    Chorus:
    Street dreams are made of these
    Niggas push Bimmers and 300 E's
    A drug dealer's destiny is reaching a key
    Everybody's looking for something
    Street dreams are made of these
    Shorties on they knees for niggas with big cheese
    Who am I to disagree?
    Everybody's looking for something
    #StreetDreams #Nas #ItWasWritten

    Fact; This video was recorded in Vegas the same week 2Pac was in the hospital fighting for his life. 2Pac and Nas met in NY a few days prior, squashed their beef and Nas told 2Pac he would be in Vegas next week for the filming of the video. During the video shoot, Nas kept asking his manager for updates on 2Pac's health.

      @@balle733 Yes, everyone's seen the footage of Nas stopping the concert to announce his death. But you're such an idiot and like to create you're own narrative. READ what I wrote, the video was recorded the same week he was in Vegas. Remember, Pac was shot and was in the hospital for 7 days. Again, these are not my words, I'm sharing what Nas stated in an interview. GTFOH you F'n troll!

    This world is unjust. We should not come here after Nas passes to call him the GOAT. The pictures painted, wordplay, flow, poetry is flawless. Not repeating bars, every line is something different, making a whole song interesting, completely detailed. Nas is the greatest rapper of all time for real.

    I was in secondary school when I first heard this song. Till date, the trackmasters beat and the flow still blows my mind to bits. Nas to me is still the greatest (honourable mention 2pac, Kool G Rap, Rakim, JayZ, KRS1, Biggie). For me, it was always Nas, the flow, the way the words melted into these beats, the lyrics, the intelligent storytelling, witty lines. Only a genius mind can conceive this. Long live Nas.
