Jeah uhh what shall I do for a livin ni**a[00:00:03]
What shall i Eat for a livin ni**a *watcher* [00:00:10]
That's how I live for a livin ni**a *watcher* [00:00:13]
Okay let's do this *the watcher* [00:00:18]
Things just ain't the same for gangsters[00:00:22]
But I'm a little too famous to shoot these pranksters[00:00:23]
All of these rap singers claimin they bangers[00:00:26]
Doin all sorts of twisted sh*t with they fingers[00:00:28]
Disrespectin the game no home trainin or manners[00:00:30]
I was doin this sh*t when you was shittin Pampers[00:00:32]
I was movin them grams 'fore you knew what a hand that hand was[00:00:35]
Duckin the vans radars the scanners[00:00:38]
'Fore you knew what hard white to tame was[00:00:40]
I was hittin the turnpike aight with the bammers[00:00:42]
I was nice with my hands 'cause aight with them hammers[00:00:45]
I was prickin my finger 'fore you knew what a Fam was[00:00:47]
I had it laid out 'fore you knew what a plan was[00:00:50]
Three hundred mill' later now you understand us[00:00:53]
Y'all ain't see us comin through Vegas[00:00:55]
You ever seen so much cham' bust in one night[00:00:56]
Grand f**ked up one fight[00:00:59]
I was on the Peter Pan bus[00:01:00]
You was Peter Pan up in your room y'all f**kin with whom [00:01:01]
Allow me to retort[00:01:04]
You cowards is just now learnin the sh*t that we taught[00:01:06]
You niggaz ain't know about a Robb Report[00:01:09]
Bout a high speed Porsche [00:01:11]
I e you niggaz ain't know how to floss[00:01:13]
'Til I came through the door[00:01:15]
Like "Eric B for Pres " respect me in this B**CH [00:01:17]
You can't disrespect us cause you got a little check cut[00:01:19]
You was suckin so long f**kin ya little neck up[00:01:21]
Now you too big for your britches you got a few little b**ches[00:01:23]
You think you Hugh Hefner you just ridiculous[00:01:27]
I blew breath on you midgets I gave light to the game[00:01:29]
It's only right I got the right to be king[00:01:31]
Niggaz that got life really like what I sing[00:01:33]
Cause they know is he really like niggaz feel my pain[00:01:35]
Know the sh*t I DON'T write[00:01:38]
Be the illest sh*t that's ever been recited[00:01:39]
In the game word to the hyphen in my NAME [00:01:41]
J A Y DASH Hoffa[00:01:43]
The past present ni**a the future proper[00:01:45]
The holy trinity of hip-hop is us[00:01:48]
We give Dre his props BUT that's where it stops[00:01:50]
It's the Roc[00:01:52]
I know you got your eyes on me[00:01:54]
I feel you watchin me[00:01:57]
But it ain't hard to see that you can't see me[00:01:59]
You try but what you think you saw[00:02:03]
Ain't what you thought you saw[00:02:06]
You bed-da off not lookin at all[00:02:08]
(Everywhere that I go ain't the same as befo')[00:02:12]
(People I used to know just don't know me no mo')[00:02:16]
(But everywhere that I go I got people I know)[00:02:21]
(Who got people they know so I suggest you lay low)[00:02:26]
I'm still on top of the game[00:02:32]
Still droppin flames still cock and aim[00:02:34]
Still at the top had the Roc for the fame[00:02:36]
Over setbacks there's been a lot since I came[00:02:38]
You seen it all how I got how I gained[00:02:41]
The momentum when it dropped how I got through the pain[00:02:43]
When I roll and shock they watched me reclaim[00:02:46]
The streets they made a special spot for my name[00:02:48]
Dre haters wanna stop to my reign[00:02:51]
But the music lives in me every drop in my veins[00:02:53]
The pride and the pain[00:02:55]
All the way back from the rise of my name[00:02:57]
See the world clear through the eyes of the mane[00:02:59]
See the world chear for the rhymes that I gave[00:03:02]
When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane[00:03:04]
The eyes that I played[00:03:06]
The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher[00:03:08]
[Chorus[00:03:10]
I'm "Rated R " my brain contains graphics thangs[00:03:49]
It turn traumatic teens into addicts and fiends[00:03:51]
It's like watchin a movie through a panoramic screen[00:03:53]
Which means I can see the whole planet in the scene[00:03:56]
Cash is the topic the object a fatter pocket[00:03:58]
Some take the crack and chop it but those that haven't got it[00:04:01]
Take away the added profit it's catastrophic[00:04:04]
I take the gat and cock it and I'll sit back and watch it[00:04:05]
These New York streets is ugly I keep it gully[00:04:08]
The world is mine and can't nobody keep it from me[00:04:11]
Yo my neighborhood is never sunny[00:04:13]
In the place where the number one cause of death is money[00:04:15]
You can try copin[00:04:18]
I've seen enough sh*t to leave your frame of mind broken[00:04:19]
I'm still alive and scopin[00:04:22]
Be another hundred years 'til my skies close in[00:04:23]
And I'ma die with my eyes open the watcher *echoes* [00:04:25]
[Chorus[00:04:30]
