Luyện nghe bài hát Bridging The Gap

The light is there, yeah
See I from Mississippi
I was and runnin' wild
up in New York City, where I had my first child
I named the boy Nasir, all the boys 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
brothers snatched it up and tried to match it
But I'm still number one, real
Speak what I want, I don't care what feel
I'm my own master
My Pop told me, "Be your own boss integrity at every cost"
And his was Natchez Mississippi
Did it like Miles and Dizzy, now we gettin'

The Gap from the blues, to jazz, to rap
The history of music on this
in the game, discovered my father's music
Like Prince searchin' through boxes of Purple
But my was The Bridge, home of the Superkids
Some are well-known, some doin'
I mighta ended up on the side of the tracks
If Pops wouldn't've pulled me back an yo

See I come Mississippi
I was and runnin' wild
Ended up in New York City, where I had my first
I named the boy Nasir, all the boys him Nas
I him as a youngster, he'll be the greatest man alive
Greatest man alive, man alive

The blues from gospel, gospel from blues
Slaves are harmonizin' them and ooh's
Old school, new school, school rules
All these years I been voicin' my
I'm a artist from the start, hip-hop guided my
Graffiti on the wall, coulda in Spoffard, juvenile delinquent
But Pops gave me the right type'a to think with

Books to read, X and stuff
'Cause the said the kids had dyslexia
In art class I was a sketcher of
Teachers in my homeroom, I drew pix to mess up
'Cause none'a them would my style
Read more books than the profile
Said, "Mr. Jones come get your child
he's writin' mad poems and his verses are wild"

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

Hey hey hey, my Poppa was not a Stone
He been around the world his horn, still he came home
he got grown, changed his name to Olu
Come on, tell 'em all the places you gone to

I to Saudi Arabia, Mozambique
Madagascar, Paris,
The Middle is where we lived
Better as Queenbridge

Nas, Nas you don't
Olu in the house, you don't stop
Muddy Waters' Howling you don't stop
From the Blues to Hop you don't stop
'em Pop

See I from Mississippi
I was young and runnin'
Ended up in New York City, where I had my first
I the boy Nasir, all the boys call him Nas
I told him as a youngster, he'll be the greatest man
Greatest man alive, gre-gre-gre-gre-greatest man
in peace Ray Charles
