It Ain't Hard To Tell - Explicit Album Version
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
It ain't hard to tell, I excel, then prevail
The mic is contacted, I attract clientele
My mic check is life or death, breathin' a sniper's breath
I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
Deep like The Shining, sparkle like a diamond
Sneak a Uzi on the island in my army jacket linin'
Hit the Earth like a comet-, invasion!
Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin'
'Cause in my physical, I can express through song
Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong
I drink Moët with Medusa, give her shotguns in Hell
From the spliff that I lift and inhale; it ain't hard to tell
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
The buddha monk's in your trunk, turn the bass up
Not stories by Aesop
Place your loot up, parties I shoot up
Nas, I analyze, drop a jew-el, inhale from the L
School a fool well, you feel it like Braille
It ain't hard to tell
I kick a skill, like Shaquille holds a pill
Vocabulary spills, I'm Ill plus Matic
I freak beats, slam it, like Iron Sheik
Jam like a TEC with correct techniques
So analyze me, surprise me, but can't magmatize me
Scannin' while you're plannin' ways to sabotage me
I leave 'em froze, like heroin in your nose
Nas will rock well; it ain't hard to tell
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
This rhythmatic explosion
Is what your frame of mind has chosen
I'll leave your brain stimulated, niggas is frozen
Speak with criminal slang, begin like a violin
End like Leviathan, it's deep? Well, let me try again
Wisdom be leakin' out my grapefruit, troop
I dominate break loops, givin' mics men-e-strual cycles
Street's disciple, I rock beats that's mega trifle
And groove even smoother than moves by Villanova
You're still a soldier, I'm like Sly Stone in Cobra
Packin' like a Rasta in the weed spot
Vocals will squeeze Glocks
MCs eavesdrop, though they need not to sneak
My poetry's deep, I never fell
Nas' raps should be locked in a cell; it ain't hard to tell
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da (yeah!)
