[Verse I] Pull up on the side of the street I sit behind A red caravan pause Nas RewindRewind the key I Step out and yeah its dark on the streets The lights were onMusic loudHear the drum beat I know its the right place because theres no other like it Damn man do I feel lucky to be invited Knock on the door and then I ring the bell Through him I see a face as angry as Latrell Hey welcome in. Were glad youve arrived The place was hugeI was confusedI step inside Divided by sides on the left and on the right On the left was dominated by two colorsblue and bright red There were big men and beat machines Banners adorned wallsTires and green weed On the right same banners depicting these little kids A cute baby with afro a kid with Queens in the background A DJ with a turntable scratching away Sounds of the house leading into the next day [Verse II] The man walks me up to the living rooma stage Steel as the mask of MF Doomcontains A few opening acts sound checking one two Hey sir whats that hall? Who are they what are they up to? Thats hall of fame where all the greats Make their music perfectionUntil then they stay So whos in now? Lets see, Commons going live In a few minutes performing some shit from Nobody Smiles Alright, Premos working on Nas new albumYe is in Postponing SWISH againHes with Kardashian Out the window three statues cover up the moon A bunch of miniatures mimicking them around the tombs Sir? Can we take a trip out there? Nah, lets wait a moment, Kendricks out there lets show him some Well deserved respectLets walk down the steps [Verse III] The downstairs areapoorly lit and scary but I followed him regardless of the parties activities Sir where are you taking meThis is the dungeon Where the whack rappers relax and dont touch the microphone Is this my home? Only if you want it to be At that moment things became little harder to breathe There were signs on the doors in the hall of noise One hit wonders Your homeboys The lost boys Whats in the lost boys? Lets go back up Nas passes me he mustve gotten the track done Grab my keysMy coat and my wallet Hopefully Ill be back again I wanted To say, but I thought I probably wouldnt return My heartbeat burns as I pass the ferns The Graduate exits center to the Buick Felt like I forgot something, deep down I knew it Left a bit of my future on the stage and in the jail Which one I see again only time will tell
na, sir, hall, banner, respectlets
