The second verse of 99 Problems is ingenious. Though I dislike the majority of themes in his music, Jay-Z is truly clever and a great lyricist. The wit and style with which he tells the narrative is amazing.

I personally think 99 problems, and if u dont like his lyrics u can press fast forwards:
If your havin girl problems i feel bad for you son
I got 99 problems but a ***** ain't one
[Verse One]
I got the rap patrol on the gat patrol
Foes that wanna make sure my casket's closed
Rap critics that say he's "Money Cash Hoes"
I'm from the hood stupid what type of facts are those
If you grew up with holes in your zapitos
You'd celebrate the minute you was havin doe
I'm like **** critics you can kiss my whole asshole
If you don't like my lyrics you can press fast forward
Got beef with radio if i don't play they show
They don't play my hits well i don't give a **** SO
Rap mags try and use my black ***
So advertisers can give em more cash for ads...*******
I don't know what you take me as
or understand the intellegence that Jay-Z has
I'm from rags to ritches ***** i ain't dumb
I got 99 problems but a ***** ain't one
Hit me
[Chorus]
99 Problems but a ***** ain't one
If you havin girl problems i feel bad for you son
I got 99 problems but a ***** ain't one
Hit me
[Verse Two]
The year is '94 and in my trunk is raw
In my rear view mirror is the mother ****** law
I got two choices yall pull over the car or
Bounce on the devil put the pedal to the floor
Now i ain't tryin to see no highway chase with jake
Plus i got a few dollars i can fight the case
So i...pull over to the side of the road
And i heard "Son do you know why i'm stoppin you for?"
Cause i'm young and i'm black and my hats real low
Do i look like a mind reader sir, i don't know
Am i under arrest or should i guess some mo?
"Well you was doin fifty five in a fifty four"
"Liscense and regestration and step out of the car"
"Are you carryin a weapon on you i know alot of you are"
I ain't steppin out of **** all my papers legit
"Do you mind if i look round the car a little bit?"
Well my glove compartment is locked so is the trunk and the back
And i know my rights so you gon' need a warrent for that
"Aren't you sharp as a tack are some type of lawyer or something?"
"Or somebody important or somethin?"
Nah i ain't pass the bar but i know a little bit
Enough that you won't illegally search my ****
"Well see how smart you are when the K-9's come"
I got 99 problems but a ***** ain't one
Hit me
[Chorus X2]
[Verse Three]
Now once upon a time not too long ago
A ***** like myself had to strong arm a hoe
This is not a hoe in the sense of havin a pussy
But a pussy havin no God Damn sense, try and push me
I tried to ignore him and talk to the Lord
Pray for him, cause some fools just love to perform
You know the type loud as a motor bike
But wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight
The only thing that's gonna happen is i'mma get to clappin
He and his boys gon be yappin to the captain
And there i go traped in the kit kat again
Back through the system with the riff raff again
Fiends on the floor scratchin again
Paparatzi's with they cameras snappin them
D.A. tred to give the ***** the shaft again
Half-a-mil for bail cause i'm African
All because ths fool was horrasin them
Tryin to play the boy like hes saccarin
But ain't nothin sweet 'bout how i hold my gun
I got 99 problems but this ***** ain't one
Hit me
[Chorus X3]
You're crazy for this one Rick
It's your boy

"Wishing on the star"
Ch-Check it out......Artist: Jay-Z f/ Gwen Dickey
Album: Wishing on a Star (Import Single)
Song: Wishing on a Star
Typed by: agent_frog@hotmail.com, I3omb1st@aol.com
[Chorus: Gwen Dickey]
I'm wishing on a star to follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream to follow what it means
[Jay-Z]
Uh huh-uh-huh, yea
Jigga
Trackmasters, yea
Ride
Take it back, let's take it back, uh-huh
[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
Check, you can catch me on top now (top down), playin a club
Throwin a shot down, tryin to stay above
Ground, another ground-breakin day in the club
Surrounded by my own thoughts, playin a cut
Reminiscin' on days I ain't have a pot to piss in
No watches to glisten, no V's with hot systems
Missin my homies that passed right in front of my eyes
Due to the fast life we told wonderful lies
On how we would live forever, time proved us wrong
Had to get ourselves together and move it along
Had dreams of being Big ******, Jig ******
Drivin the hottest cars, movin out with our moms and I'm
[Chorus: Gwen Dickey]
Wishing on a star to follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream to follow what it means
[Verse 2: Jay-Z]
Was interrupted by this chicken that I used to cluck wit
Back in the days when I was movin much ****, "What up chick?"
Maintainin, it's the same old thang
A little stress, a little bullshit, ain't too much changed
I see you kept it movin, you see I kept improving
She nodded her head in agreement
Remember when I used to walk up and down the cement, puttin it down
Knew the +Streets+ was +Watchin+, stay hooded down
Just to earn a rep, but what good is it now?
She said "Damn I just stopped to say Hi.... Bye"
I was too deep for you from day one
Thats why we never had relations, continued in my own zone
[Chorus: Gwen Dickey]
I'm wishing on a star to follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream to follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow praying it will come
And I'm wishing on all the loving we've ever done
[Verse 3: Jay-Z]
We used to play tap-tap for rap tracks
Run, catch, and kiss in the back park until it got dark
Wanted to be like the older males, sneak and drink old champ-ale
Dangerous games we played on the third rail
Fiend for the summer breeze
Hopped out the Lee's Dungarees
Into the Hawaiian shorts, relying on sports
To take us away from here, but I cut too much
So I had a plan B used to rhyme with a brush
In the mirror
My sinners used to back me up
Like Doug E. Fresh and Ricky D., Eric, Mickey and Me
All my ****** is you with me, each of ya'll
Let's reach for the stars now... Jigga!
[Chorus: Gwen Dickey]
I'm wishing on a star to follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream to follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow praying it will come
And I'm wishing on all the loving we've ever done
