What is some good Jay-Z wordplay?

Everyone always says he's the best at it. The only full album of his I've listened to is Black Album and I fucking love it but I didn't hear any wordplay.

I'm from the murder Capital, where we murder for capital

I jack, I rob I sin, aww man I'm Jackie Robinson, expect when I run base, I dodge the pen

We used to fight for building blocks, now we fight for blocks of buildings that make a killing
the closest of friends, grew apart as the money grew, soon grew black hearted

See, I got demons in my past, so I got daughters on the way If the prophecy's correct, then the child shall have to pay
For the sins of her father, so I barter my tomorrows against my yesterdays and hope that she'll be okay

Son said, "Hov, how you get so fly?" I said from not bein' afraid to fall out the sky
My physical's a shell, so when I say farewell, my soul'll find an even higher plain to dwell

In sheepskin coats, I silence the lambs

Never read the Qu'ran or Islamic scriptures
Only psalms I read was on the arms of my niggaz
Tattooed so I carry on like I'm non-religious
Clap whoever stand between Shawn and figures
Niggaz, say it's the dawn (Don) but I'm superstitious
Shit is as dark as it's been, nothin is goin as you predicted
I move with biscuits, stop the hearts of niggaz actin too suspicious
This is, food for thought, you do the dishes


Lock my body, can't rap my mind (one of my favourite quotes ever)

And listen to Lyrical Exercise, the whole track is full of wordplay
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
[/i

Domino.domino only spot a few 'blocks' the higher i go
I'm strong, my word is Bond like James
Niggaz be tryin to test, but they 'week' like seven days-Canibus

I don't belong here,my dad fucked my mom in the wrong year.-Budden
