Letra de Renegade - JAY-Z

(Feat. Eminem)

Motherfuckers say that I'm foolish, I only talk about jewels (Bling-bling)

Do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it?

See, I'm influenced by the ghetto you ruined

The same dude you gave nothin', I made somethin' doin'

What I do through and through and

I give you the news with a twist, it's just his ghetto point of view

The renegade, you been afraid I penetrate pop culture

Bring 'em a lot closer to the block where they pop toasters

And they live with they moms, got dropped roadsters

From botched robberies, niggas crouched over

Mami'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 bring you through the ghetto without ridin' 'round

Hidin' 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 nothin' 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'll lose your tie and your shirt

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 y'all'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

Usin' his music to steer it, sharin' his views and his merits?

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 (Ha), and you get embarrassed

And I got nothin' to do but make you look stupid as parents

You fuckin' do-gooders, too bad you couldn't do good at marriage (Haha)

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-Jur-Jigga-Jih-Jigga

And I'm the sinister Mr. Kiss-My-Ass is just a

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, 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)

I had to hustle, my back to the wall, ashy knuckles

Pockets filled with a lotta lint, not a cent

Gotta vent, lotta innocent lives lost on the project bench

What you hollerin'? Gotta pay rent, bring dollars in

By the bodega, iron under my coat, feelin' braver

Durag wrappin' my waves up, pockets full of hope

Do not step to me

I'm awkward, I box lefty

An orphan, my pops left me

And often my mama wasn't home

Could not stress to me, I wasn't grown

'Specially on nights I brought somethin' home to quiet the stomach rumblings

My demeanor thirty years my senior

My childhood didn't mean much, only raisin' green up

Raisin' my fingers to critics, raisin' my head to the sky

Big, I did it, multi before I die (Nigga)

No lie, just know I chose my own fate

I drove by the fork in the road and went straight

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 monger of hate, satanist, 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 latter, a gateway to escape?

Media scapegoat who they can be mad at today

See, it's as easy as cake, simple as whistlin' "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 tried 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' his butter off these bloodsuckers, 'cause I'm a motherfuckin'

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, 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)

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, 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)
