"Something" lyrics

"Something"
(feat. Nas)

Can't start a fire without a flame
Can't play the part without a game
Can't feel the love without the pain
Can't talk to me if you talk the same

When you're burned out baby you gotta come down
Thought you had it figured out
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing

Can't have a drink without a well
Can't fall asleep without a spell
Can't feel the wind without a kite
Can't pack your bags without a knife

When you're burned out baby you gotta come down
Thought you had it figured out
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing

Ayo Tom Ford shades on, Cuervo and a shot glass
Fly eyes, pretty smile, plus she got class
I'mma show you a lil something
But here's the preview
When I speak, sparks fly like grinding metal, I'm lethal
She's hot like liquid metal in T2
Whether flats or stiletto, red carpet or ghetto
Baby I'm Nasty Nas I just had to meet you
Let's wash that back with a glass of screaming eagle
Painting pictures, writing my illest rhymes on a easel
Ladies on checking asking when I'mma see you
Miami penthouse suite crazy with the sea view
Still keep it hood like the streets I used to creep through
QB

Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
Baby I could give you something
I know how to make something out of nothing
Something, something
