[Verse 1: Nas]
Uh, uh, uh!
Ya!
Brand new!
OK, ya!
C'mon!
Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long
I'm glad to be back
Yes I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about truth
I keep looking at the sky
'Cause its getting me high
Forget the hearse
'Cause I never die
I've got nine lives
Cat sized
Using every one of them running wild

[Hook]
'Cause I'm back
I'm back y'all
'Cause I'm back
That's right I'm back
I'm back, yes I'm back
Yes that's right
C'mon!
Cause I'm
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya
Ya, ya, ya, ya, I'm back in black
We back in black
'Cause I'm back in black

Carlos, Nas, yeah!
We got a dope beat

[Verse 2: Nas]
Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one put a bullet out my power pack
Yes I'm in a bang
I'm with a gang
They got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track
Get in the back
Nobody is going to get me on another rap
So look at me now
Just making my play
Don't try to push a button
Just get out of my way

[Hook x3]
'Cause I'm back
Ya, ya, get out of my way
'Cause I'm back
Uh, let 'em know
I'm back
Carlos Santana
'Cause I'm back
You got Nas on the crowd
'Cause I'm
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya
Ya, ya, ya, ya, I'm back in black
We back in black
'Cause I'm back in black

[Verse 3: Nas]
I can't sit here and say nobody helped me turn
Ghetto wealthy earn every cent by myself
See that type of talk is bad
Like a school yard brat
I'm making volume cash
Making all you mad
Give it all I have
Still they take too much
Ungrateful stuff
It's just too bad
And I'm just too real
I'm just too authentic
I'm just too raw to hit me
Carlos on guitar
Relentless
Makes me visualize the clubs when they spin this
So that's who I'mma ride with
In any conflict
That's not a threat
That's a promise

[Outro]
Ya, we back y'all
Ya
We back y'all
Ya
Ya, we back y'all
Nas, Carlos Santana
