Meet The Parents - Jay-Z[00:00:00]

Woo Uhh uhh[00:00:02]

It's "The Gift & the Curse"[00:00:05]

Uhh uhh yea[00:00:08]

First they love me then they hate me[00:00:11]

Then they love me again[00:00:12]

they love me again[00:00:15]

Let's take a trip down I gotcha[00:00:17]

Let's take a trip down memory[00:00:22]

Lane at the cemetery[00:00:24]

Rain grey skies seems at the end of every[00:00:26]

Young black life is this line "Damn - him already[00:00:29]

Such a good kid " got us pouring Henn' already[00:00:32]

Liquor to the curb for my niggas up above[00:00:34]

When it cracks through the pavement[00:00:37]

That's my way of sendin love[00:00:38]

So give Big a hug tell Aa-liyah I said hi[00:00:39]

'Til the next time I see her on the other side[00:00:43]

He was just some thug that caught some slugs[00:00:45]

And we loved him cause in him we saw some of us[00:00:48]

He walked like us talked like us[00:00:51]

His back against the wall[00:00:54]

Nigga fought like us - damn[00:00:55]

Poor Isis that's his momma name[00:00:58]

Momma ain't strong enough to raise[00:00:59]

No boy what's his father name[00:01:01]

Shorty never knew him[00:01:03]

Though he had his blood in him[00:01:04]

Hot temper momma said he act[00:01:06]

Just like her husband[00:01:08]

Daddy never f**ked with him[00:01:09]

So the streets raised him[00:01:10]

Isis blaming herself[00:01:12]

She wish she could've saved him[00:01:12]

Damn near impossible only men can raise men[00:01:14]

He was his own man[00:01:17]

Not even him can save him[00:01:18]

He put his faith in a[00:01:20]

Thirty-eight in his waist[00:01:21]

But when you live by[00:01:22]

The gun you die by the same fate[00:01:24]

End up dead before thirty-eight and umm[00:01:25]

That's the life of us raised[00:01:28]

By winter it's a cold world[00:01:30]

Old girl turned to coke[00:01:32]

Tried to smoke her pain away[00:01:33]

Isis life just ended on that rainy day[00:01:35]

When she got the news her boy[00:01:37]

Body could be viewed[00:01:39]

Down at the City Morgue[00:01:40]

Opened the drawer saw him nude[00:01:41]

Her addiction grew prescription drugs shift and brew[00:01:43]

Angel dust dipped in WOO [00:01:47]

She slipped into her own fantasy world[00:01:49]

Had herself pregnant by a different dude[00:01:52]

But reality bites and this is her life[00:01:54]

He wasn't really her husband[00:01:57]

Though he called her wife[00:01:59]

It was just this night when moon was full[00:02:00]

And the stars were just right[00:02:03]

And the dress was real tight[00:02:05]

Had her sounding like Lisa Lisa[00:02:06]

I wonder if I take you home[00:02:08]

Will you still love me after this night[00:02:09]

Mike was the hardhead from the around the way[00:02:12]

That she wanted all her life[00:02:14]

Shit she wanted all the hype[00:02:16]

Used to hold on tight[00:02:18]

When he wheelied on the bike[00:02:19]

He was a Willie all her life[00:02:20]

He wasn't really the one to like[00:02:22]

It was a dude named Shy who[00:02:23]

Would really treat her right[00:02:25]

He wanted to run to the country[00:02:26]

To escape the city life[00:02:27]

But I-sis like this Broadway life[00:02:29]

She loved the Gucci sneakers[00:02:31]

The red green and whites[00:02:33]

Hangin out the window when[00:02:35]

She first seen him fight[00:02:36]

She was so turned on that[00:02:37]

She had to shower twice[00:02:39]

How ironic it would be some fight that[00:02:40]

Turned into a homicide[00:02:43]

That'll alter their life[00:02:45]

See Mike at thirty-two was[00:02:46]

Still on the scene[00:02:47]

Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice[00:02:49]

Sure he saw him as an infant[00:02:52]

But he dissed on him like[00:02:53]

"If that was my son he would look much different[00:02:55]

See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark[00:02:58]

So it's momma's baby; poppa's maybe[00:03:00]

Mike was still crazy out there running[00:03:03]

The streets (f**k niggas want )[00:03:05]

Had his old reliable[00:03:06]

With thirty-eight gun in his reach[00:03:07]

It's been fourteen years[00:03:09]

Him and Isis ain't speak[00:03:10]

He running around like life's a peach 'til one day[00:03:12]

He approached this thug that had a mean mug[00:03:15]

And it looked so familiar[00:03:18]

That he called him "Young Cuz"[00:03:19]

Told him get off the strip[00:03:20]

But the boy ain't budge (f**k you)[00:03:22]

Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub[00:03:23]

He clearly had the drop[00:03:26]

But the boy just paused (hold up)[00:03:28]

There was somethin in this man's[00:03:29]

Face he knew he seen before[00:03:30]

It's like lookin in the mirror[00:03:32]

Seeing hisself more mature[00:03:33]

And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord[00:03:35]

You know what they say about he[00:03:38]

Who hesitates in war[00:03:39]

(What's that ) He who hesitates is lost[00:03:41]

He can't explain what he saw before[00:03:43]

His picture went blank[00:03:45]

The old man didn't think he[00:03:46]

Just followed his instinct[00:03:47]

Six shots into his kid out of the gun[00:03:49]

Niggas be a father you're Killing your son[00:03:52]

Six shots into his kid out of the gun[00:03:55]

Niggas be a father you Killing your sons[00:03:58]
