歌曲：Public Service Announcement - Interlude
This is a public service
announcement
Sponsored by Just Blaze
at Roc-A-Fella Records
and the good folks
"Fellow Americans,
it is with the utmost pride
and sincerity that I
present this recording
as a living testiment
and recollection
of history in the making
during our generation."
Allow me to re-
introduce myself
My name is Hov',
OH, H-to-the-O-V
I used to move snowflakes
by the O-Z
I guess even back
then you can call me
CEO of the R-O-C, Hov'!
Fresh out the fryin pan
into the fire
I be the, music biz
number one supplier
Flyer than a piece of
paper bearin my name
Got the hottest chick
in the game wearin my chain,
that's right
Hov', OH - not D.O.C.
But similar to them letters,
"No One Can Do it Better"
I check cheddar
like a food inspector
My homey Strict told me,
"Dude finish your breakfast"
So that's what I'ma do,
take you back to the dude
with the Lexus,
fast-forward the jewels
and the necklace
Let me tell you dudes
what I do to protect this
I shoot at you actors
like movie directors
This ain't a movie dog
"Now before I finish,
let me just say
I did not come here
to show out,
did not come here to
impress you
Because to tell you the truth
when I leave here I'm GONE!
And I don't care
WHAT you think about me -
but just remember,
when it hits the fan brother,
whether it's next year,
ten years,
twenty years from now,
you're gonna be able to say
that these brothers
lied to you JACK!"
Ving ain't lie
I done came through the block
in everything that's fly
I'm like,
Che Guevara with bling on,
I'm complex
I never claimed to have
wings on
Nigga I get mine -
by any means on whenever
there's a drought
Get your umbrellas out because
that's when I brainstorm
You can blame Shawn,
but I ain't invent the game
I just rolled the dice,
tryin to get some change
And I do it twice,
ain't no sense in me
lyin as if,
I am a different man
And I could blame
my environment but
there ain't no reason why
I be buyin expensive chains
Hope you don't think
youse as hardy
Only a fews-us niggaz,
gettin high within the game
If you do then,
how would you explain?
I'm ten years removed,
still the vibe is in my veins
I got a hustler spirit,
nigga period
Check out my hat yo,
peep the way I wear it
Check out my swag' yo,
I walk like a ballplayer
No matter where you go,
you are what you are player
And you can try to change
but that's just the top layer
Man, you was who you
was 'fore you got here
Only God can judge me,
so I'm gone
Either love me,
or leave me alone
