Luyện nghe bài hát Bridging The Gap

The light is there, yeah
See I come from

Ended up in New York City, where I had my child
I the boy Nasir, all the boys call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, be the greatest man alive

go, hey hey hey hey
Tribrary of these rap skits, styles I
Many snatched it up and tried to match it
But I'm number one, everyday real
Speak what I want, I care what y'all feel
I'm my own master
My Pop told me, "Be own boss keep integrity at every cost"
And his home was Natchez
Did it Miles and Dizzy, now we gettin' busy

The Gap from the blues, to jazz, to rap
The history of music on track
Born in the game, discovered my father's
Like Prince searchin' boxes of Purple Rain
But my Minneapolis was The Bridge, home of the

Slaves are harmonizin' them ah's and
Old school, new school, know school
All these years I been my blues

Graffiti on the wall, ended in Spoffard, juvenile delinquent
But Pops gave me the type'a tools to think with

Books to read, like X and

In art class I was a compulsive of
Teachers in my homeroom, I drew pix to mess up
'Cause none'a would like my style
Read more books than the profile
Said, "Mr. please come get your child
'Cause he's writin' mad and his verses are wild"

I was in Mississippi
I was young and wild
Moved to New York City, where I had my first
I named the boy Nasir, all the call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, be the greatest man alive
Greatest man, the great-greatest man

Hey hey hey, my Poppa was not a Rollin'
He been around the world blowin' his horn, still he home

Come on, 'em 'bout all the places you gone to

I been to Arabia, Mozambique
Madagascar, Paris,
The Middle is where we lived
Better known as

Olu Dara in the house, you stop
Muddy Waters' Howling Wolf you stop
From the to Street Hop you don't stop

See I come Mississippi
I was young and runnin'
up in New York City, where I had my first child
I named the boy Nasir, all the call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, he'll be the greatest man
Greatest man alive, man alive
Rest in Ray Charles
