Aye theres so much to decipher in King Nas....
In that first part he talking about what happened between him, Chill, and Jay when he was supposed to become the president at Atlantic...
Listen to what Chilly said happened with Jay and why Lu even signed with Atlantic.
Then this verse
Ghetto mythologies colonize my mind constantly
I shine sonically in the Chi, divine comedy
I vibe consciously to override suicide inside
Honestly 'cause they don't wanna honor me and honesty
Black king poetic with Nat King's aesthetic
Half-dream, half-machine where a black queen's get naked
For a dollar from a scholar like me
Not at all bothered by what outsider might see
Flippin, a thousand grams get dissolved in the kitchen
Heart wrenchin', part played, took away from my ascension
Crooked ways brought from car lookaways from tooken Js
But it's too late for your prevention 'cause I'm playin' my position
This migga cold...
