Jay-Z Kid Capri Lyrics

Yeah, uh-huh, watch this y'all
Pay attention, something impressive is about to happen

Uhh, watch this y'all
Again, pay attention because something big is happening

C'mon, Jigga, watch this y'all
Jay-Z, watch this impressive performance that's about to happen

C'mon, Roc-A-Fella y'all..
Roc-A-Fella crew, be prepared for this show-stopping performance

It's Kid Capri and Jay-Z, it's Jay-Z and Kid Capri
This is a collaboration between Kid Capri and Jay-Z

Cause I'm like that yo! I'm really like that
I am extremely skilled and talented

As a young'un dumbin, gun in the waist
When I was young I carried a gun and acted foolishly

Sold crack to those who couldn't take the pain
I sold drugs to people who were struggling and looking for an escape from their pain

And had to numb it with base
These people were so desperate that they had to use drugs to escape their pain

Couldn't drink the Henny straight, I needed somethin to chase
I couldn't handle my liquor straight and needed a mixer to dilute it

Nowadays I throw shots back, leavin nuttin to waste
I now drink my liquor straight and don't waste any of it

Life's like a treadmill, niggas runnin in place
Life can feel like we're running but not getting anywhere, stuck in one spot

Gettin nowhere fast, a whole year done past
Time flies by quickly and it feels like we haven't accomplished anything

I vowed to never stop winnin, 'til the earth stop spinnin
I promised myself that I will always strive for success, even until the end of the world

Rock hot linen, cop hot cars and hot women
I want the best of everything, from clothes to cars to women

If it's not him then you got it confused, y'all not rememberin
If you're not talking about me, then you're mistaken and not remembering correctly

My motto is simply I will not lose
I refuse to lose, it's my mantra for success

Abide by the block rules, I buy my glocks used
I follow the rules of the streets and buy guns second-hand

wit bodies on it, let me know anybody want it?
I have guns that have been used in homicides, do you want one?

I'm raised, illrational, way misunderstood
I grew up in rough circumstances and people don't understand my actions

If you ain't live like I live, been one with the hood
If you haven't experienced what I have growing up in the hood, you can't understand me

I done what I could, to come up with this paper 'til this day still
I did everything I could to make money and I continue to do so to this day

Run with the hood, guess it's part of my nature
I identify with and feel comfortable with the people from my neighborhood

If hell awaits a, nigga I'm comin with the razors
If I go to hell, I'll still be armed and dangerous with razors

Still flashin ya shit, try to pass me in a six
I'll show off my wealth by driving past you in my luxury car

Type classy on the wrists, every bit of 30 karats
My watches are expensive and have 30 karats of diamonds on them

This is, not a game this is not why I came
I'm not playing around, I'm here for serious business

May these words find a spot on your brain and burn
I hope my words make an impact on you and stay in your memory

Then I recycle my life I shall return
After I die, I believe I will come back to life again

I'm a hop skip and a jump from grippin the pump
I'm very close to grabbing my gun and using it

Spittin a couple of curse words, and hittin you chump
I'll curse at you and use physical force

Shit, I get digits in lumps
I get phone numbers in large quantities

I'm a motherfuckin problem, is this what you want?
I can be a big issue and I'm asking if this is what you want to deal with

Overachiever, I love chicks that puff cheeba in reefer paper
I'm ambitious and enjoy being around women who smoke weed

I hate the ones that blow up ya beeper
I don't like the women who constantly call my phone or blow up my pager

Cause I, go in ya deeper, I only bone divas
I prefer to only have sex with attractive women

Impregnate the world when I "cum" through your speakers [ha ha]
My music has a major impact on the world and people's lives

Fuck hot, my records got the fever
My music is so popular that it's the hottest thing out there

Niggas kick dirt, get ya whole block sweeped up
People talk shit and try to ruin your reputation, causing problems for your community

I creep up when the beef heats up
I come out of nowhere when there's a problem or beef happening

Caught him with his feet up and shoes off, bout to snooze off
I catch people off guard when they're relaxing, even ready to fall asleep

Hatin, cause you can't turn the booze off
People envy me and talk about me because they can't handle their liquor

You dudes is too soft, why I don't fuck with you all
Guys who are weak and soft, I don't want to associate with them

I might bark your ex, and spit at the locks
I might try to seduce your ex-girlfriend and spit some game at her

But, other than that, I don't be fuckin with cats
Besides that, I don't mess with anyone else

Just me Ty and B.I., thug it like that
Ty and B.I. are my friends and we're all about thug life

E, Dame and Biggs, what's fuckin with that?
E, Dame, and Biggs are also part of our crew and we're a force to be reckoned with

Y'all can never diss Jigga, get nothin for that
You can never successfully insult or disrespect me, it won't get you anything

Other than a couple of slugs in ya back [huh huh]
Besides getting shot in retaliation for disrespecting me, you won't gain anything

Rappers y'all, runnin around like I won't gun ya down
Other rappers act like I won't retaliate or use guns against them

Last nigga that fronted, two shots spun him around
The last person who challenged or disrespected me was shot twice and fell to the ground

Lord, accept this offerin here's somethin for your crown
God, accept this sacrifice or tribute of mine

I admit no malice, I just met his challenge and won
I didn't have any ill intentions, I just successfully overcame someone's challenge

How tight is your flow?
How skilled are you at rapping?

How right is your dough?
How much money do you have?

How white is your blow?
How pure and potent is your cocaine?

Only, write what you know
Stick to rapping about things you're knowledgeable and experienced in

Girls and guns, all I want
I enjoy two things in life: women and firearms

stock exchange, rocks and thangs
I'm also interested in making money through investing and owning jewelry
