Nas - Trust Lyrics
[Intro]
It's like a cold story repeated over and over
In the winters of my mind
This shit be real, man
Shit's crazy out here
That's my niggas over there. Word
[Verse 1]
If you scared to take chances, you'll never have the answers
I could tell the future of a dude how his stance is
Wonder will he shoot then you should study where his hands is
Is he gonna cock it and pop it? His waistband big
But he don't have that thing in him, slangin' just ain't in him
Body language is off, he's soft
But soft niggas all a sudden start dumpin', frontin'
One look could tell me if you really came to kill me
Be the quiet nigga lookin', layin' with the milli
Who dat over there, creepin'? Who homie by the tree?
Better safe than sorry, look at p-noid me
Few machine guns close, we could squeeze all three
Be a cold day in hell 'fore they creep on me
It's a lesson every premonition
Lotta niggas killed 'cause they wasn't payin' attention.
Listen
[Hook]
I want a bitch I can trust
Some niggas I can trust
Accountants lookin' over my figures I can trust
A lawyer that's fightin' for my decisions I can trust
Damn my nigga trust, I can never get enough
A Ruger I can trust, shooters I can trust
Goons that know how to spot out a Judas I can trust
And if I can't trust you, the fuck is you here for?
Some of you niggas' true colors becoming clear more
[Verse 2]
It's been so long, can't remember how we begun this war
This is a ever-lasting thunderstorm, 'cause guns went off
I see ya moms she still speak,
She don't know I ain't cool wit her son no more
It's old shit, see forever we holdin' this grudge
Takes real men to squash beef, end it with hugs
We buried our dead, been years
Why should I worry 'bout him
Constantly watchin' my back
Plus niggas tellin' I dread
Another day I put a family in black
Though I be calm and relaxed
Though I know somehow it will come back
Even if I'm in the right, 'cause still a life is a life
What was it worth to see you covered in dirt?
It's quite redundant, whether you the hunter or the hunted
Mother's cry, no statute of limitation on a homicide
Just tattoos of my niggas' names. I wonder will it change?
Let's ride
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
It's rare I listen to niggas who never been in my position
A caterpillar can't relate to what an eagle envisions
From the mind of a man who went at it with killers
Sit down little man, let me school you in hood business
Seen a lotta niggas blow, lotta dreams folded
Some wasn't humble, ate too much, got bloated
Ain't too much left to buy, bought it I'm loaded I guess
Lear jets - I ask myself do I need love or success?
They say the artist that truly suffer his stuff is the best
'Cause his heart bleed on his sleeve, pain pistols and sex
Remember spraypaintin' the word "Fresh" and then staring at it
Older folks angry, pointin', swearin' at it
Buildings I sprayed, nowadays drive the Maclaren past it
Same old man from years ago told me life is short
So from infant to geriatric, trust ya own judgment.
Live with it and love it
[Hook]

lot of niggaz dead because they wasn't paying attention. I couldn't help but to think of Nipsey getting gunned down by that coward. Nas speaks facts.
I'm revisiting this album and I must say, I enjoy it. This is one of my favorites. This brotha has so much soul. That's why I've been rockin' w/ Nasir since 1994.
Greatness humans sleep on....!!!
This is going to be my theme song when I'm around people.
The beat omg
Listen man, this dude Nas be really giving them street scriptures to live by. Rip Nipsey Hussle.
I salute you shonha. I've been listening to Nas with you for years. Feels like we're old friends.
Mike B Salute fam, peace and blessings.

Nas is half man half amazon
The realist dont need tables they need chairs......love 2 the og nasir
It took me while to really understand how good this song really is. 🔥
Nas always finds a way to shine.. a legend
That's not on spotify?
2019🔥🤟
It’s songs like this that make Nas my favorite rapper of all time!!!🔥🔥🔥
A caterpillar can’t relate to what an eagle envisions. DEEP!!!🤔🤔🤔
My nigga, trust, I can never get enough
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH !!!!
Home right now, alone on Christmas Eve listening to this with alot on my mind. Not gonna lie pretty depressed and suicide has crossed my mind. Please keep me in yall prayers...
You good bro
@Waj Ali thanks for reaching out. I've got better but I have alot of probs. I pray alot u know? It's like I do all of this praying and no1 eva talks back. Everyday I pray b4 bed I ask God to take my life but he neva does and when I wake I'm like damn I'm still here, WTF?! I wudda did it myself just don't wanna face judgement or seperation if there is a God. I type this with tears in my eyes. I truly appreciate u responding. Sometimes I just don't know what to do.
@verinb9 take it easy bro I know how you feel I'm going thru the same shit to
G.O.AT.
Your favorite rappers favorite rapper, the Langston Hughes of hip hop
Song is tight
Still listening in 2018 nov
favorite song of the album
Nasty nas!!!!
A man shouldnt be walking through life trying to find people to trust... Put your faith in the most high not any man or woman ✌
Tell that to some goon that don't care who you pray to. Trust.
@Mike B lol that's true
Wasn't a huge fan of life is good as a whole, but this track is classic Nas.
Every verse was gold
It"s rare I listen to niggas in my position, a caterpillar can"t relate to what an eagle envision......😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
HIS BEST ALBUM.
Damm this might crack my top 5 all time nas songs. That first verse is diamond.
Eastern cape South Africa Nas
this and 'sumer on smash' were my worst songs on the allbum
This is a bad song to you? Lol. You from the suburbs ain't you
right, well first, I'm actually not.
second, living conditions have nothing to do with appreciating THIS SONG. everybody faces trust issues not just people in the hood.
finally, I was not saying it was a bad song, i just said it was one of what I felt were the two least impressive tracks off Life is good so in other words, they didn't seem to work on this album.
educate yourself!
Lcarter52 This is one of my favorite joints on the album. You’re entitled to your opinion though. Judging by the comments here, I’d say you’re in the minority also.
Probably one of the best songs on the album
One of my all time favorites by Nas.
Wow that's it
“It’s quite redundant, whether you the hunter or the hunted, mothers cry, no statute of limitations on a homicide”.....
Everytime I go back to Nas album I hear s*** that Jay Z really respects Nas 444
Nas hasn't spitt irrelevant bars since I started listening to his joints back in the days.
Pecker Epps nah you just haven’t been listening smh
Trust is all you need!! this track is real talk... 🍀🍀🍀🔥🚒📛🚒📛🚒📛
Meanwhile some horseshit lil pump "song" has 50 million views . . . gross
Nas connects musically with listeners on a deeper level than artists the mainstream overplay. That's the secret to his longevity...every Esco song leaves an indelible mark. Easily the GOAT.
It ain't hard to tell Bro
One mic part 2
..is like ah kold story repeated over n. over "HALLELUYAH"
holy shit i just decided to listen to this album holy shit wow this is his best shit in a long time holy shit its really good
Cold Flow
Best LYRICIST to ever walk this earth. period
Agreed!
I agree hands down best lyricists ever
Nas 👑
Dope and deep
TRUST IS FOCUS!!!
I wanna here nas rap ova Ross or chief keef or future type beats
Rich Ə Wrych why them shits are throw away beats. They don’t last the test of time- not classics
500 years from now alot of these hip hop artists we be studied in colleges and high schools and be regarded like Shakespeare
Nas = The Goat
why this jawn sounds like the 98 99 nas?
