[Verse 1: Jay-Z] Growin up in the hood just my dog and me We used to hustle in the hood for all to see Problems, I called on him, he called on me We wasn't quite partners, I hit him off my P Let him unlocked doors, off my keys Yeah we spoke, much more than cordially Man he broke bread with me, my business spread swiftly The Feds came to get me, we both fled quickly Wasn't quick enough to jump over the hedges with me Got caught, and that's when our relationship strayed Used to call me from the joint til he ran out of change And when he called collect and I heard his name I quickly accepted, but when I reached the phone He's talkin reckless, I can sense deceit in his tone I said, "Damn dawg, what, nine weeks and you're home?" He said, "Main man, you think shit's sweet cause you're home." I just sat, spat no more speech in the phone The crackers up there bleachin your dome, You're reachin I said, "The world don't stop I've got to keep keep on." From there I sensed the beef was on I ran to the spot, store to add some more features to my phone To see if I had bugs and leeches on my phone Can't be too safe cause n**gaz is two-faced And they show the other side when they catch a new case It's on [Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked (Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago) Funny what, seven days can change A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip Now you droppin names Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago) [Verse 2: Jay-Z] Like I put the toast to your head and made you sell We both came in this game, blind as hell I did a little better, had more clientele Told you put away some cheddar Now you cryin for bail Seventeen and I'm holdin on to around a mill I could bail out And blow trial and come around on appeal Had n**gaz thinkin I was from Uptown for real I had so much hustle plus I was down to ill Like a Brooklyn n**ga, straight out of Brownsville Down and dirty, down to fight the round thirty Freezin on them corners still holdin my crack Lookin up and down the block, the fuck is the dough at? Came from flat broke to lettin the dough stack You tell them feds I said I'm never goin back I'm from Marcy, and Marcy don't raise no rats You know the consequences of your acts, you can't be serious [Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked (Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago) Funny what, seven days can change A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip Now you droppin names Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago) [Verse 3: Jay-Z] The lawyer I retained you said you leakin some things All this after a week in the bang I'm mad at myself cause I didn't spot the weak and lame I woulda bet the house you wouldn't speak a thang N**ga this was the oath, to the top or broke Even pricked our finger, anything that got between us We sposed to cock the ninas, what happened to that? Instead you copped out To a misdemeanor Fuck it, the same thing make you laugh make you cry That's right, the same game that make you math could make you die It's a dice game, and sometimes you crap Who woulda thought you'd get popped one time and rat? Now you know that's bad when your sister is mad And your son gotta grow up like, "This is my dad?" The labeling of a snitch is a lifetime scar You'll always be in jail n**ga, just minus the bars [Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked (Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago) Funny what, seven days can change A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip Now you droppin names Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago) [Too Short:] Shit is crazy man All these n**gaz out here snitchin We was one step away from takin this crack money And recyclin it through the ghettoes And buildin back up our own hoods Now all you n**gaz start snitchin on each other I got partners doin 15-20 Wouldn'ta been doin SHIT If you didn't snitch Beyotch!

Jay-Z – A fabulously wealthy man (worth more than $ 30 billion), husband of the first R&B diva Beyonce and former staffing director of the Def Jam label, Jay-Z is one of the leading figures in hip-hop today, he is also often called "The greatest of MC". His youth was "stormy and interesting": for example, at the age of 12, Sean wounded his brother with a pistol, who stole his bracelets, rings and other tsatski from him; in addition, the rapper confessed that he was a young man selling cocaine and crack on the streets. Jay-Z went to school with Busta Rhymes and Notorious BIG, and of course started writing and reading early. Rap. – Джей-Зи Джей

[Too Short:] and the jewelry..

[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
Growin up in the hood just my dog and me
We used to hustle in the hood for all to see
Problems, I called on him, he called on me
We wasn't quite partners,
I hit him off my P
Let him unlocked doors, off my keys
Yeah we spoke, much more than cordially
Man he broke bread with me, my business spread swiftly
The Feds came to get me, we both fled quickly
Wasn't quick enough to jump over the hedges with me
Got caught, and that's when our relationship strayed
Used to call me from the joint til he ran out of change
And when he called collect and I heard his name
I quickly accepted, but when I reached the phone
He's talkin reckless, I can sense deceit in his tone
I said, "Damn dawg, what, nine weeks and you're home?"
He said, "Main man, you think shit's sweet cause you're home."
I just sat, spat no more speech in the phone
The crackers up there bleachin your dome,
You're reachin
I said, "The world don't stop I've got to keep keep on."
From there I sensed the beef was on
I ran to the spot, store to add some more features to my phone
To see if I had bugs and leeches on my phone
Can't be too safe cause n**gaz is two-faced
And they show the other side when they catch a new case
It's on

[Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z]
It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke
And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks
I don't see how this side of you could be provoked
(Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago)
Funny what, seven days can change
A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim
Used to have a firm grip
Now you droppin names
Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago)

[Verse 2: Jay-Z]
Like I put the toast to your head and made you sell
We both came in this game, blind as hell
I did a little better, had more clientele
Told you put away some cheddar
Now you cryin for bail
Seventeen and I'm holdin on to around a mill
I could bail out
And blow trial and come around on appeal
Had n**gaz thinkin I was from Uptown for real
I had so much hustle plus I was down to ill
Like a Brooklyn n**ga, straight out of Brownsville
Down and dirty, down to fight the round thirty
Freezin on them corners still holdin my crack
Lookin up and down the block, the fuck is the dough at?
Came from flat broke to lettin the dough stack
You tell them feds I said I'm never goin back
I'm from Marcy, and Marcy don't raise no rats
You know the consequences of your acts, you can't be serious

[Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z]
It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke
And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks
I don't see how this side of you could be provoked
(Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago)
Funny what, seven days can change
A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim
Used to have a firm grip
Now you droppin names
Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago)

[Verse 3: Jay-Z]
The lawyer I retained you said you leakin some things
All this after a week in the bang
I'm mad at myself cause I didn't spot the weak and lame
I woulda bet the house you wouldn't speak a thang
N**ga this was the oath, to the top or broke
Even pricked our finger, anything that got between us
We sposed to cock the ninas, what happened to that?
Instead you copped out
To a misdemeanor
Fuck it, the same thing make you laugh make you cry
That's right, the same game that make you math could make you die
It's a dice game, and sometimes you crap
Who woulda thought you'd get popped one time and rat?
Now you know that's bad when your sister is mad
And your son gotta grow up like, "This is my dad?"
The labeling of a snitch is a lifetime scar
You'll always be in jail n**ga, just minus the bars

[Chorus: Too Short, Jay-Z]
It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke
And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks
I don't see how this side of you could be provoked
(Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago)

A stand up n**ga, now you sit down to aim
Used to have a firm grip
Now you droppin names
Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago)

[Too Short:]
Shit is crazy man
All these n**gaz out here snitchin
We was one step away from takin this crack money
And recyclin it through the ghettoes
And buildin back up our own hoods
Now all you n**gaz start snitchin on each other
I got partners doin 15-20
Wouldn'ta been doin SHIT
If you didn't snitch
Beyotch!
It's about time y'all check that shit out man
It ain't all good
Shut your mouth, just watch the game
And don't snitch, it sure will do a lot for you
Believe that baby
Jay-Z, Short Dawg's in the house main
You know I got it, got it goin on
We got the money
Ain't got nuthin to do with crime baby
But I'm recognizing

[Jay-Z:]
You rat bastard!
