Jay-Z Blue

Album: Magna Carta Holy Grail (2013)
  • Let's do this for these babies
    Mercedes truck, fuck, houses on acres
    Blatantly ballin' on HD
    Y'all need to step up y'all AV
    Life changed again I was already taking off
    My flight changed again
    Slight change of winds
    It's barely 12 noon and my wife changed again
    Baby need Pampers
    Daddy need at least three weeks in the Hamptons
    Please don't judge me, only hugged the block
    I thought my daddy didn't love me
    My baby getting chubby
    Cue that Stevie Wonder music, aww isn't she lovely
    Now I'm staring at praying that things don't get ugly
    And I'm stuck in that old cycle like wife leaves hubby
    Fuck joint custody
    I need a joint right now
    Just the thought alone fucks with me

    High on life
    I could die from the fall
    Imagine if I hit the floor
    Apologies in order
    To Blue Ivy my daughter
    If it was up to me
    You would be with me
    Sort of like daddy dearest

    I dream filthy (my mom and pops) mixed me with Jamaican
    (Rum and whiskey) what a set off (what a set off)
    And I know I'm not perfect baby
    I been through so much trauma
    It gonna be hard to reverse it
    With some doctors and some nurses maybe
    Teach me on how to treat a lady
    Open doors on the 'Cedes
    This relationship shit is complicated
    All I know is we ain't speaking everyday
    I fucking hate it
    I don't wanna duplicate it
    I seen my mom and pop drive each other motherfuckin' crazy
    And I got that nigga blood in me
    I got his ego and his temper
    All is missing is the drugs in me

    High on life
    I could die from the fall
    Imagine if I hit the floor
    Apologies in order
    To Blue Ivy my daughter
    If it was up to me
    You would be with me
    Sort of like daddy dearest

    Father never taught me how to be a father, treat a mother
    I don't wanna have to just repeat another leave another
    Baby with no daddy want no mama drama
    I just wanna take her back to a time when everything was calmer
    Out in Paris on a terrace watching the Eiffel Tower
    And a Ferris wheel yet and still, nothing could prepare us
    For the beauty that you be Blue be
    Looking in your eyes is like a mirror, have to face my fears
    Cheer up, why can't you just be happy
    Without these back and forth thoughts, you too much like your daddy
    Badly I just wanna spent more time with him
    Sadly life wouldn't let me get around with him
    Now I got my own daughter, taught her how to take her first steps
    Cut the cord watch her take her first breath
    And I'm trying and I'm lying if I said I wasn't scared
    But in life and death if I ain't here

    Apologies in order
    To Blue Ivy my daughter
    If it was up to me
    You would be with me
    Sort of like daddy dearest Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
