Self Conscience

[Prelude: Prodigy]

Yo..

Is it ill, do it need to be fixed?

(That shit is real, dunn; and stop talkin' like your skills don't kill)

Nah, it's just that sometimes I feel like that

I can write more fouler than the last

[Verse 1: Prodigy's Conscience]

Yo, that shit is cash, trust me, dunn; I'll never lead you astray

Take my word, niggas wanna hear how you think

It be that shit that you wouldn't expect to win

That stay playin' in they decks over and again

Speak your thoughts, put your all in it

Whatever's in your mind, spit it

Place your anger on the page, release tension on the tape

A stress verse, seem to be what they most thirst

Makes fake niggas disperse, they never challenge what works

[Verse 2: Prodigy]

Balancin' the weakness, is what I specialize in

Dunn, you my nigga 'cause you keep me hype while I'm writin'

Kept me on point in the night when it might go down

Keep me eyes wide in the daytime as well

Kept me focused on what's real and nuthin' else

I find it healthy, to conversate with myself

I kick it with my delf (I kept you alive all these years)

It's that inner voice you shoulda took heed to and shit

Coulda been home instead of bleedin'

Maybe next time you'll listen when it speaks

[Verse 3: Prodigy's Conscience]

Yo, dunn, I got a story to tell

Remember last week's mission?

I told you bring the gun (Yeah, I remember) Nah, listen!

Without me, you'd be a memory

I'm the one you could come to for guidance

Bring you home alive when you wildin'

Kept you out of harm's way, told you when to spray

Told you when it's time to put it away

And when the cops came, you was safe

[Verse 4: Prodigy]

Without question, I stay aware, dunn, I'm listenin'

Everytime we speak it's real, I know your intentions

Is to make sure we both safe and livin', and breathin'

You gets all respect from me, dunn, believe it

[Verse 5: Prodigy's Conscience]

Yo, we got kids to raise and bills to pay

Enemies to lay down when they stand in our way

It's only us (What about the clique?)

Now, if you die, is they comin'?

When you shot, do they feel the bullet?

And when you broke, can they fix it?

Aight then, you keep writin'

And let me do the thinkin', I brought us this far without mistaken

[Verse 6: Nas]

Voices in my head from choices that I dreaded choosin'

Cautions I shoulda took heed, lost in my weed, steady losin'

Thug stripes, badges of honor, forced to succeed

Whores on they knees, fuckin' with millionaires, killers and thieves

I fuck until there's no feelin' where I bust and I pee

I lusted cars, but I suffered, and my scars run deep

I stay to myself, one deep, pray to my God 'cause he

Say when it's hard get on one knee, and ask Thy for forgiveness

Fuck the cash, the ice

Ferraris with two-twenty on the dash when your life ain't right

See, niggas smile up in your face and stick a knife in your back

Snake shake your hand and got his dick up in your wife back

Why's it like that? It's life, black — this is the game

The way I see it: Both bitches and niggas, is the same

I trust myself, I can't fuck myself

When hoes leave and no weed, I still know me, just myself

Fear is weakness, learn from what experience teaches

Beware of leeches, the vampires, my secrets

Never follow, 'cause most niggas is straight up cowards

Take care of my body's the temple, my mind is the power
