Streets Is Watching(Album Version)

[00:00:00] Streets Is Watching (街道观看) (Album Version) - Jay-Z (杰斯)

[00:00:01] Written by:Labi Siffre/Shawn Carter/David Willis

[00:00:20] Look if I shoot you I'm brainless

[00:00:22] But if you shoot me then you're famous

[00:00:24] What's a ni**a to do

[00:00:25] When the streets is watching blocks keep clocking

[00:00:28] Waiting for you to break make your first mistake

[00:00:30] Can't ignore it that's the fastest way to get extorted

[00:00:33] But my time is money and twenty five I can't afford it

[00:00:36] Beef assorted like Godiva chocolates

[00:00:38] *s you bought it I pull the slide back and cock it

[00:00:41] Plan aborted you and your mans get a pass

[00:00:43] This rhyme you're operating on b**ch time

[00:00:46] Y'all *s ain't worth my shells all y'all *s

[00:00:48] Trying to do is hurt my sales and stop trips to John Meneilly

[00:00:51] The type to start a beef then run to the cops

[00:00:53] When I see you in the street got one in the drop

[00:00:56] When I'd rather be on tour getting a hundred a pop

[00:00:59] Taking pictures with some b**ches in front of the drop

[00:01:01] The streets is watching

[00:01:02] When the streets is watching

[00:01:03] Blocks keep clocking

[00:01:04] Waiting for you to break make your first mistake

[00:01:12] Can't ignore it

[00:01:12] Now it's hard not to kill *s

[00:01:14] It's like a full time job not to kill *s can't chill

[00:01:17] The streets is watching

[00:01:18] When you froze your arms

[00:01:20] *s want to test you when your gun goes warm

[00:01:22] Can't get caught with your feet up got to keep your heat up

[00:01:25] Sweet *s running 'round swearing sh*t is sweeter

[00:01:27] Once you're tagged lame the game is follow the leader

[00:01:30] Everybody want a piece of your Scrilla so you gotta keep it realer

[00:01:33] Kidnap *s want to steal you

[00:01:35] Broke *s don't want no cash they just want to kill ya

[00:01:38] For the name *s don't know the rules

[00:01:40] Disrespecting the game want you to blow your cool

[00:01:43] Force your hand of course that man's plotting

[00:01:46] Smarten up the streets is watching it's on

[00:01:53] When the streets is watching

[00:01:55] Blocks keep clocking

[00:01:56] Waiting for you to break make your first mistake

[00:01:58] Can't ignore it

[00:02:03] My street mentality flip bricks forever

[00:02:05] Know me and money we like armed co defendants

[00:02:07] Ni**a we stick together

[00:02:09] Sh*t whatever for this cheddar ran my game into the ground

[00:02:11] Hustle harder until secret indictment time came around

[00:02:14] And you can look up and down the streets and I can't be found

[00:02:16] Put in twenty four hour shifts but that ain't me now

[00:02:19] Got a face too easy to trace *s mouths got slow leaks

[00:02:22] Had to hire a team of workers couldn't play those streets

[00:02:24] See out of space like Mercury you jerkin me hectic

[00:02:27] Had to call upon my wolves to send *s the message

[00:02:29] I said this 'let's play fair and we can stay here

[00:02:32] I'm trying to transform you boys to men like daycare'

[00:02:35] Ay there's money to be made and *s got the picture

[00:02:37] Stopped playing with my paper and we got richer

[00:02:40] Then hard times fell upon us

[00:02:41] Half of my staff had warrants

[00:02:43] The other half in the casket lay dormant

[00:02:45] I felt like life was cheating me

[00:02:46] For the first time in my life I was getting money

[00:02:48] But it was like my conscience was eating me

[00:02:50] Was this a lesson god teaching me was he saying that

[00:02:53] I was playing the game straight from hell from which few came back

[00:02:55] Like bad coke pimp or die was my mind frame bad

[00:02:58] Was *s thinking simplify was turning coc*ine crack

[00:03:00] Ain't a whole lot of brain to that

[00:03:02] Just trying to maintain a stack

[00:03:03] And not collide like two trains that's on the same track

[00:03:05] But get my life together like the oils I bring back

[00:03:08] In the bottom of the pot where the water gets hot

[00:03:11] Got my transporter take it across the border then stop

[00:03:13] To set up shop with a quarter of rock

[00:03:15] Here's the plan

[00:03:16] For three straight weeks *s slaughtered the block

[00:03:19] But you know the game is food it f**ked up me and my dudes

[00:03:21] One drought can wipe a ni**a out faster than the cops

[00:03:24] And this unstable way of living just had to stop

[00:03:26] Half of my *s got time we done real things

[00:03:29] By '94 became the subject of half of y'all *s rhymes

[00:03:32] Public apologies to the families of those caught up in my sh*t

[00:03:34] But that's the life for us lost souls brought up in this sh*t

[00:03:37] The life and times of a demonic mind excited with crime

[00:03:39] And the lavish luxuries that just excited my mind

[00:03:42] I figured sh*t why risk myself I just write it in rhymes

[00:03:44] And let you feel me and if you don't like it then fine

[00:03:47] The mind state of a ni**a who boosted the crime rate

[00:03:50] So high in one city they send national guards to get me
