This is a public service announcement
2
Sponsored by Just Blaze and the good folks at Roc-A-Fella Records
3
"Fellow Americans, it is with the utmost pride and sincerity
4
That I present this recording, as a living testament and recollection
5
Of history in the making during our generation."
6
Allow me to re-introduce myself
7
My name is Hov', OH, H-to-the-O-V
8
I used to move snowflakes by the O-Z
9
I guess even back then you can call me
10
CEO of the R-O-C, Hov'!
11
Fresh out the frying pan into the fire
12
I be the, music biz number one supplier
13
Flier than a piece of paper bearing my name
14
Got the hottest chick in the game wearing my chain, that's right
15
Hov', Oh, not D.O.C.
16
But similar to them letters, "No One Can Do it Better"
17
I check cheddar like a food inspector
18
My homey Strict told me, "Dude finish your breakfast"
19
So that's what I'ma do, take you back to the dude
20
With the Lexus, fast-forward the jewels and the necklace
21
Let me tell you dudes what I do to protect this
22
I shoot at you actors like movie directors
23
This ain't a movie dog (oh shit)
24
"Now before I finish, let me just say
25
I did not come here to show out, did not come here to impress you
26
Because to tell you the truth when I leave here I'm gone!
27
And I don't care what you think about me, but just remember,
28
When it hits the fan brother, whether it's next year, ten years,
29
Twenty years from now, you're gonna be able to say
30
That these brothers lied to you Jack!"
31
Ving ain't lie
32
I done came through the block in everything that's fly
33
I'm like, Che Guevara with bling on, I'm complex
34
I never claimed to have wings on
35
Nigga I get mine, by any means on whenever there's a drought
36
Get your umbrellas out because, that's when I brainstorm
37
You can blame Shawn, but I ain't invent the game
38
I just rolled the dice, trying to get some change
39
And I do it twice, ain't no sense in me
40
Lying as if, I am a different man
41
And I could blame my environment but
42
There ain't no reason why I be buying expensive chains
43
Hope you don't think youse as hardy
44
Only a fews-us niggas, getting high within the game
45
If you do then, how would you explain?
46
I'm ten years removed, still the vibe is in my veins
47
I got a hustler spirit, nigga period
48
Check out my hat yo, peep the way I wear it
49
Check out my swag' yo, I walk like a ballplayer
50
No matter where you go, you are what you are player
51
And you can try to change but that's just as hot player
52
Man, you was who you was 'fore you got here
53
Only God can judge me, so I'm gone
54
Either love me, or leave me alone
55
(Now, back to our regular scheduled program)
