North Star Lyrics


You know God, I just been, you know what I'm sayin'?
Doin' my regular thing man
So I'ma get back up with you though baby
Know what I'm sayin'? You know you my nigga kidI'ma always come through for you baby
Yo man, you gotta understand, this shit is real though man
All the time, word, yo man, that's you man
Yo peace Rae, peace God
(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)Whassup baby? God damn, look at you man
Damn God, I got a shit out you man
Man, I done watched you man
Since you was a little crumb snatcher
A little weed-hopper running around here manLook at you baby, you look good
(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)
Understand, I watched you go through a lot of trials and tribulations
But you know something, like I used to always tell you baby
A good listener's a good learner
(G O D's my reality)I see you listened very well, understand?
(I'm elevating strong and I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)

Your time is coming baby
See sometime, it could be like, a rear view
You know what I'm sayin'?
And people don't know when their blessing comesBut I watch you grow, man you is a very intelligent man
Man, I watched you when I used to sit down and you would
Trick me out my money shootin' dice, niggaz is you crazy?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
(G O D's my reality)Crazy you crazy man
Yo Rae, you remember that shit man?
When we used to be down there in the hills and shit man?
(I'm elevating strong I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)
And you'd catch it, from Old Man FreedHe'd be yelling, "You little slick ass"
Ha ha ha ha
Talk to me baby, know what I'm sayin'?
Ha ha ha ha
I've been through all them things, man I'm watchin' you growin'But remember one thing Rae like I used to tell you
The child you was is making you the man you is today
And if you don't know where you came from baby
You damn sure know that you don't know where you going
Can you see what I'm saying? Know which way you traveling
(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)You understand? And follow that destiny, follow the light
And it'll set you free
(Oh, G O D's my reality)
'Cause I've watched you baby, you my main man, yeah
(We're elevating strong and we're going on to the highest degree)Now that could be the Wu-Tang production
Start to knuckle up and, gun shots start to click the block's duckin'
Could it be, and would it be, that we was babies
Catchin', rabies, niggaz seem to act crazyDay one, in my spot July the tenth
I had a mint, stickin' up Devine's hittin' them with nines
I was toxie, from layin up in Roxie's all night
This nigga bust a shot, lick my man's wifeIt was havoc I contact the Abbot
He shook the shoulder though
Then he passed the phat chrome automatic
We goin' to war, you know we headed to the floor
He woulda, did it, for me fuck it, let's mosieSchemin' dough, with the P.L.O., wrapped on tight
Sayin' in my mic, "Yo we gotta go"
My first impression was to add some lessons
Question, one, what made you even
Show your gun and blow the session?He replied and rocked the green eye
And yo, he started, yellin', "Them niggaz sellin' two for fives"
But he's a goner and I got my corner
What, I'm feedin' my babies, Cash Rules for mortal daughtersYeah, Rae baby
Feedin' my babies, Cash Rules for mortal daughters
Only God is the son of man
(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)I'll say it one time, and be certain that fake God does not exist
(Oh, G O D's my reality)
(I'm elevating strong we're gonna go on to the highest degree)
This is why the universe, has itself balanced the scaleOf divine knowledge, and it was measured by the portion
Of solid knowledge, no man, can judge for another
But each man must weigh all facts and circumstances
And find truth in his own judgment of righteousnessSee, the way to evil, balance equality in no man
For no man is good and bad at the same time
Either you good, or you bad

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Corey Woods (born January 12, 1970) is an American rapper most well known as Raekwon (the Chef), one of the nine Wu-Tang Clan members. Raekwon joined Wu-Tang Clan, a hip hop group based in Staten Island, New York in 1992. When the time came for him to release his first solo album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... (1995), hip-hop, once again, underwent a momentous transformation. The album moves from track to track like a film moves from scene to scene. With its invigorating instrumentals and dramatic lyrical tales, Raekwon painted vivid pictures and presented powerful imagery through his enchanting verbal expression.

Rae's groundbreaking debut album helped to bring the flavour of flossing to wax as well as the use of the moniker among Wu brethren and other prominent emcees. The single "Verbal Intercourse" featured the first appearance of Nas Escobar, Nas' alter ego. Similarly, Raekwon and Ghostface Killah, who served as Rae's partner in rhyme throughout the entire Cuban Linx album, also developed a slew of other identities. Identities like Lex Diamond, one of the flashy, witty and intellectually stimulating personas of the multifaceted Raekwon.

In the years after the release of Cuban Linx, Raekwon continued to record several albums with the Clan including the platinum Wu-Tang Forver (1997) and The W (2000), as well as the gold Iron Flag (2001). He also starred in the critically acclaimed film Black and White, before releasing his second solo album, Immobilarity in 1999. Four years later, it's time for another masterpiece from Raekwon.

The Lex Diamond Story, Raekwon's forthcoming third solo album is that desperately needed effort. This new LP is as much a reflection of his first musical triumph Cuban Linx, as it is a manifestation of the future and what is to come from this great emcee. Raekwon is like the E.F. Hutton of hip-hop: when he speaks, everyone listens. The current void in hip-hop is filled with this rap veteran's
crafty verbal gymnastics and artistic form of storytelling. The Lex Diamond Story takes the top shelf elements of the Wu's first album and the finest sentiments of Raekwon's debut and joins them together to deliver another classic album to the masses.

A lyrical gourmet meal, The Lex Diamond Story shows that The Chef still possesses the recipe to cook up a jambalaya of words with the main ingredient being superior skills. Animated and intense, Raekwon's stealth delivery is filled with emotion, skilled cadence and an array of diverse stories, hooks, and topics. The track, "All Over Again (The Way We Were)" touches on the flavour of "Can It Be All So Simple" with its tale of street survival. Meanwhile, "Pit Bull Fights" is reminiscent of the ferocious lyrical beating inflicted on "Incarcerated Scarfaces." Raekwon is indisputably at his creative beast. Unchained and uninhibited, he is assertive with his music and focused on his goals.
