Hustlers, prophets, made our eyes stretch

from Jay-Z (Ft. John Legend) – Do U Wanna Ride Lyrics on Rap Genius

Meaning

Depending on what he actually said this could mean two things (I pick the second). 1. Expanding on his previous statement, Jay recalls seeing the hustlers and prophets behind the wheels (or in the back seat) of vehicles that had the two’s eyes stretching.The prophets line (If it is “hustlers, prophets) shows Jay’s attitude towards the supposed insincerity and scheme’s of some figures or practices in organized religions, such as his line in the second verse of "Blueprint 2” where he compares his Nas to mega-church pastor and international evangelist Bishop T.D. Jakes

(I mean…. I don’t quite see the resemblance but to each his own….)
He presents the two as phonies “uplifting the community.” This would be clever, but I’m pretty sure he meant profits

  1. He simply meant “Hustlers profits made..” which would mean either the cars (or other things) hustlers bought with their profits (or the profits themselves) amazed Jay and his cousin, to the point of hustling themselves as you see in the next line
