Jeah.. uhh.. it's what I do for a livin nigga Eat for a livin nigga (watcher) That's how I live for a livin nigga.. (watcher) Okay, let's do this (the watcher)
[Verse One: Jay-Z] Things just ain't the same for gangsters But I'm a little too famous to shoot these pranksters All of these rap singers claimin they bangers Doin all sorts of twisted shit with they fingers Disrespectin the game, no home trainin or manners I was doin this shit when you was shittin Pampers I was movin them grams 'fore you, knew what a hand that hand was Duckin the vans, radars, the scanners 'Fore you knew what hard white to tame was I was hittin the turnpike, aight with the bammers I was nice with my hands, cuss aight with them hammers I was prickin my finger 'fore you knew what a Fam was I had it laid out 'fore you knew what a plan was Three hundred mill' later, now you understand us Y'all ain't see us comin through Vegas You ever seen so much cham' bust in one night Grand fucked up one fight I was on the Peter Pan bus You was Peter Pan up in your room, y'all fuckin with whom? Allowed me to be taught You cowards is just now learnin the shit that we talk You niggaz ain't know about a Robb Report Bout a high speed Porsche, i.e. You niggaz ain't know how to floss 'til I came through the door like "Eric B. for Pres," respect me in this BITCH! You can't disrespect us cause you got a little check cut You was suckin for so long, fuckin your little neck up Now you too big for your britches, you got a few little bitches You think you Hugh Hefner, you just ridiculous I blew breath for you midgets, I gave life to the game It's only right I got the right to be king Niggaz that got life really like what I sing Cause they know is he really like, niggaz feel my pain Know the shit I DON'T write be the illest shit that's ever been recited in the game word to the hyphen in my NAME! J, A, Y, DASH, Hoffa The past present nigga the future, proper The holy trinity of hip-hop is us We give, Dre his props BUT that's where it stops It's the Roc
[Chorus: Truth Hurts] I know, you got your eyes on me I feel you watchin me But it ain't hard to see that you can't see me You try, but what you think you saw Ain't what you thought you saw You bed-da off not lookin at all (Everywhere that I go, ain't the same as befo') (People I used to know, just don't know me no mo') (But everywhere that I go, I got people I know) (Who got people they know, so I suggest you lay low)
[Verse Two: Dr. Dre] I'm still on top of the game Still droppin flames, still cock and aim Still at the top had the Roc for the fame over setbacks, there's been a lot since I came You seen it all, how I got, how I gained The momentum when it dropped, how I got through the pain When I roll and shock, they watched me reclaim the streets, they made a special spot for my name Dre, haters wanna stop to my reign But the music lives in me, every drop in my veins The pride and the pain All the way back from the rise of my name See the world clear through the eyes of the mane See the world chear for the rhymes that I gave When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane The eyes that I played The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher
[Chorus]
[Verse Three: Rakim] I'm "Rated R," my brain contains graphics thangs It turn traumatic teens into addicts, and fiends It's like, watchin a movie through a panoramic screen Which means, I can see the whole planet in the scene Cash is the topic, the object, a fatter pocket Some take the crack and chop it, but those that haven't got it take away the added profit, it's catastrophic I take the gat and cock it, and I'll sit back and watch it These New York streets is ugly, I keep it gully The world is mine and can't nobody keep it from me Yo, my neighborhood is never sunny In the place where the number one cause of death is money You can try copin I've seen enough shit to leave your frame of mind broken I'm still alive and scopin Be another hundred years 'til my skies close in And I'ma die with my eyes open, the watcher [echoes]
Your precious love, love means more to me More, more than any love can ever mean, baby You're entire truth, oh and I Oh, I wanted you, lately I was so lonely So lonely, lonely, so lonely and so blue Good God, and that That's what love will do, do
And you know something ladies And especially you ladies I'd like to speak to Because you know something ladies You got a man, I don't care what kind of man you got He wants you to get down on your knees every once in a while And kinda crawl to him And you know I got a man that's somewhere out there That I don't mind crawling to Sometimes I wake up in the midnight hour Tears rolling down my face And if I look around for my man and I can't find him Hey I follow the Lord Look a little higher, kinda pray to the Lord Because I always believe that the Lord can help ya if nobody else could But sometimes I think he don't even hear me So after falling alone on my knees, look a little higher Kinda raise my voice a little higher And this is what I say when I call on my man I especially want you ladies to listen to me Cuz maybe you can try this It might help you every once in a while This is what you say when you call on your man Give it to 'em to
Darlin', yeah darling, oh ladies Darlin' don't you know that I love you so much, hey yeah Oh, whew, fall down on my knees Beg my baby please I got to tell the man that I love him, yes I will Whew
For your precious love For your precious love There's nothing, there's nothing Nothing in this whole wide world I wouldn't do for you darling, oh I'd walk all night out in the rain Lord I got to see my baby again I gotta tell the man that I love him One more time ya'll, whew
For your precious love For your precious love There's nothing, there's nothing Nothing in this whole wide world That I wouldn't do for you darling, oh I'd walk all night out in the rain Lord I got to see my baby again I gotta tell the man that I love him Yes I do, whew
For your precious love For your precious love There's nothing, nothing Nothing in this whole wide world That I wouldn't do for you darling, oh whew Get down on my knees I gotta beg you baby please I gotta tell ya that I love ya One more time, whew
