Millenium flow
Serena Altschul"s here live outside the criminal courthouse
This is {bullshit} y"all
in New York City for the first day in the trial of
I"m gone {*car speeds off*}
the State vs. Shawn Carter, a.k.a. Jay-Z
Uhh, uh-huh-uh, uhh, uh-huh-uh, uhh
Whatever the verdict in this trial may be
the effects will undoubtedly be felt worldwide Aiyyo, stand forward, "fore you take notice
or witness to me killin the track
Testify "til me spillin the smack
Now they got me for traffickin, racketeerin, audio crack
{Hook:} They call me Dope Man, Dope Man
I try to tell em I"m where hope, floats man
Ghetto spokes-man
A broke man, approachin the bench with intent
to bury me under the cell, fingered me as the toast man
Evidence stemmin from ninety-six
They say the world ain"t recovered from his fix
While they was usin cut I was on some other shit
Gave it to you raw and they just discovered it
Now
