the way I took that line was he said 9-11 like it was a math problem 9 minus 11, yeah he is talking about his car but it also can be written out as 9-11. So he plays around and says he only subtracts the roof.................... clever

Thats a reach my dude. But even still, Jay is the GOAT.

I don't get why he posted that kevin federline crap either
but
i think this one is a double
hes refering to the heroin having less "steps" than brittney spears does as a dancer on stage.
his heroin is pure, or at least the best on the streets.

Of course the obvious metaphor is in relation to Spears being a dancer/ herion purity...
But I guess I reached with the fact that Federline had kids before he married Brittany Spears, which would make them stepchildren... or 'steps'
I never really thought the rehab thing was an issue, so I guess it was a reach just like the one I posted...
Anyways...

Not a double entendre but I'll leave this here because I never knew what this line/metaphor fully meant for the longest time. From Renegade:
"Do not step to me—I’m awkward, I box lefty"
Jay (who's left-handed) from Decoded: "Southpaw boxers are dangerous because they seem awkward to people used to boxing righthanders. It’s a great metaphor for the way those of us from the hood were able to take on the world. We came at *%!* from a different angle, snuck up on people, surprised them. We turned the thing that made us outcasts into our advantage."
Just makes me appreciate his verses in that song more.

There's no clever word play there. Just a story from his life apparently. Can't recall if it was that ron or crack but Jay tells a real story about losing 92 bricks but having to use his credibility and hustle for several nights straight to make up for the loss. His dude Ty-ty says he shouldn't have rapped that line, about discretion with the game and all, but its one of his realest i think

when this video dropped the MTV crowd said Beyonce was fat and out of shape
they would say "you aint ready for my [belly]"
this dropped in 2001

we all know this "unreleased" track leaked a few months later

He never learned so in turn I'm kidnapping his baby's mother
My hand around her collar, feeding her cheese
She said the taste of dollars was @+%#$@ so I fed her fifties
About his whereabouts I wasn't convinced
So I kept feeding her money 'til her #*%# started to make sense
