Turn my headphones up
Nothing's gonna stop me now
Nothing baby
I'm here now
We're here, it's your world
Yea,

Yo, all I need is one mic, one beat, one stage, 
One nigga frontin my face on the front page.
Only if I had one gun, one girl and one crib,
One God to show me how to do things his Son did.
Pure, like a cup of virgin blood;
Mixed with 151, one sip'll make a nigga flip.
Writtin' names on my hollow tips, plottin’ shit,
mad dollars, who I'm gonna body this hood politics?
Acknowledge it, leave bodies chopped up in garbages.
Seeds watch us, grow up and try to follow us.
Police watch us, roll up and try knocking us, 
one knee I ducked, could it be my time is up? 
With my luck I got up, the cops shot again. 
Bus stop glass bursts, a fiend drops his Heineken, 
ricochetin between the spots that I'm hiding in. 
Blacking out as I shoot back, fuck gettin’ hit. 
This is my hood I’ma rep till the death of it 
til everybody come home little niggas is grown 
hood rats don't abortion your womb 
we need more warriors soon 
sent from the stars, sun, and the moon 
and its like police chasers, street sweepers and coppers 
stick of kids with no conscience leaving victims with doctors 
if you really think you're ready to die, with nines out
this is what Nas is bout, nigga the time is now 

all I need is one mic
all I need is one mic [its all I need] 
all I need is one mic [all I need]
all I need is one mic [yea] 

all I need is one blunt, one page, and one pen 
one prayer, tell God to forgive me for 1 sin 
matter fact maybe more than one 
look back at all the hatred against me 
fuck all of them, Jesus died at age 33 
that's 33 shots from twin glocks, that’s 16 a piece, that's 32 
which means, one my of guns was holdin 17 
27 hit your crew 6 went into you 
everybody gotta die sometime 
hope your funeral never get shot up 
bullets tear through the innocent 
nothing is fair niggas roll up
shooting from wheelchairs my heart is racing 
tasting revenge in the air 
I let this shit slide for too many years 
too many times now I'm strapped with a couple of mac's 
too many nines if Y'all niggas really with me 
get busy load up the semi's
do more then just hold it explode the clip until you empty 
there's nothing in our way 
they bust we bust, they rust we rust 
lead flying, feel it? I feel it in my gut 
now we take these bitches to the war 
Lie em down cause we stronger now 
my nigga the time is now

all I need is one mic [it's all I need, its all I need]
all I need is one mic [it's nothing else in the world]
all I need is one mic [it's all a nigga need to do his thing you know]
all I need is one mic 

all I need is one life, one try, one breath in one man 
what I stand for speaks for itself 
they don't understand don't wanna see me on top 
too egotistical, talking all that slick shit
the same way these bitches do
wonder what's my secrets is 
niggas'll move on you only if they know what your weakness is 
I have none; too late to grab guns, I’m blasting
cause I’m a cool nigga, thought I wouldn't have that ass done 
fooled you niggas, what you call a infinite brawl 
eternal souls clashing, war gets deep 
some beef is everlasting, complete with thick scars 
brothers knifing each other, up in prison yards 
drama, where does it start 
you know the block was ill as a youngster
every night it was like a cop would get killed 
body found in the dumpster 
for real a hustler purchased my range 
niggas throwing dirt on my name 
jealous cause fiends got their work and complain 
Bitche left me cause they thought I was finished 
shoulda knew she wasn’t true 
she came to me when her man caught a sentence 
Diamonds are blindin , I never make the same mistakes 
moving with the change of pace, a 
lighter load, see now the king is straight 
swelling my melon cause none of these niggas real 
heard he was, telling police, how can a kingpin squeal 
this is crazy I’m on the right track 
I’m finally found you need some soul searching 
the time is now 

all I need is one mic [yea yea yea]
all I need is one mic [its all I ever needed in this world, cash]
all I need is one mic [the cars, jewelry]
all I need is one mic [spread my voice to the whole world]
