[Jay-Z]
Who ever thought young Shawn Carter would change the game?
Used to rap to the raindrops off my window pane
Duckin the plain cops, pushin indo and ´caine
At the kitchen table late night, no pen, just my brain
First album niggaz love me cause they thought I was poor
Guess I´m successful; industry don´t love me no more
Well I´m the same nigga from your corner, bubblin raw
Skully tilted, pants saggin, damn near touchin the floor
And I come with do-rags to your so-called awards
T-shirt with my chain out like fuck y´all all
Retrospect ain´t been the same since I lost my dad
He´s still alive, but still fuck you, don´t cross my path
A&R´s had me feelin like moss in the drab
So I turned the league out with "Reasonable Doubt"
Get your CD´s out, let´s go, song for song
I´m the illest nigga doin it til y´all prove me wrong
Do you believe?
It´s Hova the God, uhh, uhh, uhh..
