[Intro: Jay-Z]
Everybody put they diamonds in the air tonight
Fellow Americans
It is with the utmost pride and sincerity that I present this recording
As a living testament and recollection of history in the making during our generation
[Verse 1: JAY-Z]
Allow me to re-introduce myself, my name is— H-to-the-O-V
I used to move snowflakes by the O-Z
I guess even back then you could call me
CEO of the R-O-C
Fresh out the fryin' pan into the fire
I be the music biz number one supplier
Flyer than a piece of paper bearin' my name
Got the hottest chick in the game wearin' my chain, that's right
Not D.O.C
But similar to them letters, no one can do it better
I check cheddar like a food inspector
My homie Strict told me, "Dude, finish your breakfast"
So that's what I'ma do, take you back to the dude with the Lexus
Fast-forward the jewels and the necklace
Let me tell you dudes what I do to protect this
Shoot at you actors like movie directors
[Interlude: Jay-Z]
(Wow) Now before I finish, let me just say (Wow)
I did not come here to show out
Did not come here to impress you (Everybody put the diamonds back in the air)
Because to tell you the truth, when I leave here, I'm gone
And I don't care what you think about me
But just remember, when it hits the fan, brother (If you havin' a good time tonight)
Whether it's next year, ten years, twenty years from now
You'll never be able to say that these brothers lied to you, jack (Make some noise)
