Say Hello Lyrics - American Gangster - Jay-z

It's that Rocafella music... 

Soulful... 

Say hello 

To the bad guy 

Hello 

They say I'm a bad guy 

I come from the bottom 

But now I'm mad fly 

Say Hello 

They say I'm a menace 

That's the picture they paint 

Hello 

They say a lot about me 

Let me yell ya what I ain't 

Hello 

They say I'm a bad guy 

Say Hi to the bad guy 

Hello 

I come from the bottom 

But now I'm mad fly 

They say I'm a menace 

That's the picture they paint 

They say a lot about me 

Let me tell ya what I ain't 

Say hello 

Hello 

Ay, ay, ay, ay 

They say a lot about me 

Let me tell you what I ain't

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

I ain't playing, 

Life's short, so I aimed 

I ain't waiting for life to start portrayin' em 

It's twice as hard to get a job that's paying 

So I ain't payin' attention to what you saying 

Rain-drops keep falling on my brain 

Constant in the drop, all flames 

I'm so hot even if the weather change 

I don't have no top, I'm insane 

Remember darkskinned Jermaine? 

Swayed in the rain, I'm sorta kinda the same 

Except I'm no lame and you gonna know my name 

Before I go to work and feel my pain 

Saying, I'm a bad guy, why's that? 

Cause when my back's against the wall, nigga, I react 

Secretly though, I know you admire that 

You wish you had the balls to fire back- 

Say hello, uh, uh, hello, uh. uh 

You wish you had the balls to fire back

Let me tell you what I ain't 

I ain't no ordinary nigga 

Look around and see what 'ordinary' gets ya 

Extraordinary figures 

I'm an extra-ordinary nigga 

Before my name became Jigga 

Before I sang, I had that thang on sippers 

Can't complain bout what they ain't gon' give ya 

That ain't gon' get you shit, mightaswell give up 

Or get up, get out and get something, nigga 

Get a job, my nigga, or get to dumping 

Only God can judge him, only he without sin 

Can tell me if my means can justify my ends 

Til' then, I'm just gon' fly in the benz 

Wire my friends through Western Union 

Sssshhhh... surprising my sister, knockin'

Hello 

Ay, ay,

Let me tell you what I ain't 

We ain't thugs for the sake of just being thugs 

Nobody do dat where we grew at, nigga, DUH! 

The poverty line, we not above 

So out come the mask and glove cause we ain't feelin' the love 

We ain't doing crime for the sake of doing crime 

We movin' dimes cause we ain't doin' fine 

One out of three of us is locked up doing time 

You know what that type of shit can do to a nigga mind? 

My mind on my money, money on my mind 

If you owe me ten dollars, you ain't giving me nine 

Ya'll ain't give me 40 acres and a mule 

So I got my Glock 40, now I'm cool 

And if Al Sharpton is speaking for me 

Somebody get him the word and tell him I don't approve 

Tell him I'll remove the curses 

If you tell me our schools gon' be perfect 

When Jena 6 don't exist 

Tell him THAT's when I'll stop saying bitch-BIIITCH!
