[Verse I]
Am F ESeemed like yesterday, I was a baby on the street
Am F EI took a holiday, I was steppin to the beat
Am F EI had to pay my rent, on the lower east side
Am F EI threw my tag around, let B-boys take me for a ride
Am F EI started writing songs, I kinda got into the groove
Am F EThey tried to criticize, my every single move
Am F EBut then I realized, I had nothing left to lose
Am F EIt took me by surprise, when I became the news
[Chorus]
FI was fearless, like a renegade
C AmI had a feeling, that I can't explain
FI didn't listen, to what people said
C AmI came I saw I conquered
FI was constant, as a northern star
C AmI had a fire, burning in my heart
FI never gave up, fighting in the dark
C AmI came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
[Verse II]
Am F EI expressed myself, came like a virgin down the aisle
Am F EExposed my naked ass, and I did it with a smile
Am F EAnd when it came to sex, I knew I walked the borderline
Am F EAnd when I struck a pose, all the gay boys lost their mind
Am F EI justified my love, I made you say your little prayer
Am F EHad me crucified, you know I had to take it there
Am F EI opened up my heart, I learned the power of good-bye
Am F EI saw a ray of light, music saved my life
[Chorus]
FI was fearless, like a renegade
C AmI had a feeling, that I can't explain
FI didn't listen, to what people said
C AmI came I saw I conquered
FI was constant, as a northern star
C AmI had a fire, burning in my heart
FI never gave up, fighting in the dark
C AmI came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
[Verse III]
Am FIn 1994, I came through the door
AmWith that born beats versus scratches
FVerbally murdered rappers
Am F My mom's from the Carolina's, pops from Natchez
AmAnd QB's where I started flowing
FBut I was scared the cops was gonna kick my apartment door in
Am F Had a baby girl by a crazy girl then I got married
Am FHeavily accosted, that ended in a bad divorce
AmAnd I know how to pick 'em, don't I?
FNever gave a fuck about public pressure
AmOr the ridicule of two
Now who's the fool?
F AmAnd I ain't never been happier, no lie
FI'm just you humble servant, I'm Nas
Am F If y'all burn down Ferguson I'mma riot
Am FMy life cannot be compared to anybody
AmAny trappers, any rappers
FAny politicians, beauticians, a musician
AmAnybody, so I'm anybodies
FMany coffins, heads or tails
AmPenny tosses, we either dead or in jail
FNot many options on the block I came from
Am F Am And I turned to a rap messiah, spit rapid fire
FAnd I roll right back to the block I came from
[Chorus]
FI was fearless, like a renegade
C AmI had a feeling, that I can't explain
FI didn't listen, to what people said
C AmI came I saw I conquered
FI was constant, as a northern star
C AmI had a fire, burning in my heart
FI never gave up, fighting in the dark
C AmI came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
Dm Amoooh I came I saw I conquered
