Artist: Nas f/ Mary J. Blige Album: Life Is Good Song: Reach Out Typed by: Gemini_20502K@Yahoo.com [Intro: Nas] DJ Hot Day! [Chorus: Mary J. Blige] This kinda love! Is a once in a lifetime groove! Reach out and touch! The love that I have for you! Awww baby! [Verse One: Mary J. Blige] I see you standin there, so lost and all alone I wanna take you in my arms, and tell you that your home I look into your eyes, I said I know ya very well I see a mirror of my life, a reflection of myself [Verse Two: Nas] 3:45AM can't sleep, can't dream, I'm stuck Money problems pop up, how will I survive Guess it's best to decide not decide, so that's my decision Whatever happens happen, I keep makin my millions Could see myself in presidential campaign dinners But I pass the blunts around a bunch of gang members When your too hood to be in them Hollywood circles And your too rich to be in that hood that birthed you And you become better than legends you thought were the greatest And outgrow women you loved and thought you would stay with Life become clearer when you wipe down your mirror And leave notes around for yourself to remember I like to teach and build With brothers about how easy it is to reach a mil, all you need is a skill Then it's grind time Imagination better than knowledge says Einstein, it's all in the mind Nasty to nicest, I'm somewhat of a psychic Just a minute after it's heard, you all will recite it You all a repeat it, so call me a genius If you didn't now that I said I forced you to think it Writin my little vignettes, sippin Moet Bitch when you vision me you vision the best When I was young they call me Olu son, now he's Nas father I was the good seed, he was the wise gardener [Chorus: Mary J. Blige] This kinda love! Is a once in a lifetime groove! Reach out and touch! The love that I have for you! Awww baby! [Verse Three: Nas] Yo! Beautiful life often I dreamed that I could bring my niggas Conservatives don't understand slang linguistics The 'burbs talkin like the hood will change with quickness Love the skinny model chicks but I prefer the thickness So what I rap about my riches and I'm ostentatious Get out of gangsta business seem to me your thoughts are basic Try to compare what you live to the life I master See the fly shit I wear you try to rock it after Big bracelets, golden Egyptian faces White wine swishes in Switzerland on vacation The strip club scene favors Josephine Baker Dope fiend neighbors growin up I've seen paper I describe it, hope you could visualize it This is reminiscent to all the parks in the projects When My British Knights can rival your foam pauses Don't make me pull my Lottos out the closet Ha Ha! [Chorus: Mary J. Blige] This kinda love! Is a once in a lifetime groove! Reach out and touch! The love that I have for you! Awww baby! [Outro: Mary J. Blige] I see you standin there, so lost and all alone I wanna take you in my arms, and tell you that your home I look into your eyes, I said I know ya very well I see a mirror of my life, a reflection of myself You remind me! Ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Yes it's true baby!!!!
