The Prelude - Jay-Z[00:00:00]
You know you've got this[00:00:01]
Fantasy in your head about[00:00:03]
Getting outta the life and[00:00:06]
Settin' the corporate world on it's ear[00:00:08]
What the f**k you gonna do except hustle[00:00:12]
Besides pimpin'[00:00:19]
You really ain't got the stomach for that[00:00:22]
The game's f**ked up[00:00:25]
Beats is bangin' your hooks did it[00:00:26]
Your lyrics did and your gangster look did it[00:00:29]
So I would write it if y'all could get it[00:00:32]
Being intricate'll get you wood critic[00:00:35]
On the internet they like you should spit it[00:00:37]
I'm like you should buy it that's good business[00:00:40]
Hehe forget this rap shit I need a new hustle[00:00:43]
A little bit of everything the new improved russell[00:00:46]
I say that reluctantly cause I do struggle[00:00:49]
As you see I can't leave so I do love you[00:00:52]
But I'm just a hustler disguised as a rapper[00:00:55]
In fact you can't fit this hustle inside of a wrapper[00:00:58]
Back when was[00:01:01]
What these pills are I was a real star[00:01:02]
Complete with real cars no video ones[00:01:05]
You can come and set up a camera let the video run[00:01:08]
And my real life complete with real ice[00:01:11]
Vvs boulders oh they're visibly set[00:01:14]
Head and shoulders my invisible neck[00:01:17]
You see hova wasn't digital yet[00:01:20]
Befo' steve jobs made the ipod[00:01:22]
Was getting head jobs we call that intimate[00:01:25]
Back when rappers wouldn't dare play lyrical roulette[00:01:28]
With a automatic weapon I was reppin' with a tec[00:01:31]
Fresh like mannie be chain' like anti-freeze[00:01:34]
Shoebox full of cash dealer man hand me ki's[00:01:37]
Pantries full of Arm and Hammer[00:01:40]
Don't take nancy drew to see[00:01:42]
What it do I'm a damn G[00:01:44]
Just sent a million dollars through a hands free[00:01:46]
That's big money talk can you answer me[00:01:49]
Before the answer was a 3[00:01:52]
I was down in georgetown with a[00:01:54]
Hoya chick lawyer chick[00:01:55]
Sure he's rich now cause he saw the shit all this shit[00:01:57]
That's why they call him hov'[00:02:00]
Cause he came before all this shit[00:02:01]
Bought a 6 quarter seven skipped on them quarter eights[00:02:02]
Bought a 9 for non-stop glock work all the time[00:02:05]
Woo guess who's back[00:02:09]
Since this is a new era got a fresh new hat[00:02:11]
Ten year veteran I've been set[00:02:14]
I've been through with[00:02:16]
This bullshit game but I never quit[00:02:17]
I used to think rappin' at 38 was I'll[00:02:20]
When last year alone I grossed 38 mill'[00:02:22]
I know I ain't quite 38 but still[00:02:25]
The flow so special got a feel[00:02:28]
The real is back hehehehe[00:02:30]
