The song “Eye For An Eye (Your Beef Is Mine)” by Nas, Raekwon & Mobb Deep from Mobb Deep’s “The Infamous”, 1994.
Lyrics: Chorus:
As time goes by, an eye for an eye
We in this together son your beef is mines
So long as the sun shines to light up the sky
We in this together son your beef is mines
Chorus
Verse one: prodigy
Let me start from the beginning, at the top of the list
Knowhatimean? have a situation like this
Another war story from a thirsty young hustler
Wont trust ya, Id rather bust ya, and leave your corpse
For the cops to discover, while I be dippin in the range rover
All jewelled like liberace
You watch me while jakes tryin to knock me and lock me
But Ill be on the low sippin asti spumante
Niggaz try to creep on the side of my jeep
Stuck the heat through the window rocked they ass to sleep
Over a 3-pack, it was a small thing really yeah
But keep lettin them small things slide and be a failure
If Im out of town one of my crewll take care of ya
The world is ours and your teams inferior
You wanna bust caps I get, all up in your area
Kidnap your children make the situation scarier
Life is a gamble, we scramble for money
I might crack a smile but aint a damn thing funny
Im caught up in the dirt where your hands get muddy
Plus the outcome turns out to be lovely
Got gs in my pocket hit off my main squeeze
Push back, the sunroof, let the cold air breeze
Through the butter soft leather upholestry
But mostly, keep the gat closely, cuz niggaz wanna toast me
Verse two: havoc
Yo I gotta get mines, no matter what the con-sequences
Count up my blessings, add up my weapons
Cock back the gat and let my nine serve purpose
Sling do my thing organize fiend servants
Tryin to make a mil is stress you know the deal
So we sling drills get your cap peeled, cuz everything is real
Cuz I wanna chill, laid up in a jacuzzi
Sippin bubbly, with my fingers on the uzi
Try to infiltrate my fort get caught
Dead up in new york, my brain is packed with criminal thoughts
Get your life lost never found again my friend
Mission completed, watch you drop in less than ten
On my road to the riches, hittin snitches off with mad stitches
Your last restin placell be a ditch kid
No one can stop me try your styles sloppy
Want to be me, youre just an imitation copy
My theme is all about making the green
Livin up in luxury, pushin phat whips and livin comfortably
Chorus
Verse three: nas
A drug dealers dream
Stash cream keys on a triple beam
Five hundred sl green, ninety-five nickle gleam
Condominium, thug dressed like a gentleman
Tailor made ostrich, chanel for my women friend
Murderin, numbers on your head while Im burglarin
Shank is servin em, whassup to all my niggaz swervin in
New york metropolis, the bridge brings apocalypse
Shoot at the clouds feels like, the holy beast is watchin us
Mad man my sanity is goin like an hourglass
Gun inside my bad hand I sliced tryin to bag grams
I got hoes that used to milk you
Niggaz who couldve killed you
Is down with my ill crew of psychoes
Nas escobar movin on your weak production
Pumpin corruption in the third world we just bustin
Verse four: raekwon the chef
Hold up and analyze the wildcats slang cracks
They swing an axe, the new routines, be my eyes blacks
Playin corners glancin all up in your cornea
Corner ya, seen cats snatch monies up on ya
But late night, candlelight fiend with a crack right
Its only right, feelin higher than an airplane right
Word yo, I want to get this money then blow
Take my time, blast a nine, if you front you go
Sip beers, the german ones, hand my guns to sons
Shaolin, and queensbridge we robbin niggaz for fun
But still, write my will out to my seeds then build
Mahalia sing a tale but the real we still kill
Chorus 2x
Outro: raekwon
Uhhh
Lay back
Word up, just bless em
With the bulletproof
Mobb deep, nas, chef creation
For your nation
Yeah

The best back in the day and now❤❤❤❤
Nas Escobar moving on your weak production!!
In my opinion this nas verse here is just as good as his verbal intercourse verse
That snare is GOLDEN
Nas verse is top 5 hiphop verse of all time
Insane track but Nas spits the Gospel here
RIP Prodigy! Still listen to ur tunes.. real music. Keep reppin QUEENS to death !!!
Wen rap was real
"a Drug dealer's dream" Nas knows how to set the vibe
Nas is half man half amazing
Why would you put Nas and Raekwon first in the title? It's a Mobb Deep track.
nas got the best verse. at least the best first 12 bars.
this track is like dust
