[Jay-Z]
Motherfuckers -
say that I'm foolish I only talk
about jewels (bling bling)
Do you fools listen to music or
do you just skim through it?
See I'm influenced by the ghetto
you ruined
That same dude you gave nothin,
I made somethin doin
what I do through and through and
I give you the news - with a twist
it's just his ghetto point-of-view
The renegade; you been afraid
I penetrate pop culture, bring
'em a lot closer to the block where
they
pop toasters, and they live with
they moms
Got dropped roasters, from botched
robberies niggaz crotched over
Mommy's knocked up cause she wasn't
watched over
Knocked down by some clown when
child support knocked
No he's not around - now how that
sound to ya, jot it down
I bring it through the ghetto without
ridin 'round
hidin down duckin strays from frustrated
youths stuck in they ways
Just read a magazine that fucked
up my day
How you rate music that thugs with
nothin relate to it?
I help them see they way through
it - not you
Can't step in my pants, can't walk
in my shoes
Bet everything you worth; you lose
your tie and your shirt
[Eminem]
Since I'm in a position to talk
to these kids and they listen
I ain't no politician but I'll
kick it with 'em a minute
Cause see they call me a menace;
and if the shoe fits I'll wear
it
But if it don't, then y'all'll
swallow the truth grin and bear
it
Now who's these king of these rude
ludicrous lucrative lyrics
Who could inherit the title, put
the youth in hysterics
Usin his music to steer it, sharin
his views and his merits
But there's a huge interference
- they're sayin you shouldn't hear
it
Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe
it's food for the spirit
Maybe it's beautiful music I made
for you to just cherish
But I'm debated disputed hated
and viewed in America
as a motherfuckin drug addict -
like you didn't experiment?
Now now, that's when you start
to stare at who's in the mirror
and see yourself as a kid again,
and you get embarrased
And I got nothin to do but make
you look stupid as parents
You fuckin do-gooders - too bad
you couldn't do good at marriage!
(Ha ha!) And do you have any clue
what I had to do to get here I
don't
think you do so stay tuned and
keep your ears glued to the stereo
Cause here we go - he's {*Jigga
joint Jigga-chk-Jigga*}
And I'm the sinister, Mr. Kiss-My-Ass
it's just the
[Chorus: Eminem + Jay-Z]
[Em] RENEGADE! Never been afraid
to say
what's on my mind at, any given
time of day
Cause I'm a RENEGADE! Never been
afraid to talk
about anything (ANYTHING) anything
(ANYTHING), RENEGADE!
[Jay] Never been afraid to say
what's on my mind at, any given
time of day
Cause I'm a {RENEGADE} Never been
afraid to holler
about anything {anything?} Anything
{ANYTHING!}
[Jay-Z]
I had to hustle, my back to the
wall, ashy knuckles
Pockets filled with a lot of lint,
not a cent
Gotta vent, lot of innocent of
lives lost on the project bench
Whatchu hollerin? Gotta pay rent,
bring dollars in
By the bodega, iron under my coat,
feelin braver
Doo-rag wrappin my waves up, pockets
full of hope
Do not step to me - I'm awkward,
I box leftier often
My pops left me an orphan, my momma
wasn't home
Could not stress to me I wasn't
grown; 'specially on nights
I brought somethin home to quiet
the stomach rumblings
My demeanor - thirty years my senior
My childhood didn't mean much,
only raisin green up
Raisin my fingers to critics; raisin
my head to the sky
Big I did it - multi before I die
(nigga)
No lie, just know I chose my own
fate
I drove by the fork in the road
and went straight
[Eminem]
See I'm a poet to some, a regular
modern day Shakespeare
Jesus Christ the King of these
Latter Day Saints here
To shatter the picture in which
of that as they paint me
as a monger of hate and Satan a
scatter-brained atheist
But that ain't the case, see it's
a matter of taste
We as a people decide if Shady's
as bad as they say he is
Or is he the latter - a gateway
to escape?
Media scapegoat, who they can be
mad at today
See it's easy as cake, simple as
whistlin Dixie
while I'm wavin the pistol at sixty
Christians against me
Go to war with the Mormons, take
a bath with the Catholics
in holy water - no wonder they
try to hold me under longer
I'm a motherfuckin spiteful, DELIGHTFUL
eyeful
The new Ice Cube - motherfuckers
HATE to like you
What did I do? (huh?) I'm just
a kid from the gutter
makin this butter off these bloodsuckers,
cause I'm a muh'fuckin
[Chorus] - repeat 2X |
