[Intro: Jay-Z]
Turn the music up, uh uh uh, turn the music up
Old school, new school, need to know this
I burn like Left Eye Lisa Lopes
Burn slow like blunts of hydro
Jigga Man, BK sh**, y'all know
Jigga Man, ya heard? The fugitive
Allow me to vent on this Clue sh**
Allow me to say thanks to all the people for all their support, and your prayers
And all the people that pre-judge me: f** you, s** my dick...
[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
D.A. act like a n***a starvin' for Jay
If they lock me in a cage, f** it, party away
I'm still hot, I'm still S-dot ya'll
Still got millions buried in the sock drawer
Still holdin' my own on the corner n***a
What don't k** me can only make me stronger n***a
And when I get back home
Get your a** up out the throne
It's just goin' back to the way sh** was
I'mma stay hot no matter what my sh** does
I could drop a straight dud, I'mma stay up
n***as tryin' break my will
You know that ain't my steel
I'm Destiny's Child, my fate's been sealed
You're dealin' with a higher power
I'm like Dwight Eisenhower
My life can move a thousand miles and hour
Reflect me folks
As my world turns like the wheels on a bicycle spoke
It's much deeper than a soap, it's a constant drama series
All they see is money, they want me to blind the jury
All this bullsh** can make the mind weary
But my theory is the sun shines clearly
(The Sun will shine clearly!)
[Verse 2: Jay-Z]
Now everybody wanna rhyme like Hov
Cause I rhyme like I be rhymin' in the Rov'
Climbin' in them hoes
My minds like the diamonds, I'll blind you at them shows
I don't shine, I glow
I remind you of that dough
Don't I? Murder n***as won't I?
My persona, hustler turned rapper, smell the crack aroma
Send shots like toma! in any language
Leave n***as in a coma when I'm bangin' that Fifth
Get chicks lit off Coronas and bamboo spliffs
And get the camcorder to camcord their hand movements
And for what? Ya'll actin' like ya'll better than Hov
Ya'll n***as should open up for the Letterman show
n***as is funny
All I do is get money and ya'll n***as sound funny to me
Everybody's rappin' like they better than Hov
But that sh**'s real funny to me
I'm at the forefront of this rap sh**, truth is truth
Look around at all the platinum, proof is proof
Listen to how n***as is rappin', thats due to who?
But I'mma let n***as live cause it's beautiful
Live n***as...
Jigga Man ya heard? Clue... Duro...
