"my president is black in fact he's half white
so even in the racist mind he's half right
so if you have a racist mind its alright
my president is black, but his house is all white

Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther could walk
Martin Luther walked so Barak Obama could run
Barak Obama ran so all the children could fly
so ima spread my wings you could meet me in the sky

I already got my own clothes
already got my own shoes
i was hot before Barak
imagine what im gone do

Hello Ms. America!
hey, pretty lady
red, white, and blue
flag wave for me baby
never thought i'd say this sh*t
baby im good
you could keep your puss
i dont want no more bush

no more war, no more iraq
no more white lies
my president is black"



the entire south, all yall rhymes and freestyles and albums combined - are not as witty, lyrical, or skillful as this one verse. period.

Sure is.

I've seen it at the markets, people selling the bootleg "Yes We Can" Obama shirts have them for sale as bumper stickers and on buttons.

Jeezy verse on the original was better than that shyt n!gganot at all homie. At least Jay knows when to not make drug references in his songs. How you start of a song about the president with

Today was a good day, hope I have me a great night
I don't know what you fishin for but catch you a great white
Me, I see great white, heavy as killer whales
I cannot believe this, who knew it came in bails

I thought that at first, then I figured that Jezzy might be more deep as he's pointing out "Look how far we've come", My prez is black, im pushing a car that I could never have dreamed off, real uplifting song for black people, but then.......

He throws in a lot of drug references which sets the whole tone back.

no no.... .jay came up with that.. maybe hsi most important lines EVER.. historical lines..

but the verse in it's entirety is really... sub par... the flow is amazing.. those lines are amazing.. the rest .. a child could come up with.

but the verse in it's entirety is really... sub par... the flow is amazing.. those lines are amazing.. the rest .. a child could come up with.what flow? everytime he spit 2-3 lines the crowd erupted and he had to start over. he eventually spit the verse acapella. the only time he rhymed with the music was on the hook and he used jeezy's flow then. youre a complete idiot when it comes to this rap sh1t.

from my understanding...jeezy feels good overall about his president being black...everything else in that chorus is just a bonus?

actually that isn't biting,..that is finally jay displaying great lyricism, and encompassing material from outside of the rap world, that permeates the general aesthetic.

biting is lifting another emcee or rapper's material,..then posing it off as your own. even if you gave props.

this is similar to sampling,..in the regard that jay used those lines.

perfectly legal, and showcases the brilliance of jayz.

imo...ll's president record is much better, wholeheartedly on all levels.

while the jeezy/nas collab on my prez is black is the most entertaining, from a gateway standpoint.

...yet jay's performance still should garner note as well.

The first part is just a list of things he's proud of, and the second part are things that are still fcuked up dispite the first things.

if you search around for the "Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther could walk" quote you see its attributed to Jay-Z

No Stanly,
