More quotes by Jay-Z
Their gunnin' for me, want to see me fall, you know my story, been through it all, times I felt like dyin', but I ain't cryin', what didn't kill me, makes me strong as iron.
Jay-Z
For me, the challenge is just making great albums, because talent - and writing in general - is not tangible. There's no expiration date on it. At the same time, you might wake up tomorrow and be unable to write music.
Jay-Z
I don't even like the word politics. It implies something underhanded and I think we need less government.
Jay-Z
I believe you can speak things into existence.
Jay-Z
I'm not saying I'm God. But as far as lyrics, I'm God MC.
Jay-Z
I'm gonna fight, and I'm gonna make something out of nothing. That's pretty much the American dream. So, for me, the realization that I could speak to people like that came first on a small scale. Then it just started happening. I started having this vibration.
Jay-Z
Niggas pray and pray on my downfall, But every time I hit the ground I bounce up like round ball
Jay-Z
What people do in their own homes is their business, and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It's no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination, plain and simple.
Jay-Z
My tears is tatted, my rag in my pocket / Im just looking for love, I know somebody got it
Jay-Z
Everything evens up, you just wait, Even a garbage can gets a steak, You ain't even a garbage can, you have faith!
Jay-Z
Remind yourself. Nobody built like you, you design yourself.
Jay-Z
No one's walking around here perfect. Everyone's gonna make mistakes. That's part of how you learn.
Jay-Z
I was forced to be an artist and a CEO from the beginning, so I was forced to be like a businessman because when I was trying to get a record deal, it was so hard to get a record deal on my own that it was either give up or create my own company.
Jay-Z
I'm far from being god, but I work god damn hard.
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
The reason I've been groundedand able to make albums, is because I've allowed my friends to come with me and voice an opinion. That's who keeps you grounded, the people who have known you longest.
Jay-Z
When people say stuff like, Oh, that's soft rock. I don't listen to that, I find that elitist. It's music-racist.
Jay-Z
The genius thing that we did was, we didn't give up.
Jay-Z
Now success was like lust, she's good to the touch, She's good for the moment, but she's never enough
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
