Thugz Mansion (N.Y.)(Explicit Version) - Nas[00:00:00]

I want you to close your eyes[00:00:14]

And vision the most beautiful place in the world[00:00:16]

If you in the hood on the ghetto street corner[00:00:19]

Come on this journey the best journey[00:00:22]

Some mansion acres of land and swimming pools[00:00:29]

And all that check it out[00:00:32]

I'm capable of anythin' my imagination can give me wings[00:00:34]

To fly like doves over the streets watchin' many things[00:00:37]

Kids walkin' home from school on drug blocks[00:00:40]

Missionaries pass out papers that read "Love God"[00:00:42]

I see faces cases judges and jurors[00:00:45]

Masons lawyers and cops[00:00:47]

I watch because every thug's face is my mirror[00:00:48]

But this was one in particular[00:00:50]

This kid he was the vintage stick em up pro[00:00:52]

16 years old did his jail sentence nowhere to go[00:00:54]

Every mornin' calls his comrade[00:00:57]

To come and get him to smoke[00:00:58]

He's insane already gone mad[00:01:00]

Blames himself for his setbacks[00:01:01]

Dangerous street corners where his sets at[00:01:03]

Sling from dust to dawn[00:01:05]

Detectives act like they maniacs[00:01:06]

Chasin' him his ass was flarin'[00:01:07]

Smokin' like a chimney on Remy[00:01:09]

Of course he's not carin'[00:01:11]

He need a place to go[00:01:12]

To keep his mind expandin'[00:01:14]

I give him a helpin' hand[00:01:15]

And bring him out to Thugz Mansion[00:01:17]

Every corner every city there's a place where life's a little easy[00:01:18]

Little Hennessey laid back and cool every hour 'cause it's all good[00:01:23]

Leave all the stress from the world outside[00:01:28]

Every wrong done will be alright nothin' but peace love[00:01:31]

And street passion every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion[00:01:36]

Dear Momma don't cry your baby boy's doin good[00:01:40]

Tell the homies I'm in heaven and they ain't got hoods[00:01:42]

Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night it had me shook[00:01:45]

Drippin peppermint schnapps with Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke[00:01:48]

Then some lady named Billie Holiday sang[00:01:50]

Sittin' there kickin' it with Malcolm 'til the day came[00:01:53]

Little Latasha sho' grown tell the lady in the liquor store[00:01:56]

That she's forgiven so come home[00:01:59]

Maybe in time you'll understand only God can save us[00:02:01]

When Miles Davis' cuttin' lose with the band[00:02:04]

Just think all the people that you knew in the past[00:02:07]

That passed on they in heaven found peace that last[00:02:09]

Picture a place that they exist together[00:02:12]

There has to be a place better than this in heaven[00:02:15]

So right before I sleep dear God what I'm askin'[00:02:18]

Remember this face save me a place in Thugz Mansion[00:02:20]

Every corner every city there's a place where life's a little easy[00:02:24]

Little Hennessey laid back and cool every hour 'cause it's all good[00:02:28]

Leave all the stress from the world outside[00:02:33]

Every wrong done will be alright nothin' but peace love[00:02:36]

And street passion every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion[00:02:42]

A place where death doesn't reside just thugs who collide[00:02:45]

Not to start beef but spark trees no cops rollin' by[00:02:48]

No policemen no homicide no chalk on the streets[00:02:51]

No reason for nobody's momma to cry[00:02:54]

See I'm a good guy I'm tryin' to stick around for my daughter[00:02:56]

But if I should die I know all of my albums support her[00:02:58]

This whole year's been crazy asked the Holy Spirit to save me[00:03:01]

Only difference from me and Ossie Davis gray hair maybe[00:03:04]

'Cause I feel like my eyes saw too much sufferin'[00:03:06]

I'm just twenty-some-odd years I done lost my mother[00:03:09]

And I cried tears of joy I know she smiles on her boy[00:03:12]

I dream of you more my love goes to Afeni Shakur[00:03:15]

'Cause like Ann Jones she raised a ghetto king in a war[00:03:17]

And just for that alone she shouldn't feel no pain no more[00:03:20]

'Cause one day we'll all be together sippin heavenly champagne[00:03:23]

What angels saw with golden wings in Thugz Mansion[00:03:26]

Every corner every city there's a place where life's a little easy[00:03:29]

Little Hennessey laid back and cool every hour 'cause it's all good[00:03:34]

Leave all the stress from the world outside[00:03:39]

Every wrong done will be alright nothin' but peace love[00:03:42]

And street passion every ghetto needs a Thugz Mansion[00:03:47]
