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.

Hip-hop has done so much for racial relations, and I don't think it's given the proper credit. It has changed America immensely. I'm going to make a very bold statement: Hip-hop has done more than any leader, politician, or anyone to improve race relations.

Don't tell me what was said about me. Tell me why they were so comfortable to say it to you.
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
If I don't show the world growth, how are we going to grow?
Jay-Z
We'll have a baby who stutters repeatedly We'll name him history
Jay-Z
If skills sold truth be told I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli Truthfully I want to rhyme like Common Sense (But I did five Mil) I ain't been rhyming like Common since.
Jay-Z
The genius thing that we did was, we didn't give up.
Jay-Z
I use a lot of double meanings. I hide 'em like Easter eggs.
Jay-Z
I don't even like the word politics. It implies something underhanded and I think we need less government.
Jay-Z
So many people that I've seen can't get clean water. It's a crime.
Jay-Z
No matter where you go, you are what you are playa.

I'm not saying I'm God. But as far as lyrics, I'm God MC.
Jay-Z
For me, being with Obama or having dinner with Bill Clinton... It's crazy. It's mind-blowing, because where I come from is just another world. We were just ignored by politicians, by America in general.
