[Nas]
Word to Will, buried in his fila suit and heavy chain
I wanna be iced-up [bad word]  bury me the same
I live for street glory and I die for ghetto fame
Respect all, fear none, my pride is everything
Initials in swimming pools floors, women lose draws
[bad word] boss, never lose wars, got cheddar to floss
Guns under beds, mask and a flashlight
Living my life like everyday's my last night
Alcoholic on toilets, I [bad word] blood
Foreign cars, models and stars, life of a rich thug
Mama told me from weed, I would switch [bad word] To cocaine and hit clubs and deep-dish dubs
How would she know unless she hit the clubs, got her mack-on
Back in the 60's with an afro and her platforms
Bopping to the supremes, smoking joints
That's cool, but I'ma live how I want
 [bad word] 1]
I did it my way, from [bad word] and roaches and rats
I did it my way, converted in from hustling to raps
I did it my way, from break dancing, back spins on the
cardboard
I did it my way, to bullet proof bentleys, gats in the car's
door
I did it my way, never gave a [bad word] what nobody said
I did it my way, they hope that I fail and wished I was dead
I did it my way, if I [bad word] op it falls on me
I did it my way, I'm lucked up and [bad word] rich, now we all can
eat

[Nas]
Gateways, marble floors, chandeliers
Juzzi's, gucci soap, throwing cash in the air
Though I, still feel broke with millions in the bank
And deals on the table, I focus to stay afloat
And just to think some would die to get with I got
They think its alot, the blink of an eye, you could get shot
Niggas is [bad word] if [bad word] or not
But i be on point, put you in places where bodies rot
Never knew murder till I seen my man get popped
No blood soaking, laying there, eyes still open
I got a little closer, put my hand in his palm
He was looking right through me, Yo staring beyond
I wonder what he saw, the limoes, movies and tours
Did he die in vain and represent for the cause
Now I put his name on everything I'm involved
And that's the game, Ya'll can't relate, [bad word] ya'll (Ill Will)
 [bad word] 2]
I did it my way, from [bad word]  roaches and rats
I did it my way, converted in from hustling to raps
I did it my way, I call it how I see it niggas
I did it my way, if you don't like it so be it niggas
I did it my way, I make my [bad word]  I do my own plans
I did it my way, gangstas do what they want
Suckers do what they can't
I did it my way, taking sacrifices kid
I did it my way, but now you only getting one life to live

[Nas]
Yo, hoes in my fold can slow me, roll with the brokest homies
Cold and we hopeless lonelies, scolding my foes who phony
From blocks where coke can feed you and cops are over evil
They know some people who tell on felons who sold some diesil
Here on and blow [bad word]  its mine, knew a crew one time
'89, they took work to Caroline and blew big time
In just two years, their crew disappear
Snitches and [bad word]  smeared the paint on their pictures
Years back, I reminiscence and remember, sitting on wood
benches
Gave me splinters, just a baby [bad word] thankful
When them killers came through, guns out, moving
I think the ones who said shorty go home, we about to be
shooting
 [bad word] 1]
