Video y letra de Affirmative Action de NAS

Affirmative Action es una melodia bastante bella. Posee un ritmo idoneo para cierto tipo de baile. La verdad, no es una cancion que digamos novedosa, pero vale la pena tenerla.

La cancion tiene sus raices en It Was Written. El video, en cambio, no es del todo bueno. El video fue una buena adaptacion.

[I ntro: AZ]

Thi s i s what… thi s what they want huh?
Thi s i s what it's all about..
What? Time t o take Affirmative Action son
They just don't understa nd, youknowI amean?
Niggaz comi n sideways thi nki n stuff i s sweet man
Yknahmean?
Niggaz don't understa nd the four devils:
Lust.. Envy.. Hate.. Jealousy
Wicked niggaz man

[AZ the Vi sualiza]
Yo, sit back relax catchi n contacts, sip your cog-nac
A nd let's all wash thi s money through thi s laundry mat
Sneak attack, a new cat sit back, wo rth t op dollar
I n fact, t ouch mi nes, a nd I'll react l ike a Rottweiler
Who pull the late, we play fo r high stakes at gunpoi nt
Catch em a nd break, undress em tie em with tape, no escape
The Co rleone, fettuci ni Capone
Roam i n your own zone o r get kidnapped a nd clapped i n your dome
We got it sewn, The Firm art of war i s unknown
Lower your t one, face it, homicide cases get blown
Ari st ocrats, politicki n daily with diplomats
See me I am an official mack, Lex Coupe triple black

[Co rmega]
Crimi nal thoughts i n the blue Po rsche, my desti ny's t o be the new boss
That nigga Paulie gotta die – he t oo soft
That nigga's dead on, a key of her-oi n, they found hi s head on
the couch with hi s dick i n hi s mouth, I put the hit out
Yo, the smoothest killer si nce Bugsy, bitches love me
A nd Queens where my drugs be, I wear Guess jeans a nd rugbies
Yo my people from Medi na they will see you
when you re-up on your heater all your cream go betweeen us
Real shit, my Desert Eagle got a ill grip
I chill with, niggaz that hit Domi nican spots a nd steal bricks
My red beam, made a dread scream, a nd sprayed a Fed team
Co rleone be turni n niggaz t o fiends
U-Conn's a nd ni nja black Lexus, 'Mega the pretty boy
with mafia connections it's The Firm nigga set it

[Nas]
Yo, my mi nd i s seei n through your design l ike bli nd fury
I shi ne jewelry sippi n on crushed grapes, we lust papes
a nd push cakes i nside the casket at Just wake
It's sickeni n, he just fi ni shed biddi n upstate
A nd now the projects, i s talki n that somebody gotta die shit
It's logic, as long as it's nobody that's i n my clique
My man Smoke, know how t o expa nd coke, a nd Mr. Coffee
Feds cost me two mill' t o get the system off me
"Li fe's a Bitch," but God-fo rbid the bitch divo rce me
I'll be flooded with ice so hellfire can't sco rch me
Cuban cigars meeti n Foxy at Demars
Movi n cars, your t op papi Seno r Escobar

[Foxy Brown]
I n the black Camaro
Firm deep all my niggaz hail the blackest sparrow
Wallabee's be the apparel
Through the darkest tunnel, I got vi sions of multimillions
i n the biggest bundle, i n the Lex pushed by my nigga Jungle
He money bags got Moet, Sean Don
Bundle of sixty-two, they ai n't got a clue what we about t o do
My whole team we shitti n hard l ike Czar
Sosa, Foxy Brown, Co rmega, a nd Escobar
I keep a fat marqui s piece, laced i n all the illest snake ski n
Armani sweaters Caroli na Hebrera
Be The Firm baby, from BK t o the 'Bridge
My nigga Wiz, operation Firm Biz, so what the deal i s
I keep a phat jew-el, sippi n Cri st-ies
Sitti n on t op of fi fty gra nd i n the Nautica Van, uhh!
We stay i ncogni' l ike all them thug niggaz i n Marcy
The Gods, they prai se Allah with vi sions of Ga ndhi
Bet it on, my whole crew i s Don Juan
On Cayman I sla nd with a case of Cri stal a nd Papa Chula spoke
Nigga with them Cubans that sno rt coke
Raw though, an ounce mixed wit leak that's pure though
Flippi n the bigger picture, the bigger nigga with the cheddar
Was mad dripper, he had a fucki n villa i n Manilla
We got t o flee t o Panama, but wait it's half a nd half
Keys i s one a nd two-fi fth, so how we flip
Thirty-two grams raw, chop it i n half, get sixteen, double it times three
We got fo rty-eight, which mean a whole lot of cream
Divide the profit by four, subtract it by eight
We back t o sixteen, now add the other two that 'Mega bri ngi n through
So let's see, i f we flip thi s other key
Then that's mo re fo r me, mad coke a nd mad leak
Plus a five hundred, cut i n half i s two-fi fty
Now triple that times three, we got three quarters of an other key
The Firm baby, volume one uhh..
