The Ruler's Back (Complete version originally performed by Jay-Z) - Jay-Z
I am back niggaz
Ladies and gentlemen H to the Izzo
I want to thank everybody
Out there for they purchase
I surely appreciate it - whoo
What you about to witness is my thoughts
Just my thoughts man - right or wrong
Just what I was feeling at the time uhh
You ever felt like this you vibe with me
Walk with a ni**a man - just vibe with me
Yo gather round hustlers that's if you still livin
And get on down to that ol' Jig rhythm
Here's a couple of jewels to help you
Get through your bid in prison
A ribbon in the sky keep your head high
I Young 'Vito voice of the young people
Mouthpiece for hustlers
I'm back motherf**kers
Your reign on the top was shorter than leprechauns
Why'all can't f**k with Hov'
What type of X why'all on
I got great lawyers for cops so dress warm
Charges don't stick to dude he's teflon
I'm too sexy for jail like I'm Right Said Fred
I'm not guilty now GIMME back my bread
Mr District Attorney I'm not sure if they told you
I'm on TV every day where the f**k could I go to
Plus - Hov' don't run Hov' stand and fight
Hov's a soldier Hov' been fightin all his life so
What could you do to me It's not new to me
Sue me; f**k you - what's a couple dollars to me
But you will respect me simple as that
Or I got no problem goin back
I'm representin for the seat where Rosa Parks sat
Where Malcolm X was shot
Where Martin Luther was popped
So off we go let the trumpets blow
And hold on because the driver of the mission is a pro
The ruler's back
Uhh uh-huh uhh uhh
