[Outro]
Ayo, son, ayo, son, you hear me? You hear me?
Listen, man
This dude right on the block right now, man
I found him, right now, I see him right now
Let's kill him
Yo, this Nas, leave it, peace

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETERâ„¢
This segment functions as a narrative transition (the outro of 'Rewind') rather than a lyrical performance, serving to bookend the reverse-chronological narrative of the song.

Rhyme Architecture: Non-rhyming conversational prose; lacks a traditional rhyme scheme as it functions as a cinematic bridge.
Strong narrative grounding
Effective atmospheric immersion for the album's concept
Naturalistic cadence
Zero lyrical complexity
Lack of internal or end rhymes
Functionally utilitarian rather than poetic
