Nas - Angel Dust Lyrics
Angels with dirty faces, angels with broken wings
The devil's dust, PCP, invaded blood streams
People lining up to get it, Fantastic knew how to flip it
Illegal substances constructing, but plus addicted
Trust it and respect it, almost got me arrested
Child prone to violence like a dog returns to its own father
The fool for chaos, taking what we can salvage
Hustling is an art, I'm just trying to be smart
Strung our bodies out in the park, Shaolin was my heart
We stood for loyalty, all we had was each other's back
My raps were like crystallized powder before crack
Raw, uncut, like what they sold in front of the store front
The sidewalk was my brother's office
We cut our losses, I had choices
I took a pen, became a voice for the voiceless
Life is short, even mines at stake
The government says that angel dust can kill you if you take it or it can cause you to kill others
The scourge of angel dust has been linked to psychosis, violence, schizophrenia, and the epidemic runs especially rampant in the Bronx. My administration will hunt down these poison pushers and arrest them one my one until we get directly to the source

Hasan Salaam did it better with this sample on his track "Angel Dust." Nas is just a thief!
I wish this was longer
LADIES AND GENTLEMAN

This is also a sample from the group success -n-effect. The the track is called angel dust. Off their 1991 album back in effect. Check it out!
Nas your the goddamn GOAT.

Common killed this beat on Games album too
Went nuts when I heard this on The Get Down. Nas hands down the GOAT. Always consistent
yo Nas on some audio dopeness!! type in D.R.U.M.S RUGGED on YouTube
It's interesting that Nas did something to this track. The Game did a song with Common called Angel and lightly touched on being influenced by angel dust while referencing his love for Chicago from a Cali perspective.
Angel Is Dust Was Actually Made For a Show And This Song Was Based On The "Angel Dust" Breakout In The Bronx Where People Were Dying Take That Stuff
