Bridging The Gap (缩小差距) (Album Version) - Nas[00:00:00]

The light is there[00:00:02]

See I come from Mississippi[00:00:08]

I was young and runnin' wild[00:00:11]

Ended up in New York City where I had my first child[00:00:15]

I named the boy Nasir all the boys call him Nas[00:00:21]

I told him as a youngster he'll be the greatest man alive[00:00:27]

Let's go Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey --[00:00:33]

Tribrary of these rap skits styles I mastered[00:00:44]

Many brothers snatched it up and tried to match it[00:00:46]

But I'm still number one everyday real[00:00:49]

Speak what I want I don't care what y'all feel[00:00:51]

Cause I'm my own master my Pop told me be your own boss[00:00:54]

Keep integrity at every cost and his home was Natchez Mississippi[00:00:57]

Did it like Miles and Dizzy now we gettin' busy[00:01:00]

Bridging The Gap from the blues to jazz to rap[00:01:04]

The history of music on this track[00:01:07]

Born in the game discovered my father's music[00:01:09]

Like Prince searchin' through boxes of Purple Rain[00:01:12]

But my Minneapolis was The Bridge home of the Superkids[00:01:15]

Some are well-known some doin' bids[00:01:18]

I mighta ended up on the wrong side of the tracks[00:01:20]

If Pops wouldn't've pulled me back an said yo[00:01:22]

Greatest man alive (Nas Yeah turn it up )[00:01:36]

Gre-Gre-Gre-Gre-Greatest man alive [00:01:39]

The blues came from gospel gospel from blues[00:01:50]

Slaves are harmonizin' them ah's and ooh's[00:01:53]

Old school new school know school rules[00:01:55]

All these years I been voicin' my blues[00:01:58]

I'm a artist from the start Hip-Hop guided my heart[00:02:00]

Graffiti on the wall coulda ended in Spoffard juvenile delinquent[00:02:03]

But Pops gave me the right type'a tools to think with[00:02:06]

Books to read like X and stuff[00:02:10]

Cause the schools said the kids had dyslexia[00:02:13]

In art class I was a compulsive sketcher of[00:02:16]

Teachers in my homeroom I drew pix to mess them up[00:02:18]

Cause none'a them would like my style[00:02:21]

Read more books than the curriculum profile[00:02:23]

Said Mr Jones please come get your child[00:02:26]

Cause he's writin' mad poems and his s are wild[00:02:28]

Greatest man The great-greatest man alive[00:02:33]

Hey-Hey-Hey -- My Poppa was not a Rollin' Stone[00:02:56]

He been around the world blowin' his horn still he came home[00:02:59]

Then he got grown changed his name to Olu[00:03:02]

Come on tell 'em 'bout the places you gone to[00:03:05]

I been to Saudi Arabia Mozambique[00:03:07]

Madagascar Paris Greece[00:03:09]

The Middle Africa is where we lived[00:03:11]

Better known as Queenbridge[00:03:15]

Nas Nas you don't stop[00:03:18]

Olu Dara in the house you don't stop[00:03:19]

Muddy Waters' Howling Wolf you don't stop[00:03:22]

From the Blues to Street Hop you don't stop[00:03:25]

Tell 'em Pop[00:03:27]

See I come from Mississippi (Let 'em know)[00:03:28]

I was young and runnin' wild (Runnin' wild)[00:03:30]

Ended up in New York City (Yeah )[00:03:34]

Where I had my first child (That's me)[00:03:36]

I named the boy Nasir (Yeah Daddy )[00:03:39]

All the boys call him Nas (Luh ya boy)[00:03:41]

I told him as a youngster[00:03:44]

He'll be the greatest man alive (You the greatest Pop)[00:03:46]

Greatest man alive (You the greatest Pop)[00:03:49]

Gre-Gre-Gre-Gre-Greatest man alive [00:03:52]

Rest In Peace Ray Charles[00:03:54]
