[Jay-Z]
The nerve with you herbs
Y'all know it's work from the curb
With the Lex - the best - observe:
f** what you heard: splashing, splurging
Dashing, that's my word, you know?
Champagne gla**es crashing, can't ration
Used to having a whole lot, so dough, I blow a lot
Had a buck fifty while you was still
Taking Skippy to school
Ran with one of them n***as that heists Tiffany's
For them j**els. Back when Duke was jumping
Out of Cap'n Crunch food, I was scheming the plot
Mostly dreaming a lot but look what it got me
4 cars and 400,000 shocks later, f**ed up in gators
You scared to look, n***as is shook
f** it, you're vibrators
Bullets rank off the hook when n***as try to violate us
FBI spies hate us, all they gotta check is my
Latest cut then follow my moves: I'm the greatest
f** how haters been paying dues
I cheated, committed felonies when needed
While you n***as starve, f** what you're making
If you was hustling like you said
We would've bumped paths, so I know you n***as is faking
Word up - '95 and forever yo
