i love the album but always HATED and skipped this song because of the beat.. anyways, i was working when this song came on, and it caught my attention coz it represents exactly how i feel:
"I never asked for nothin I don't demand of myself
Honesty, loyalty, friends and then wealth
Death before dishonor and I tell you what else
I tighten my belt 'fore I beg for help
Foolish pride is what held me together through the years
I wasn't felt which is why I ain't never played myself
I just play the hand I'm dealt, I can't say I've never knelt
before God and asked for better cards at times to no avail
But I never sat back feelin sorry for myself
If you don't give me heaven I'll raise hell.."
if you told me two years ago that i'd consider Jay-Z the G.O.A.T., i probably would've smacked you upside the head.. now? i've matured a bit and his ish only grows on me more and more by the day..
