Jay-z - Anything lyrics

* this track is #14 on Beanie Sigel's "The Truth" released 2/29/00

[Jay-Z]

Uh huh yea, yeah

Guru!

You gotta let it bump

Uh, uh, uh like dat yeah

Come on bring the chorus in

1 - I'd risk everything

For one kiss, everything

Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)

Anything for you

I抎 do a bid, loose a rib, bust a cap, trustin' that

Run up to heaven doors, exchange my life for yours

Leave a steak out the door, mi casa, su casa

Just remember to turn the lights off in the hall

My brother from anotha pop, minus one shot

We Neno and G-Money man, we all we got

From the stoop to the big dudes, stoppin' us from playin' hoops

And us gettin mad, throwin' rocks off the roof

Straight thuggin' man, I thought we would never progress

But look at us now man, we're young execs

My nigga Dame, my nigga Biggs, my nigga Tah

My nigga Ja, my nigga Gotti

We embody all that抯 right with the world

No matter how pretty she is, you never likin' my girl

That's how we run, when you ain抰 around

I'll spank ya son, keep him in line

If you should die, I抣l keep him like mine

God forbid, keep this in mind, my nigga

Repeat 1

Repeat 1

I know mama, your little baby

But these streets raised me crazy

Product of my environment, nothing can save me

Thanks for letting me bloom for your wisdom for your womb

For the roof over my head, for my shoes, for my bed

For the most important lesson in life was when you said

"Strive for what you believe in, set goals and you can achieve them"

Thanks for the days you kept me breathing when my asthma was bad

And my chest was weezin', thanks for the look of love

Just as I was leavin'

On nights you thought that I wouldn't come back

That left you grieving'

Thanks for holdin' down the household when times was bad

As the man, I apologize for my dad

When the rent was due, you would hustle like a pimp would do

That wasn抰 the life meant for you

You抮e a queen, you deserve the cream

Everything that gleamed, everything that shines

Everything that抯 mine

Repeat 1

Repeat 1

Check it out, uh, uh

Dear nephews, I抦 writing' this with no pen or a pad

And I抦 signing it, ya uncle, ya best friend, and ya dad

Don't look back if you fall and you抮e feeling bad

I抦 right there from your cut to when you peelin' the scab

If it comes a time when you ain抰 feelin' your real dad

Put my face on his body don抰 wait for nobody

Don抰 follow no nigga, that's hoe shit man

Stand on your own two, do your shit man

The world is yours

Some girls are nice some girls are whores

Don't listen to your crew

Do what works for you

Standin' back from situations gives you the perfect view

You see the snakes in the grass and you wait on their ass

Bite your tongue for no one and whatever is said

Take it how they want, a closed mouth don't get fed,

You know my number when it抯 code red if you're wrong my nigga

You抮e my nephew, fuck it we get it on my lil nigga

Repeat 1 until fade
