JAY-Z
The Story of O.J.
[Intro: Nina Simone]
Skin is, skin is
Skin black, my skin is black
My, black, my skin is yellow

[Chorus]
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a
I like that second one
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a

[Interlude]
O.J. like, "I'm not black, I'm O.J.," okay

[Verse 1]
House n***a, don't fuck with me
I'm a field n***a, with shined cutlery
Gold-plated quarters, where the butlers be
I'ma play the corners where the hustlers be
I told him, "Please don't die over the neighborhood
That your mama rentin'
Take your drug money and buy the neighborhood
That's how you rinse it"
I bought every V12 engine
Wish I could take it back to the beginnin'
I coulda bought a place in DUMBO before it was DUMBO
For like 2 million
That same building today is worth 25 million
Guess how I'm feelin'? Dumbo
[Chorus]
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a

[Interlude]
You wanna know what's more important than throwin' away money at a strip club? Credit
You ever wonder why Jewish people own all the property in America? This how they did it

[Verse 2]
Financial freedom my only hope
Fuck livin' rich and dyin' broke
I bought some artwork for one million
Two years later, that shit worth two million
Few years later, that shit worth eight million
I can't wait to give this shit to my children
Y'all think it's bougie, I'm like, it's fine
But I'm tryin' to give you a million dollars worth of game for $9.99
I turned that 2 to a 4, 4 to an 8
I turned my life into a nice first week release date
Y'all out here still takin' advances, huh?
Me and my n***as takin' real chances, uh
Y'all on the 'Gram holdin' money to your ear
There's a disconnect, we don't call that money over here, yeah
[Chorus]
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a
Light n***a, dark n***a, faux n***a, real n***a
Rich n***a, poor n***a, house n***a, field n***a
Still n***a, still n***a
