さーみんなで考えよー
うへぇ、もう11月かよ。
おまいらお元気ですか
私は生きてます
（どうでもいい）。
まだじっくり更新する
余裕は無いけど
巷で議論を呼んでる
Nasの新譜からのリーク、
その名も"Hip Hop Is Dead"を聞いてみて
あーでもないこーでもないと
考えてみといたらどうかしら。

If Hip-Hop should die before I wake,
I put an extended clip inside of my AK
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Niggas smoke, laugh, party, and die in the same corner
Get cash, live fast, body they man's momma
Rich motherfuckers is riding with three llamas
Revenge in their eyes, Hennessy and the ganja
Word to the wise, with villain state of minds
Grinding, hitting Brazilian dimes from behind
Grinding, hitting Brazilian dimes from behind
Grinding, hitting Brazilian dimes from behind
Whenever, if ever, I roll up, it's sewn up
Any ghetto will tell ya, Nas help grow us up
My face once graced promotional Sony trucks
Hundred million in billing, I help blow 'em up
Gave my niggas my right, I could have gave left
So like my girl Foxy, a nigga went Def
So niggas, who's your top ten?
Is it MC Shan? Is it MC Ren?
If Hip-Hop should die before I wake,
I put an extended clip inside of my AK
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
The bigger the cap the bigger the peelin'
Come through something ill missing a ceiling
What influenced my raps? Stick-ups and killings
Kidnappings, project buildings, drug dealings
Criticize that? Why's that? 'Cause Nas rap
Is compared to legitimized crap
'Cause we love to talk on ass we getting
Most intellectuals will only half listen
So you can't blame jazz musicians
Or David Stern with his NBA fashion issues
Oh, I think they like me - in my white tee
You can't ice me, we here for life, b
On my second marriage, Hip-Hop's my first wifey
And for that we not taking it lightly
If Hip-Hop should die, we die together
Bodies in the morgue lie together
All together now . . .
If Hip-Hop should die before I wake,
I put an extended clip inside of my AK
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Everybody sound the same
Commercialized the game
Reminiscing when it wasn't all business
It forgot where it started
So we all gather here for the dearly departed
Hip-Hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became a man and then a mobster
If it dies, let me get my last swig of vodka
RIP - we'll donate your lungs to a Rasta
Went from turntables to MP3's
From Beat Street to commercials on Mickey D's
From gold cables to Jacob's
From plain facials to Botox and facelifts
I'm looking over my shoulder
It's about eighty niggas from my hood that showed up
And they came to show love
Sold out concert and the doors'll close shut
「〜は死んだ」みたいな言い回しは
ショッキングで耳目を引くし
ある種のアーティストは
そーゆー大上段のサブジェクトで歌いたい欲求があるんだろな、
と思ったりはする。
（懐かしいよねえ、
「J-Rapは死んだ！俺が殺した」by ECD）
言っちゃったもん勝ちみたいなとこあるし。
Nasの真意はどこにあるのか、
そもそもこの命題そのものが成り立つのか、
「えぇ〜？日本ぢゃ生まれても無いのにぃ？」とか、
まぁいろいろ考えてみようぢゃないの。
