Shine Together lyrics - Nas & DJ Premier

Rhyme a few bars, ki-ki-kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get
Phe-phe-phenomenal
And we might as well shine together

I made moves in the trenches, lookin' over my shoulders
A fool and his riches would soon part
That's what they told us
A school of fish follows a shark
To eat his leftovers
And when that shark is hungry again
It ups the death total
Esco in that Maybach truck
Macallan Scotch in the cup
Three hundred thousand watchin' the stallion that's rollin' up
A boss is one who learn to get dough then he show you
Keep the limelight, I curves them photos, I'm Yoda
The wise one, high off the blunt smoke
Worryin' about the next man will stunt growth
Just do my shadow boxin' and jump rope
I don't front for attention for ratchet sistas
Till my casket dip, I'ma want more, just the truth trick
So many new chicks, I wish I was born with two-
Oops, I take that line back
A devil in a blue dress, I grind that
Body so crazy, they asking where I find that
Thirty-five thousand feet is where I write my rhymes at

Rhyme a few bars, ki-ki-kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get
Phe-phe-phenomenal
And we might as well shine together

Like a baby baffled
First time seein' his shadow
People react the same to what Preem and Nas will unravel
Rugged pistol holder slash government whistleblower
Repugnant information, the public should get to know us
The boroughs into Piscataway
Know my album dates
A staggerin' rise of music comin' out I calculate
'Cause when my name is mentioned, it's why the game be shiftin'
When you lames drop, the people remain indifferent
This is my dissertation, displayin' it at my leisure
Precious like postal cards written by slaves in secret
Black preachers castin' spirits back into hell
Hear the trumpets in the bible as Joshua starts to yell
Easy money is robbery in broad day
Might call BET to play my videos all day
The cribs are mini-museums
The closets are more like small department stores
I drop that raw

Rhyme a few bars, ki-ki-kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get
Pheno-nomenal
And we might as well shine together
