You can pay for school, but you can't buy class
Jay-Z
Gotta keep it peace like a buddhist Nobody gonna Wesley snipe me It's less than likely, Move back, Let I breathe Jedi knight, The more space I get the better I write, (Oh) Never I write, but, if, ever I write, I need the space to say whatever I like.
Jay-Z
Hip-hop is a perfect mix between poetry and boxing.
Jay-Z
Only God can judge me so I'm gone, either love me or leave me alone.
Jay-Z
I'm a mirror. If you're cool with me, I'm cool with you, and the exchange starts. What you see is what you reflect. If you don't like what you see, then you've done something. If I'm standoffish, that's because you are.
Jay-Z
Niggas pray and pray on my downfall, But every time I hit the ground I bounce up like round ball
Jay-Z
If your dad died before you were born, yeah, it hurts — but it’s not like you had a connection with something that was real. Not to say it’s any better — but to have that connection and then have it ripped away was, like, the worst. My dad was such a good dad that when he left, he left a huge scar. He was my superhero.
Jay-Z
Hip-hop is more about attaining wealth. People respect success. They respect big. They don't even have to like your music. If you're big enough, people are drawn to you.
Jay-Z
Everybody look at you strange, say you changed Like you work that hard to stay the same.
Jay-Z
[Banning marriage equality is] discrimination, plain and simple. It's really not about votes. It's about people. I think it's the right thing to do as a human being.
Jay-Z
The most amazing feeling I feel Words can't describe what I'm feeling for real Maybe I paint the sky blue My greatest creation was you.
Jay-Z
I'm not a businessman, I'm a business, man!
Jay-Z
There's the gift, there's the spirit, and there's the work-all three have to come together. If one of those things is off, it can stop you from becoming who you were meant to be.
Jay-Z
Stop screamin', you know the demon said it's best to die, And even if Jehovah witness, bet he'll never testify, D'Evils.
Jay-Z
You know the type: loud as a motorbike but wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.
Jay-Z
How could I be out there and not do anything?
Jay-Z
Remind yourself. Nobody built like you, you design yourself.
Jay-Z
In trouble waters I had to learn how to float
Jay-Z
Your future is ahead of you. Imagine the notion of the past fifteen years of your life being a blip in your story.
Jay-Z
People really feel like music is free, but will pay $6 for water. You can drink water free out of the tap and it's good water. But they're okay paying for it. It's just the mindset right now.
