sex as we can And you roll with the plan, shorty you lie But you gotta leave, 2:45 [Chorus] Do you know who I am?

You know, ma La lalala I already know Do you know who I am? And she says La lalala I already know What we can't hold hands? And she says La lalala I already know You got to leave by three? You with me? La lalala I already know So until next week? You know, ma La lalala I already know
