Jay Z - Whats In A Name Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rough the way it oughta be
[?] KRS-One all the way up to 19 Naughty III
The Mighty [?] House of Pain
Nice & Smooth ain't a goddamn thing changed
So bring a Gang Starr
I throw a bolo
And run up on a tribe of niggas, K-Solo
I don't need a crew to stop a nigga like [?]
I need a doctor 'cause I got the Ill Street Blues
I buck [?] in the water, don't sleep
Cause some of you niggas thought Rakim was just a well-mannered reporter
Chances are we wreck, nine times [?]
Bullets, spit, [?] Das EFX
I'm blowin' out like an afro, gettin' props global
When I get down I paint your town redder than Reggie Noble
The L.O.N.S. when I bust a rhyme, you feel thе pressure
The hеad of my class, got an A+ on the Large Professor
Check out my melody, follow my lead it ain't hard
Jay Z for president, I'm naming broad to national [?]
Oh Lord, do I finesse and [?]
And let's battle for Heavy D-o-u-g-h
Let's get the I let's get to the H
Ain't nobody fuckin' around I'm absolutely positive, K
Original Flavor, the [?] peace
[?] wild like Black Sheep
And if Apache got all the gangsta bitches [?]
Then I be hangin with the [?]
I disable a honey 'til she need a cane
Cause I'm the moth- ahh skip it what's in a name
[Verse 2]
If you play, you pay the price
Nobody to your rescue, not [?] or D-Nice
I put something in your heart, cause I ain't Ice-T
When I hit 'em [?] than iced tea
I'm nasty, nah don't give me no problem
I'm steady mobbin' when I [?] 'em
Niggas wanna base, I rob 'em
Easy when I rock 'em, mama said knock em, out
So I drop 'em
Slow me down but never stop him
I out Freddie Foxx em
You'd think I was kiddin back in the days the way I box em
Gettin' treacherous on your nap
Act like a teenager when I tap your bottle and twist your cap
On and on from little Shawn to big Shawn
Play and get your paper dolls torn like P.M. Dawn
Got a hard pack of brothers who don't care
A couple extra posse's ready to throw they guns in your ear
We went back to back, brothers front [?]
Take your dough out your pockets like we just bootlegged your tape
If you riff on your EP you gonna need an MD
So you gots to chill, 'cause I kill at will, like solid water, dude
Y'all niggas don't get it... Kill at Will... solid water... Ice Cube
When [?]
I got niggas screamin like Rodney King
"Can we all just get along?" no
I'm P.E. #1, my uzi weighs a ton
This is my house, run
I got a bullseye and a good aim
I don't care who you are I'ma set it, what's in your name
[Verse 3]
I got a split personality when I drop
For honies it's C.L. Smooth for niggas it's Pete Rock
Growin' up in the hood like MC Eiht but I ain't wanna bite, I'm Wonder Mike
Brothers go solo, I mean so low on the track
And if you give that tape I'm like cool, but [?]
I father MC's, my new jack swing
They wanna be like Don Dada, I'm Super Cat
Lost in the storm, niggas [?] search
I like the scenario in [?]
[?] I burst peace to the gods and earth
Rest in peace [?]
When I cold crush a brother, he need a cast
[?]
Open up your mind, get in a MC's brain
Cause as you see it's a whole lot in the name
Ok I'll slow it down for you
When I let it all hang out honies scream I adore you
A giant in the showbiz, probably the best one
I gotta know, is Prince really a king's son?
Pop niggas, I rock em
Brand new like The Heavies
I slaughter, bring your guns and roses, cause niggas is Tom Petty
[?]
