No Bad Energy - Nas

I’m oblivious to you skeptics

What you hear, you ain’t never hear till I repped it

Iridescent hero’s essence, please clear the exits

I chase demons outdoors, force 'em to hear the message

Air 'em out

Heard some people discussin' my whereabouts

Yeah, it’s been a few sightings of me, a fair amount

Never seen much, but yet I’m never in the house

Move with style, wild exciting when I do step out

Y’all been rhyming for years and Jungle made a hit

Oochie Wally idea, sold a million records

Had 'em embarrassed, signed to Colombia

Blew a check, he was laughing

While y’all in the studio bragging 'bout your past and

Thinking back on trips to Manhattan, dad was rollin'

Hotels like The Plaza, black bell hops holding rich people' bags

Tip they hats to old men coming out of cabs

Limousine, holding doors for them

We all got a job to do, go for it

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy

To rappers who never sold crack, telling other peoples lives

Never shot anybody, but be shootin' people in they rhymes

Never robbed nobody or re-upped with coke in they ride

I’m probably who they talkin' 'bout when they writin' most of they lines

And I ain’t notice it, trappin' was what was happening, with bolder clique

Around me, I’m surrounded by the most devoted clique

We saw the smokers get rowdy for all the potentness

And still ain’t know how sick it was in that ocean abyss

What doesn’t come out in the wash comes out in the rinse

You suckas ain’t have no say-so

Whoever put you in a position to have a say-so should be questioned they self

I’m silk shirt, summer-time sunnies, sun chaser

Pretty girl tongue taster, southern girl luster, city girl love maker

The matinee watcher, the good weather on a Saturday afternoon shopper

Good gift copper, still miss Big Poppa

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy

No bad energy please, no bad energy
