Blueprint 2 Lyrics - The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse - Jay-z

Yeah, yeah 

Uhh, right, right, right 

Right, right, right, right 

Uhh, uhh, uhh, feel me now, listen 

Momma loved me, pop left me 

Mickey fed me and he dressed me 

Eric fought me, made me tougher 

Love you for that my nigga no matter what brah 

Marcy raised me and whether right or wrong 

Streets gave me all I write in the song 

Hootie babysitted, changed my diapers 

Gil introduced me to the game that changed my life up 

East Trenton grew me, had me skippin' school 

Valencia's boyfriend Vovo had me makin' moves 

Momma raised me, pop I miss you

God help me forgive him I got some issues 

Mickey cleaned my ears and he shampooed my hair 

Eric was fly, shit, I used to steal his gear 

I was the baby boy, I could do no wrong 

Yeah it's goin past fast, let's move along 

Kitchen table, that's where I honed my skills 

Jaz made me believe the shit was real 

Labels turned me down, couldn't foresee 

Clark sought me out, Dame believed 

Primo laced me, Ski did too 

Reasonable doubt, classic, shoulda went triple 

Momma loved me, pop left me 

Grandma dressed me, plus she fed me 

Banana puddin', what's in the hood then 

Puffin' on L's, drinkin' pink champelle 

Ty rolled with a nigga, V.A. spot 

Tone, Mike 'Zo and them niggaz, V.A.'s locked 

Vigs fucked with a nigga, whassup, ha?

[Unverified] high hated the fact I put rap to the back 

Money pourin' in, clientele growin' now 

Birth of my first nephew, time to slow it down 

October 21st, Lavelle came to the world 

Followed by three more boys and then a baby girl 

Momma loved me, T.T. uncle Jay 

Loves you to death won't let no trouble come your way 

Oh, can't forget my man down in Maryland 

He's gone 'til November, how can I not remember? 

Tell your moms I'm there for her and Tiembra 

And your son too, there's nothin' I won't do 

Unless you was me, how could you judge me? 

I was brought up in pain, y'all can't touch me 

Police pursued me, chased cuffed and subdued me 

Talked to me rudely, 'cause I'm young rich and I'm black 

And live in a movie, not livin' by rules 

New rap patrollin' the city, follow my crews 

Bleek you're still with me, nigga what did I say? 

The time is comin' you one hit away 

Beans I ain't tryin' to change you 

Just give you some game to make the transition 

From the street to the fame, my momma loves me
