No Hook - JAY-Z

...

Most important thing in business is honesty, integrity

Hard work, family

Never forgetting where we came from

Poor me, dad was gone, finally got my dad back

Liver bad, he wouldn't live long, they snatched my dad back

Guidance? I never had that, streets was my second home

Welcomed me with open arms provided a place to crash at

A place to study math at, matter of fact, I learned it all

Burned it all, this music is where I bury the ashes at
