Nas displays clear connections to astrology, Egypt, God and Nastradamus. The Cover of Street’s Disciple shows a Last Supper style dinner where Nas is seated in place of Jesus. A cake on the table has the astrological sign of Virgo.
The lyrics to the song Virgo from Street’s Disciples contain nothing peculiar. The song “Where Ya’ll At” contains an interesting phrase refering to the back of the U.S. Dollar Bill:
Whether chrome sparking or loan sharking
Busting rachets or numbers rackets or drug traffic
My funds are wrapped up, no concerns who has what
Financer, skull doo wrapped up
Mob life, prizefights, plasma tvs or first floor
Diversified all my circle
Amid the most sickest groom the proof swiftness
Numero uno, annuit coeptis
That’s the language of our Latin ancestors
On the back of a dollar, the plan and the message
In the Rolls Royce like the King of Nigeria
My criteria, smoke cigars
Change rap like Jimi Hendrix changed Rock And Roll
With a broke guitar, diamonds flashing
Almost put a million cash in, in my mommy casket
Seen more green than St. Patrick-trick
The song “High” contains the phrase “Silent weapons for quiet wars” which was mentioned in Bill Cooper’s book Behold a Pale Horse:
I elevated up, since my snakes in my circumference
Now I hit my niggas with cakes and say, “Pump This”
Thank god for cracks, corners, and marijuana
Hoodrats and good gats to carry on ya
I got dead friends, misled friends, crackhead friends
Wild Gremlins, who “bust led” friends
Silent weapons for quiet wars
Allow gats,
Tussle too long, some shiny moves the crowd back
It’s powerful, niggas would die over respect
And money is secondary to that whole aspect
