Already Home
Jay-Z Feat. J. Cole Lyrics

You either love me or leave me alone
People either love Jay-Z or they should just leave him alone

Oh they want me to fall (fall)
There are people who want Jay-Z to fail

Fall from the top (top)
Those people want Jay-Z to fall from the top of the music industry

They want me to drop (drop)
Those people want Jay-Z to drop in popularity and success

They want me to stop (stop)
Those people want Jay-Z to stop making music

They want me to go (go)
Those people want Jay-Z to leave the music industry

I'm already gone (already)
But Jay-Z knows that he has already moved on from those people

The s*** that I'm on
Jay-Z is comfortable with the lifestyle he's built for himself

I'm already home
Jay-Z feels at home in the music industry, despite the haters

They want me to stop (no)
Again, those people want Jay-Z to stop making music

They want me to go (no)
Those people want Jay-Z to leave the music industry

I'm already gone (gone)
Jay-Z has already moved on from those people

The s*** that I'm on (already)
Again, Jay-Z is happy with the success he's built for himself

These n****'s want me to go, don't they know that I'm gone
People want Jay-Z to leave the music industry, but he's already moved on from them

They know I'm space shuttle level they need oxyg-g-g-gen
These people know that Jay-Z is on another level of success, they can't compete

Don't they know that they borin'?
Jay-Z is bored with the people who want him to fail, they aren't worth his time

Don't they know that I yawn
Again, Jay-Z is uninterested in people who want him to fail

Only time they excitin' is when they mentioning Shawn
The only time these people are interesting is when they're talking about Jay-Z

You see single white female when she dyed her hair blonde
Jay-Z sees these people as trying too hard to imitate him

Sometimes I look at these rappers, the movie remind me of them
Jay-Z sees the rap industry as a movie, and some rappers as mere extras

Somebody turn these boys off
Jay-Z is tired of listening to these uninteresting rappers

Don't they know that I'm on
Again, Jay-Z is happy with his level of success

Can't they see that it's foolish to try and kill me with songs
Jay-Z isn't afraid of other rappers trying to diss him in their music

What the f*** are they Lauryn, you killin' me softly
Jay-Z is unimpressed with other rappers' attempts to 'kill' him with their music

You talk me to death, only thing you can do to him
These rappers can only talk about Jay-Z, they can't hurt him

I open the door for them, what else can I do?
Jay-Z has already given these rappers a chance to succeed

These n****'s want me to walk for them, somebody talk to them
These rappers want Jay-Z to help them out even more, but he's not interested

Before I go off on them
Jay-Z is warning these rappers that he may get angry at them soon

I taught 'em about fish scale they want me to fish for them
Jay-Z has already shared his knowledge of the music industry with these rappers

They want me to catch clean, then cook up a dish for them
Now, these rappers want Jay-Z to do the work for them

All of this just for them, or they got a diss for him
These rappers either want Jay-Z's help with their music careers, or they want to diss him

They want me to disappear, like it's gonna shift for them
These rappers believe that if Jay-Z leaves the music industry, it will improve their own chances of success

They say that I'm in the way, they want me to sit with them
These rappers think Jay-Z is preventing them from achieving success

But what they admitting is, they ain't got s*** for him
These rappers are admitting that they don't have the same level of talent as Jay-Z

But really the fact is, we not in the same bracket
Jay-Z and these rappers aren't on the same level of success

Not in the same league, don't shoot at the same baskets
Jay-Z and these rappers are playing different games in the music industry

Don't pay the same taxes, hang with the same b****es
Jay-Z and these rappers have different lifestyles

So how am I in the way, what is it I'm missing?
Jay-Z doesn't understand why these rappers think he's preventing them from succeeding

N**** I been missing, n**** I been gone
Jay-Z has already moved on, and he doesn't care about these rappers trying to bring him down

The s*** that you just witnessed is in, I bin on
Jay-Z has already achieved success, and he isn't going to stop

And as for the critics, tell me I don't get it
Jay-Z is tired of music critics trying to bring him down

Everybody can tell you how to do it, they never did it
Jay-Z knows that critics and other rappers are just trying to tell him what to do, even though they haven't achieved his level of success

Now these n****'s is mad, oh they call me a Camel
These rappers are angry at Jay-Z and have started to call him names

But I mastered the drought, what the f*** I'm an animal
Jay-Z knows that he's a survivor and he's not afraid of anyone trying to bring him down

Half-man half-mammal
Jay-Z is referring to himself as an unstoppable animal

My sign is a Sag, this is just what I plan to do
Jay-Z is a Sagittarius, and he plans to keep dominating the music industry

Hoe don't be mad
Jay-Z is dismissing anyone who is jealous of his success

I'm in the hall already, on the wall already
Jay-Z is already a legend in the music industry

I'm a work of art, I'm a Warhol already
Jay-Z sees himself as an iconic figure in the music industry, like artist Andy Warhol

On another level, on another plane already
Jay-Z has already achieved success beyond what most rappers can imagine

H-O-V I got my own lane already (already)
Jay-Z has already carved out his own unique lane in the music industry

I done cooked up the rock already
Jay-Z has already created some of the most iconic songs in music history

So why the f*** can't y'all get hot already (already)
Jay-Z is wondering why other rappers can't achieve the same level of success as him

Put your name in the pot already, n****s compare me to Biggie and Pac already
Jay-Z is telling other rappers to put in the work if they want to be compared to legendary rappers like Biggie and Tupac

Like I'm gone already and I am n**** I'm already home already
Jay-Z has already achieved the success that other rappers are still hoping to attain

If y'all can't already see I ain't worried about y'all cause I'm already me (already)
Jay-Z knows that he's already achieved his own unique success, and he's not worried about what other rappers think of him

Do you already, enough of the complaining bo-who's already
Jay-Z is telling other rappers to focus on their own music careers and stop complaining about him

Eat food already, ain't nothing given you gotta claim your shoes already,
Jay-Z is telling other rappers to work hard for their success, it's not going to be handed to them

Yeah so on this summation I don't know who you racing
Jay-Z doesn't know who other rappers think they're competing against

I'm already at the finish line with the flag waving
Jay-Z has already finished his race and achieved his own success
