RENEGADE
[Jay-Z: Verse]
Motherfuckers say that I'm foolish, I only talk about
jewels
Do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it?
See
I'm influenced by the ghetto you ruined
That same dude you gave nothing, I
made something doing
What I do, through and through and I gave you the news
with a twist it's just his ghetto point of view
The renegade you been
afraid
You penetrate pop culture, bring 'em a lot closer to the block where
they
pop toasters, and they live with they mums
Got dropped roasters, from
botched robberies niggas crotched over
Mummy's knocked up cause she wasn't
watched over
Knocked down by some clown when child support knocked
No he's
not around now how that sound to ya, jot it down
I'll bring you through the
ghetto without ridin round
hiding down duckin strays from frustrated youths
stuck in they ways
Just read a magazine that fucked up my day
How you rate
music that thugs with nothing relate to it?
I help them see they way through
it, not you.
Can't step in my pants, can't walk in my shoes
Bet everything
you worth; you lose your tie and your shirt.
[Eminem:
Verse]
Since I'm in a position to talk to these kids and they listen
I
ain't no politician but I'll kick it with em a minute
Cause see they call me
a menace and if the shoe fits I'll wear it
But if it don't, then ya'll
swallow the truth grin and bear it
Now who's the king of these rude ludicrous
lucrative lyrics
Who could inherit the title, put the youth in
hysterics
Using his music to steer it sharing his views in his
marriage
But there's a huge interference they're sayin you shouldn't hear
it
Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe it's food for the spirit
Maybe it's
beautiful music I made for you to just cherish
But I'm debated disputed hated
and viewed in America
as a motherfuckin drug addict like you didn't
experiment?
Now now, that's when you start to stare at who's in the
mirror
and see yourself as a kid again, and you get embarrassed
And I got
nothing to do but make you look stupid as parents
You fuckin do-gooders - too
bad you couldn't DO-GOOD at marriage!
And do you have any clue what I had to
do to get here I don't
think you do so stay tuned and keep your ears glued to
the stereo
Cause here we go, he's {Jigga durra Jigga da chk Jigga}
And I'm
the sinister, Mr. Kiss-My-Ass it's just the..
[Eminem + Jay-Z -
Chorus]
[Eminem]
RENEGADE! Never been afraid to say
what's
on my mind at, any given time of day
Cause I'm a RENEGADE! Never been afraid
to talk
about anything (ANYTHING) anything (ANYTHING),
RENEGADE!
[Jay-Z]
Never been afraid to say
what's on my mind
at, any given time of day
Cause I'm a (RENEGADE) Never been afraid to
holler
about anything (ANYTHING) anything (ANYTHING)
[Jay-Z:
Verse]
I had to hustle, my back to the wall, ashy knuckles
Pockets
filled with a lot of lint, not a cent
Gotta vent, lot of innocent of lives
lost on the project bench
What you hollarin? Gotta pay rent, bring dollars
in
By the bodega, iron under my coat, feelin braver
Doo-rag wrappin my
waves up, pockets full of hope
Do not step to me I'm awkward, I box leftier
often
My pops left me an orphan, my momma wasn't home
Could not stress to
me I wasn't growin, specially on nights
I brought something home to quiet the
stomach rumblings
My demeanor thirty years my senior
My childhood didn't
mean much, only raisin greener
Raisin my fingers to critics raisin my head to
the sky
Big I did it multi(i) before I die (nigga)
No lie, just know I
chose my own fate
I drove by the fork in the road and went
straight.
[Eminem: Verse]
See I'm a poet to some, a regular
modern day Shakespeare
Jesus Christ the King of these Latter Day Saints
here
To shatter the picture in which of that as they paint me
as a mother
of hate, Satan and scatter-brained atheist
But that ain't the case, see it's
a matter of taste
We as a people decide if Shady's as bad as they say he
is
Or is he the ladder, a gateway to escape?
Media scapegoat, they can be
mad at today
See it's as easy as cake, simple as whistling Dixie
while I'm
wavin the pistol at sixty Christians against me
Go to war with the Mormons,
take a bath with the Catholics
in holy water no wonder they try to hold me
under longer
I'm a motherfuckin spiteful, delightful eyeful
The new Ice
Cube, motherfuckers hate to like you
What did I do? (huh) I'm just a kid from
the gutter
makin this butter off these bloodsuckers, cause I'm a
muh'fuckin
