All Black
Jay-Z & Kanye West Lyrics

You don't know shit, how is you the one to judge? (to judge)
You lack knowledge and understanding, so how can you claim authority to pass judgment on others?

You talkin' some shit (oh), but you don't tell me what's up (what's up)
You're speaking nonsense, but you fail to provide any meaningful information or insight.

How do you live (live) knowing that are a bluff? (a bluff)
How can you carry on with your life, aware that you are living a lie?

All black with my fit (fit), in the city we turnt up (turnt up)
Dressed in all black, we are fully energized and lively in the city

Turnt up, up on the weekday (weekday)
We are highly active and enthusiastic even on regular weekdays

2 man, 4 man on the weekday (weekday)
Whether it's just two or four of us, we are still highly engaged on weekdays

Run through the city like this is a relay (relay)
We move swiftly and seamlessly through the city, as if participating in a relay race

Don't show up if you're gonna be late (be late)
If you know you will arrive late, it's best not to come at all

I got bitches that cover the whole state (whole state)
I have a network of women that extends throughout the entire state

My roster could go on all state (all state)
My team is so talented and skilled that they could represent the whole state

So don't show up if you're gonna be late (be late)
It's better to not attend if you cannot arrive on time

You was with a fraud, how is you gon' be my love? (oh)
You were involved with a deceitful person, so how can you expect to be my lover?

That nigga was a bluff (oh), that's why he would sing my stuff (oh)
That person was a fake, which is why he imitated my style

That nigga always duck (uhh), but it is time to hunt tonight (hunt tonight)
That person always avoided confrontation, but tonight is the night to seek revenge

So much love was lost (oh), when I entered his bitch sight (her sight)
When I became involved with his woman, a significant amount of love was destroyed

We gon' have a field day (ooh)
We are going to enjoy overwhelming success and have a great time

Let me tell you the play-by-play (by play)
Allow me to explain the details and sequence of events

It's 1st down, I run to his crib (ooh)
It's the beginning of the confrontation, and I swiftly head to his residence

Yeah, we on O, still do a blitz (a blitz)
We are on the offensive, making an unexpected and aggressive move

ESPN can't show this (show this)
Even ESPN cannot broadcast or display what we are about to do

'Cause we about to be on lists (on lists)
Because our actions will soon be recognized and celebrated

'Cause Drew, he pullin' out the stick (oh)
Because Drew is wielding a firearm

And he's gon' hit top bins with this (top bins)
And he will aim and shoot with such accuracy that he will score at the highest point of the goal

Oh, (oh), he's a fraud, he's a fake (he's a fake)
Oh, he's deceitful and dishonest

He wanted beef (beef), well the nigga got baked (got baked)
He desired conflict, but he ended up being defeated and humiliated

And we don't play no games (no games)
We don't engage in trivial or meaningless activities

He shoulda stayed in his own lane (own lane)
He should have stuck to what he knew and avoided confrontation

Load up on my side, bitch, they say I'm a fraud
Prepare weapons on my side, they claim I am dishonest

And when I catch him, leave him prayin' to God
And when I confront him, he will be desperately seeking divine intervention

And you know I love scammin', they know I go ham, and when I get to flexin' she say I'm a snob
And you are aware that I enjoy deceiving others, they know I excel, and when I show off my success, she accuses me of being snobbish

I'ma slide on your block, you'd think we the mob
I will move smoothly and swiftly through your neighborhood, giving the impression that we are a powerful organized crime group

Ain't no racial gang, IGD, it's a squad
There is no racial or ethnic affiliation in our group, it's the IGD squad

And they say I'm the one like the back of Chris Bosh
And people claim that I am the chosen one, likening me to the legendary basketball player Chris Bosh

And I'm out all day with the Ben on the fox
And I spend the entire day carrying an illegal firearm

On the Fox all day, bitch, I'm busy
Continuously on the lookout, I'm a busy person on the streets

Big Drippy spin crazy, you would think that he dizzy
Big Drippy moves in a reckless and chaotic manner, giving the impression that he is dizzy

Beef-beefin' with me, it's a gimme
Engaging in conflict with me is a guaranteed victory for me

I get his location, tell bro to come with me
Once I locate the person, I inform my friend to accompany me

I'm foldin' these niggas just like my name Jimmy
I am defeating and overpowering these individuals easily, just like folding a piece of paper

I was big 14 fully out with a semi
I was only 14 years old but fully armed with a semi-automatic firearm

Its purp' in my cup, my bro drinkin' on henny
There is purple drank in my cup, while my friend drinks Hennessy

And im wit' your religion, you know I be sinning
And I am associated with your belief system, but you are aware that I engage in sinful behavior

H-how can I trust you, I think you a fony?
How can I place my trust in you when I believe you are a fake?

Fuck Opium, I ain't talkin' 'bout Lonely
Disregard the drug Opium, I am not referring to feeling lonely

Fuck all that shit 'cause that shit took my brodie
Disregard all those things because they caused the death of my close friend

Think you know me, but you don't really know me
You believe you have a deep understanding of who I am, but in reality, you have a superficial knowledge

Just know that you fam if I call you "homie"
Understand that if I refer to you as "homie," it means we have a close and familiar relationship

I be walkin' 'round town with a target on me
I move around the city with a clear objective or goal being directed towards me

But be walkin' 'round town with a fire on 'em
However, I also carry a gun and am ready to use it

Where's my jersey I wear when I retire on me?
Where is the jersey I wear when I achieve a great accomplishment and retire?
