[00:03.02] Jeah.. uhh.. what shall I do for a livin nigga

[00:18.27] Okay, let's do this {*the watcher*}
[00:21.64][Verse One: Jay-Z]
[00:22.40] Things just ain't the same for gangsters
[00:23.83] But I'm a little too famous to shoot these pranksters
[00:26.08] All of these rap singers claimin they bangers
[00:28.21] Doin all sorts of twisted shit with they fingers
[00:30.64] Disrespectin the game, no home trainin or manners
[00:32.77] I was doin this shit when you was shittin Pampers
[00:35.27] I was movin them grams 'fore you, knew what a hand that hand was
[00:38.77] Duckin the vans, radars, the scanners
[00:40.58] 'Fore you knew what hard white to tame was
[00:42.96] I was hittin the turnpike, aight with the bammers
[00:45.08] I was nice with my hands, 'cause aight with them hammers
[00:47.58] I was prickin my finger 'fore you knew what a Fam was
[00:50.33] I had it laid out 'fore you knew what a plan was
[00:53.15] Three hundred mill' later, now you understand us
[00:55.02] Y'all ain't see us comin through Vegas
[00:56.71] You ever seen so much cham' bust in one night
[00:59.03] Grand fucked up one fight
[01:00.16] I was on the Peter Pan bus
[01:01.60] You was Peter Pan up in your room, y'all fuckin with whom?
[01:04.66] Allow me to retort
[01:06.41] You cowards is just now learnin the shit that we taught
[01:09.41] You niggaz ain't know about a Robb Report
[01:11.91] Bout a high speed Porsche,
[01:13.54] I.e., you niggaz ain't know how to floss
[01:15.85] 'Til I came through the door
[01:17.10] Like "Eric B. for Pres," respect me in this BITCH!
[01:19.28] You can't disrespect us cause you got a little check cut
[01:21.85] You was suckin so long, fuckin ya little neck up
[01:23.91] Now you too big for your britches, you got a few little bitches
[01:27.10] You think you Hugh Hefner, you just ridiculous
[01:29.10] I blew breath on you midgets, I gave light to the game
[01:31.73] It's only right I got the right to be king
[01:33.72] Niggaz that got life really like what I sing
[01:35.91] Cause they know is he really like, niggaz feel my pain
[01:38.41] Know the shit I DON'T write
[01:39.91] Be the illest shit that's ever been recited
[01:41.66] In the game word to the hyphen in my NAME!
[01:43.85] J, A, Y, DASH, Hoffa
[01:45.78] The past, present, nigga the future, proper
[01:48.10] The holy trinity of hip-hop is us
[01:50.35] We give, Dre his props BUT that's where it stops
[01:52.97] It's the Roc
[01:53.85][Chorus: Truth Hurts]
[01:54.66] I know, you got your eyes on me
[01:57.10] I feel you watchin me
[01:59.29] But it ain't hard to see that you can't see me
[02:03.10] You try, but what you think you saw
[02:06.60] Ain't what you thought you saw
[02:08.98] You bed-da off not lookin at all
[02:12.41] (Everywhere that I go, ain't the same as befo')
[02:16.85] (People I used to know, just don't know me no mo')
[02:21.29] (But everywhere that I go, I got people I know)
[02:26.29] (Who got people they know, so I suggest you lay low)
[02:30.10][Verse Two: Dr. Dre]
[02:32.41] I'm still on top of the game
[02:34.04] Still droppin flames, still cock and aim
[02:36.73] Still at the top had the Roc for the fame
[02:38.85] over setbacks, there's been a lot since I came
[02:41.66] You seen it all, how I got, how I gained
[02:43.98] The momentum when it dropped, how I got through the pain
[02:46.29] When I roll and shock, they watched me reclaim
[02:48.60] the streets, they made a special spot for my name
[02:51.29] Dre, haters wanna stop to my reign
[02:53.04] But the music lives in me, every drop in my veins
[02:55.98] The pride and the pain
[02:57.35] All the way back from the rise of my name
[02:59.72] See the world clear through the eyes of the mane
[03:02.04] See the world chear for the rhymes that I gave
[03:04.54] When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane
[03:06.79] The eyes that I played
[03:08.10] The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher
[03:10.48][Chorus]
[03:10.98]
[03:16.29][Verse Three: Rakim]
[03:30.60]
[03:49.07] I'm "Rated R," my brain contains graphics thangs
[03:51.38] It turn traumatic teens into addicts, and fiends
[03:53.95] It's like, watchin a movie through a panoramic screen
[03:56.20] Which means, I can see the whole planet in the scene
[03:58.82] Cash is the topic, the object, a fatter pocket
[04:01.32] Some take the crack and chop it, but those that haven't got it
[04:04.20] take away the added profit, it's catastrophic
[04:05.94] I take the gat and cock it, and I'll sit back and watch it
[04:08.95] These New York streets is ugly, I keep it gully
[04:11.39] The world is mine and can't nobody keep it from me
[04:13.76] Yo, my neighborhood is never sunny
[04:15.45] In the place where the number one cause of death is money
[04:18.20] You can try copin
[04:19.57] I've seen enough shit to leave your frame of mind broken
[04:22.01] I'm still alive and scopin
[04:23.32] Be another hundred years 'til my skies close in
[04:25.51] And I'ma die with my eyes open, the watcher {*echoes*}
[04:30.20][Chorus]
