Madonna - Veni Vidi Vici

[Nas:]

Madonna, life is so crazy

You've been through a lot

Gotta tell your story sometimes, you know

Seemed like yesterday I was a baby on the street

I took a Holiday, I was stepping to the beat

I had to pay my rent on the Lower East Side

I threw my tag around, let B-boys take me for a ride

I started writing songs, I kinda got Into the Groove

They tried to criticize my every single move

But then I realized I had nothing left to lose

It took me by surprise when I became the news

I was fearless like a renegade

I had a feeling that I can't explain

I didn't listen to what people said

I came, I saw, I conquered

I was constant as a northern star

I had a fire burning in my heart

I never gave up fighting in the dark

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

I Expressed myself, came Like a Virgin down the aisle

Exposed my naked ass and I did it with a smile

And when it came to S.E.X. I know I walked the Borderline

And when I struck a pose all the Gay Boys lost their minds

I Justified My Love, I made you say a little Prayer

They had me crucified, you know I had to take it there

I Opened up my Heart, I learned The Power Of Goodbye

I saw a Ray of Light, Music saved my life

I was fearless like a renegade

I had a feeling that I can't explain

I didn't listen to what people said

I came, I saw, I conquered

I was constant as a northern star

I had a fire burning in my heart

I never gave up fighting in the dark

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

[Nas:]

In 1994, I came through the door

With that raw beats versus scratches

Verbally murdered rappers

My mom's from the Carolinas

Pops from Natchez

In QB is where I started flowin'

But I was scared the cops gon' kick my apartment door in

Had a baby girl by a crazy girl

Then I got married happily of course

Then that ended in a bad divorce

I know how to pick 'em don't I?

Never gave a fuck about public pressure

Or the ridicule or "too big to lose"

Now who's the fool?

And I never been happier, no lie

I'm just your humble servant, I'm Nas

If y'all burn down Ferguson, Imma ride

My life cannot be compared to anybody

Any trappers, any rapper

Any politician, beautician or musician

Anybody, saw many bodies

Many coffins, heads or tails

Penny tossers either dead or jail

Not many option on the block I came from

And I turned to world rap messiah, spit rapid fire

And I'm goin' right back to the block I came from

One

I was fearless like a renegade

I had a feeling that I can't explain

I didn't listen to what people said

I came, I saw, I conquered

I was constant as a northern star

I had a fire burning in my heart

I never gave up fighting in the dark

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered

Ooooooooo

I came, I saw, I conquered
