Stand inert,
look to golden shores
See the skyline - corroding
Thick with grease from the palms of those who are schooled in charm
Use their weight as a lever,
then use the cleaver.
Just in case, don't resist, hope they miss
Always taking more than giving
Always taking more than giving
Always taking more than giving
Spreading far,
to the farthest shore
Moving slowly, unimpeded
Wake up to the fact that the dirt spreads farther then before
It clings to the coast line,
the stakes are rising
From minute, to minute , to minute
Take your grievance to the summit
Take your grievance to the summit
Get shot down on the tarmac
The bubble bursts,
there's burning plastic
Obscuring the skyline
How many ways does the same message need to be sent?
The sands are shifting, the veil's lifted. Impetus will push us, don't give up
And stop the wheels from turning
And stop the wheels from turning
And stop the wheels from turning

The Blueprint è il sesto album in studio del rapper statunitense Jay-Z, pubblicato il 11 settembre 2001 dalla Roc-A-Fella Records e dalla Def Jam Entertainment. Considerato uno dei suoi lavori più influenti, l'album ha segnato un punto di svolta nella carriera dell'artista, introducendo un sound più maturo e introspettivo.

Tra i brani più celebri dell'album figurano "Izzo (H.O.V.A.)", "Girls, Girls, Girls" e "Moment of Clarity". The Blueprint ha riscosso un enorme successo commerciale, raggiungendo la posizione numero cinque nella Billboard 200 e vendendo oltre 3 milioni di copie negli Stati Uniti.
