Im struggling to find a song more lyrically complex than this. Every line fits in its place perfectly. Amazing story telling rap. Yall got anything that comes close to this?
Lets Talk About Nas. Specifically Rewind

On a different beat this is a great song. Never thought much of it despite the numerous times I ran back Stillmatic. Then I heard few other dudes take their try at it and beats matched so well with the lyrics I was like

Im pretty sure we've all heard of or seen Memento, but that doesnt detract from the originality or just the unbridled dopenicity of the song.

Man I love Nas appreciation threads
He has some great unique story telling songs
Rapping as a:
Gun
Baby in his mothers womb
A Female (I forget which streets disciple song it was)
Letter to homie in jail
little kid staring out his window
his pops being unfaithful
The songs for his mom and daughter
Reminiscing on all his past chicks
A detective tryna find out who killed hip hop

For the Rewind track, the one I had in mind was produced by MidiMarc. Think it's called The Day Things Got ILL

Rewind id dope but Nas has other tracks that are more lyricaly and conceptually amazing than this. I concur with those who already have said "I Gave You Power" and "The World Is Yours" etc.
