这世界属于你，这世界在你手中
[PR]It's mine, it's mine, it's mine
属于我，属于我，属于我
Whose world is this? 纽约著名制作人Pete Rock和Nas合作的副歌
这世界属于谁？
I sip the Dom P, watchin Gandhi til I'm charged
喝了几口香槟王，看着《甘地传》，我的心中开始充满斗志

*Pete Rock keeps cuttin and scratchin "It's yours!" to fade*
这首歌的Beats背景的钢琴音和拔的“刺刺”声和鼓点相得益彰，似乎整个氛围隐藏着一股蠢蠢欲动的野心，加上副歌不断重复的“The World Is Yours”这种野心昭然欲揭，Nas仿佛化身为“疤面煞星”中的Tony将内心中的自傲彰显无遗。桥段处加上纽约著名制作人Pete Rock的DJ scratch（搓碟声）更富于了节奏感，显出点老派的味道。而歌曲最后Nas的一通"shout to"(类似于问好）把纽约的主要地区叫了个遍，意在鼓励生活不如意的黑人兄弟们不要失去掌控世界的信心，使整首歌又显出了那么一点励志的意味。
