    [Jay Z Verse 1]
    Fuck what they all say
    Niggas can't stop me with rumors, Im too strong
    All day, socks exploding sweat pants pockets is bulging
    Holding it down on the corner with my block frozen
    My spot is rolling, drop the price of the coke and
    Drove the competition out and let the doe flow in
    The cops is closing in, I can do the time
    But whats really on my mind, there ain't no ho's in the pen
    I play the low and try to make it hard to find me
    Feds still tryna build a case since 93
    [DMX Verse 2]
    Yo, moves is made, Niggas is paid, that's just how it is
    When my time is up, Ima be out but ima try to live
    I'm eating day by day ain't nothing sweet about it
    Act like you don't know what I'm saying and they'll read about it
    Built for war like an armadillo
    Smother your ass with 2 through the pillow
    Cause my shit is brillo
    Manic depressive and my head hurts
    Yo, give me your doe and your ho
    And here take these four hot things, I got things
    That make niggas spin, put niggas in the wind
    Where you never see niggas again
    I bless a nigga with stitches, the thin type
    And a straight razor will put pin stripes, across your wind pipes
    [ Hashim Hakim Verse 3]
    Start off my day and I'm off and running and I miss my gun
    I'm often blessed but not these days cause its no longer fun
    I am way worse then a banger with 8 bullets left in the chamber
    Can't imagine the danger, when you done got these bow ties angered
    When strangers pissed me off, I got high to control it
    You think I don't get tempted, that would be a lie if I told it, can't hold it
    Outside opposition , got stress on my mind
    But I got inside opposition, coming from my own kind and they're blind
    We walk in peace but don't provoke us, we ain't gon' run
    We fight with those who fight with us but nigga I ain't the one
    You niggas oughta be glad OG got hold of us
    Cause if it wasn't for that man, there be no controlling us
    His body laid in red rum, twisted in broken poses
    Blood puddle soaked in his clothes and it look like roses
    Smelling Folgers and Moses couldn't save him
    We leaving the way we came, As-salamu alaykum

    “Cops is closing in. I can do time but what's really on my mind is ain't no hoes in the pen” is one of the most precise lines ever.
    What made Jay-Z an icon is that no matter how good the other artist went, he never failed to complete one dope line that sinks and lasts throughout the cipher. Fabulous is also good at spitting memorable freestyles.

      Eddie Skinner why are ppl always viewed as dick ridin cause they like someone's work...im just curious nothing personal against you or your statement i see it regarding the female artist as well whether rap, r&b or pop. The person who likes someone's work and or compliments it is seen as an ass kisser, dick rider, jocker, or whatevr other terminology applies by the person who dislikes the artist. whats up with that? we are all individials and like snow flakes no two individuals are alike. with that being said it stands to reason why some ppl love x but hate hov or vice versa, or love rhianna but hate beyonce or vice versa, or love lil kim but hate nikki etc. no one is right or wrong its personal preference no matter who made more money or sold more records or got more grammys sold out more tours at the end of the day its about personal preference because we as individuals like what we like. so i appreciate other ppls perspective of why they feel their personal choice is better than mine...im never pressed, bothered or phased in the least bit about....blowing my wet nails.
