“They’re all actors, lookin’ at themselves in the mirror backwards
Can’t even face themself, don’t fear no rappers
They’re all, weirdos, DeNiros in practice
So, don’t believe everything your earlobe captures
It’s mostly backwards, unless it happens to be as accurate as me

Then, actually, believe half of what you see
None of what you hear, even if it’s spat by me
And with that said, I will kill niggaz dead” —Jay-Z
