for those who keep sayin what happened to Jay.....he grew up! What the fuck you expect? You actually think you gon be the same person you are when you 20,when you're 40? No!You're gonna live life,have experiences,learn from them,meet new people learn from them,and through those learning experiences..you change! Not a really a bad thing..its just life! JayZ keeps it real to the person he is now! I respect that.
Sad, sad. Wasted talent and life. "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul?. For what would a man give for his soul. Life is but a vapor. We will all meet the Creator one day and everything that we have done in our bodies whether good or evil we will be held accountable. Your belief does not change the facts that God is God. God does not exist because of whether or not you believe, He exist, because He is.
@sensetalk46 im sorry homie but religion keeps ppl dumb and content in their meaningless lives while ppl who know better are making moves and controlling ur life...
@Kwrigh44 You are right. Satanism does that to people. Keeps ppl dumb and content in their life of sin. Yes their meaningless lives while people who know better are making moves to secure their eternal home in heaven. Let me ask you something- What have u done that is meaningful in life? Are u an asset to your community or a liability? After the music, after the sex, when the music stops then what's next? No need to speak about u r sorry, death and life is in the power of the tongue.
@sensetalk46 o u mean the fact that my ppl dont rape lil children, murder ppl in africa, and fly plane into buildings...wut about the crusades, genocide in africa, clashes in muslim nations...religion has caused more problems than anything in history...check ur facts...
@Kwrigh44 I just told you that satanism is a religion. Christianity is about relationship not religion. Satanism main objective is to destroy a person's belief in God. Satanism lives off confusion and hate Its main objective is to destroy a person's soul. You don't have to be a part of that. Give your life to Jesus Christ. Ask God to forgive you for your sins, and believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sin, and was raised up to life again. Allow him to be your Savior and Lord.
Like the garden, all my penpals life controlled by the warden
Still the drill makes me blind to the fact
I could do real time, Im a prisoner, of my crimes
Know the price, know the risk, know the wrongs and the rights
Now im, incarcerate for my life-jayz& u should hear and read all the lyrics to the whole song for more clues on how he is talking about selling his soul to the devil
how about u conspiracy theorist cats just stop tryin 2 spin everything the man say into devil worship. the whole damn song is referring 2 street life, the life of a hustler. if u don't like it don't listen and if u don't understand don't comment. and stop being a damn follower. u only say that cuz someone said he's a satan worshipper. u probably don't even know what any of those symbols mean. stop being lame.
What cause Im white i cant listen To rap??What i canT Know Rap Lyrics Cause Im white ??? Your a fool,Least i dont Listen to Lil wanye You little Bitch!!
"Niggas want my Old Shit Buy Old Album, niggas stuck on stupid, gotta keep on moving" - JAY Z , "On To The Next One" Blue Print 3 LOL, He's the Mike Jordan Of Rap, Biggie is smiling right now happy for Brooklyn. His flow progresses and he talks about new shit why would want to go back. Im been following Jay Z since Sega Genesis, true Jay Z fan even when Biggie was alive.
Nope. This was on the Streets is Watching soundtrack which dropped 97 but the song and vid is from 1995. This is the remix to the single In My Lifetime from 95 on Payday.
yeh i agree with you shadow, im not too much of a jay-z fan, but this song has to be one of my favorites from him.. pretty good rhyming and sick beat!
u can fight with that pain or u can forget about that and its your choice! what am i tried to tell was life is soo short and just do what u want if u can or fight for it
Haha Yeahh i Know where ur comin from Shax He did steal alot of lyrics and beats in a way. Ive been listenin to rap since 94 and i know he stole from artists like Big L and the OC. as well as old school samples from various djs lol..
But i dont know. His Run dis town is sooo epic setting aside his so called Swagger Jacker lol. I dont bother to listen to his mix tapes tho lol
damn dat girl in video singin the chorus is fuckin beutifull!

I dont care what you think but in my opinion. Jay z is a whack ass rapper. he may be making money but his raps aint dope.
All he does is steal another guys style/words and makes it in his own twist. that isnt skill thats lack of rhyme skills.
But sadly enough this is the only song i like from jay z i gotta give him that.
Once he lost his fine ass girl his career went with it.
