Jay-Z And Linkin Park Points Of Authority/99 Problemone/One Step Closer Lyrics

If you're havin' girl problems I feel bad for you son
I got 99 problems but a b____ ain't one

i got the rap patrol on the gat patrol
Foes that want to make sure his 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 zapatos
You'd celebrate the minute you was havin? dough
im like 'f___ critics' you can kiss my whole a__hole
Got beef with radio if I don't play they show
They don't play our hits; well, we don't give a s___...so
Rap mags try and use my black a__
So advertisers can give 'em more cash for ads...f___ers
I don't know what you take me as
Or understand the intellegence that Jay-Z has
im from rags to riches, n____s, i ain't dumb
iv got 99 problems but a b____ ain't one
Hit me

everything you say to me
takes me one step closer to the edge
and im about to break
yup
i need a little room to breath
coz im one step closer to the edge
and im about to..

Year's '94 and my trunk is raw
In my rearview mirror is the m_________in' law
I got two choices y'all: pull over the car or, hmm,
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 could fight the case
So I...pull over to the side of the road
I heard "Son, do you know wat I'm stoppin' you for?"
Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hat's real low
Or do I look like a mindreader, 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", uh huh
"License and registration please step out the car step out of the car
"Are you carryin' a weapon on you, I know alot of you are"
I ain't steppin' out of s___; all my papers legit
"Well do you mind if I look around 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 gona' need a warrant for that
"Aren't you sharp as a tack? You some type of lawyer or somethin'?
"Somebody important or somethin'?"
Child, I ain't passed the bar, but I know a little bit
Enough that you won't illegally search my s___
"Well we'll see how smart you are when the K-9 come"
I got 99 problems but a b____ ain't one
Hit me

everything you say to me
i got 99 problems but a b____ aint 1
i'm about to break
i need a little room to breath
i got 99 problems but a b____ aint 1
im about to break
everything you say to me
i got 99 problems but a b____ aint 1
i'm about to break
i need a little room to breath
i got 99 problems but a b____ aint 1
im about to break
hit me

Now once upon a time not too long ago
A n____ like myself had to strongarm a ho
This is not a ho in the sense of havin' a p____
But a p____ havin' no g______ sense, try and push me
I tried to ignore 'em, talk to the Lord
Pray for 'em, cause some fools just love to perform
You know the type, loud as a motorbike
But wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight
The only thing that's gon, happen is I'ma get to clappin' and
He and his boys gon, be yappin' to the captain
And there I go trapped in the kit kat again
Back through the system with the riff raff again
Fiends on the floor scratchin' again
Paparazzi's with they cameras, snappin' them
D.A. tried to give a n____ shaft again
Half a mil for bail cause I'm African
All because this fool was harassin' them
Tryin' to play the boy like he's saccharine
But ain't nothin' sweet 'bout how I hold my gun
I got 99 problems, bein' a b____ ain't one
Hit me

Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up (2x)

Everything You Say To Me
99 Problems But A b____ Aint One
I Need A Little Room To Breathe
99 Problems But A b____ Aint One (x2)
And I'm About To... BREAK!
