Niggas pray and pray on my downfall, But every time I hit the ground I bounce up like round ball
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
As kids we didn't complain about being poor we talked about how rich we were going to be and made moves to get the lifestyle we aspired to by any means we could. And as soon as we had a little money, we were eager to show it.
Jay-Z
I don't even like the word politics. It implies something underhanded and I think we need less government.
