Dedicated Nas

[Intro]
Back by popular demand, it's Magic
Ded—, ded—, dedicated (Yeah)

[Verse 1]
When Carlito was dying
He see the shadow of his girl dancing with the baby
Like, "Fuck it, it's my time", but if God save me
Maybe I'll erase any vice that could potentially bring harm to me
Before I make a move, I think about it karmically
Everything come back like a boomerang
I'm black as Paul Mooney slang
And all I pray for is health and a sustainable business
And a faithful missus
I see a lot of people try to be who they ain't
We don't want money that fit in the bag, we want the bank
Just to spread it around likе icing on the cake
White tigеr out the cage, Mike Tyson in '88
Dedicated like jack boys on Melrose
Smash and grab, yo, this world became a hellhole
Stay cool is what I tell those (Word) youngins
So they don't end up in jail clothes, come on

[Chorus]
I dedicated my life, my life
Dedicated my life, my life (Dedicated)
I dedicated my— (My)
Uh, uh (You know what that is? It's the inspiration)
Dedicated my— (Uh)
