Affirmative Action Remix
Nas & NTM Lyrics

Check it uhh
Listen up and pay attention

Protect this nigga for the necklace
Keep a close watch over this person because of their valuable necklace

I throw the death wish the pretty slim sex shit
I express provocative desires for sexual encounters with attractive women

The rep this remember Fox said this
Remember, my reputation was endorsed by Fox

We on some next shit we are blessed this
We are on a new level and we are fortunate to be in this position

The scares on our backs mean we met this
The scars on our backs show that we have faced challenges and overcome them

The lie for them for 25 sentence
They told lies in order to receive a prison sentence of 25 years

To keep my eyes on 'em I straight knowin' when the light shine on 'em
I continuously monitor them because I know their true intentions will be revealed

Shitty drugs and drama oppposite three pretty thugs and a don momma
They are involved in the sale of inferior drugs and are surrounded by three attractive criminals and a powerful woman

Filling' the rest, the steel in they chest
They are armed and ready to defend themselves

And Boogs threw the kiss of death, it was over
Boogs made a fatal move that ended the situation

And we laid out, chill I was open off the way he ate out
We relaxed and I was impressed by the way he consumed something

It was real, for real I was fuckin' wit' mills and he was frag-ile
It was genuine, I was involved with Mills and he was fragile

We wowin', the brown stallion
We impress with our skills and abilities

Stay stylin', on the low foulin'
We maintain our fashionable appearance while secretly engaging in questionable behavior

The whole Firm woulin', we lucked it
The entire group is acting wildly and luckily succeeding

I know the trick bitch he fuck with, on some duct shit
I am aware of the woman he is involved with, and it is a risky situation

Heard through the grade that she sucked it, Firm Sos and Esco
It was rumored in the streets that she performed oral sex, with The Firm and Sosan Esco

Mad loco, Fox and Mega for whatever and through this chedda
We are crazy and unpredictable, Fox and Mega are always there for anything and to make money

We gon' stay family, till we fry though
We will stay united as a family until death

The fam will never split even if one of us die though
The family will remain intact even in the event of someone's death

Along with our get go's, we gon' blaze til it brick-o's
We will keep going and achieve success until we have made a substantial amount of money

Peep the na na, sweet taboo
Observe and understand the intimate and unconventional nature of our activities

The Firm tattoo on the tha tha, now tell me what crew
The symbol of The Firm is on display, now identify which group we belong to

Hold it down like we do da da
Maintain control and handle situations the way we do

Till the death of this, murderous moves pursue effortless
Until the end, we effortlessly carry out deadly actions

Ice necklace, high priced dressed executives
Expensive jewelry and well-dressed individuals in positions of power

Peep the grammar, film built strong stamina
Notice the linguistic skills, the film portrays a strong endurance

Forty-four nickel plate long with the silencer
A firearm with a long barrel and a silencer

Play for keeps in shut eye you stay sleep shit
We play to win, and if you underestimate us, you will lose

Remain deep in ???? thrown at ya veins jeeps
Stay involved in illegal activities that are harmful to others

Giuliani suite got all the kings goin' up for creek
A suite owned by Giuliani attracts powerful individuals

Devil like biz now, who left his twirl in the streets
Someone engaging in shady business practices is now in a vulnerable position

No intelligence, strictly slow niggaz minds with ????
Unintelligent individuals whose minds are controlled by outside forces

It's evident, Feds mess up paid ya residents
It's clear that the Federal government has disrupted the lives of local residents

We all for livin', heavyweight Firm division
We are all about survival, and The Firm is a powerful and united group

Mine, I check mine ?Iaswines? is my religion
I prioritize my own interests, and my devotion is to my own personal beliefs

You know the stees, take aim, cock and squeeze
You know the situation, aim your weapon, prepare and fire

It's the prophecies, got the philosophies Socrates
I possess the knowledge and wisdom of the ancient philosopher Socrates

Yo I believe that's me (yo Mega represent for the family)
I believe that I am the one mentioned (Yo Mega represents the family)

Aye yo, the Feds fot me in the top ten, 'cause when my door got knocked in
Hey, the Federal agents found me on the top ten most wanted list, because they raided my home

A four four man's hoped in, my sinister mind
A man armed with a .44 caliber firearm entered, revealing my dark and malicious thoughts

Shines like a Dilinger, Mega exhaulted Babyface crime emperor
I radiate with criminal energy, and I, Mega, am revered as a leader in criminal activities

Yo life is based on cultures and creeds, and feed the way
My life is influenced by various cultures and beliefs, and they guide my actions

Be the thug nigga sess, I've seen niggaz tied up
Embrace the lifestyle of a gangster, I have witnessed people being restrained

Handcuffed and ????, cold crisis is live when drugs supply driver
Handcuffed and bound, the dangerous situation intensifies when the driver of the drug supply is present

The millennium drives up, rhymes and my blinds ya eyes temporarily
As time progresses, my lyrical abilities and actions temporarily blind you

Nas and Mega be heavily armed for felony, John you could never see
Nas and Mega are prepared for serious crimes and John, you could never understand

The next fat cat of NYC, It Was Written like ghetto life heirogriphics
I am the future influential figure in New York City, my life is depicted in the form of ghetto hieroglyphics

Livin' since my real niggaz bailed me out of prision, a lot of scams
I have been surviving since my loyal friends helped me out of prison, facing many fraudulent schemes

Cause the narcotics beamin', Queens had marked dollars
Because of the drug trade, Queens has become associated with illegal money

And the knowledge of thieves, my dream is the legacy
And the knowledge of criminals, my aspiration is to leave a lasting impact

Of my penetentary, fake thugs couldn't even take gloves to burry me
Of my time in prison, fake gangsters couldn't even handle the intensity that I experienced

To all theroughbreds takin' the corners, ya'll need to join us
To all the skilled individuals occupying street corners, you should align yourselves with us

Firm most powerful nation of rap performers, high class generals
The Firm is the dominant force in the rap industry, consisting of top-tier artists

Confidence, payin' lawyers
We have confidence in ourselves, and we can afford high-profile lawyers

Swift as Oscar Delaholia, green berett warriors
We move quickly and decisively like Oscar Delaholia, highly skilled and disciplined soldiers

Fakes I keep them like the John Kennedy tape, in the new with two
I keep fake individuals close to me, similar to how the John Kennedy tape was controversial and kept in the news with two versions

Bustin' all in they face, I'm never worried cause your see through
I openly confront them, I am never concerned because I can see through their facade

My man built the Sugar Hill from sweet tooth, we all eat
My associate was able to create wealth and success from humble beginnings, and we all benefit from it

Cause we I speak truth, uneducated black youth
Because we speak the truth, addressing the lack of education for black youth

Street diploma, teach Greeks and Romans but the legacy was stollen
My knowledge and experience come from the streets, I teach others about ancient civilizations, but their legacy was taken from them

It's a Firm thing, generally green I wrote the theme
It's a characteristic of The Firm, generally associated with money, I wrote the anthem

On how to sell a million while ya cats are mad at ya promotion team
I provide guidance on achieving commercial success, while others are envious of your marketing team

I roll with the nice as Fox, black ice pushin' whips without a license
I associate with the best, including Fox, driving expensive cars without a license

Yeah, tight as five strokes, Nas got 19 wifies
Yeah, I am as skilled as a golf player making a hole-in-one, Nas has 19 wives

Seven sheisty, nine of them Piceses
Seven are untrustworthy, nine of them are born under the astrological sign of Pisces

Three white meats under tight cheese, woulin'
Three white women are attracted to me, which causes jealousy and gossip

Big links is heavy like bricks, used to want a pitbull
My chains are large and weighty, similar to bricks, and I used to desire a pitbull dog

While feedin' them raw steak, it's core take
While feeding the dog pieces of raw steak, it's essential to their well-being

More cake, I take the time off the so-called king of the town
I accumulate more wealth, disregarding the self-proclaimed leader of the city

And lock it down
And establish control and dominance
