JAY-Z Lyrics

Let's do this for these babies
Let's make this happen for our future generations

Mercedes truck, fuck, houses on acres
I have achieved wealth and success to live in luxury

Blatantly ballin' on HD
My success is obvious and evident

Y'all need to step up y'all AV
Others need to work harder to catch up to my level of success

Life changed again I was already taking off
My life has taken another turn towards success when I was already achieving great things

My flight changed again
My path to success has altered once again

Slight change of winds
The course of my life has been slightly altered

It's barely 12 noon and my wife changed again
My situation has changed yet again with my significant other

Baby need Pampers
I must attend to the basic needs of my child

Daddy need at least three weeks in the Hamptons
I need a break and time to relax

Please don't judge me, only hugged the block
Do not judge me by my past actions of being involved in a difficult environment

I thought my daddy didn't love me
I once believed that my father did not care for me

My baby getting chubby
My child is growing up healthily

Cue that Stevie Wonder music, aww isn't she lovely
This moment reminds me of the beautiful song 'Isn't She Lovely' by Stevie Wonder

Now I'm staring at praying that things don't get ugly
I am hoping that my situation does not turn bad

And I'm stuck in that old cycle like wife leaves hubby
I am experiencing the difficult cycle of marital problems

Fuck joint custody
I dislike the arrangement of sharing custody with my ex-partner

I need a joint right now
I need to smoke marijuana to relax

Just the thought alone fucks with me
The mere idea of this situation is disturbing me

High on life
I am feeling euphoric from my success and accomplishments

I could die from the fall
I am aware that my success could be fleeting and can result in a downfall

Imagine if I hit the floor
If I fail or lose my success, it would be a major blow

Apologies in order
I must make apologies

To Blue Ivy my daughter
I owe an apology to my daughter Blue Ivy

If it was up to me
If it were within my control

You would be with me
I would want my daughter to be with me

Sort of like daddy dearest
Similar to how my father was a big part of my life

Father never taught me how to be a father, treat a mother
My own father did not teach me how to be a good father or partner

I don't wanna have to just repeat another leave another
I do not want to repeat the cycle of absent fathers

Baby with no daddy want no mama drama
Children without a father do not want any unnecessary drama from their mothers

I just wanna take her back to a time when everything was calmer
I want to provide a peaceful and stable environment for my child

Out in Paris on a terrace watching the Eiffel Tower
I dream of sharing a romantic moment with my partner in Paris

And a Ferris wheel yet and still, nothing could prepare us
Even something as simple as riding a Ferris wheel can be a memorable and magical experience

For the beauty that you be Blue be
I am in awe of the beauty and innocence of my daughter Blue Ivy

Looking in your eyes is like a mirror, have to face my fears
When I look at my daughter, I am faced with my own fears and vulnerabilities

Cheer up, why can't you just be happy
I want my loved ones to be happy and optimistic

Without these back and forth thoughts, you too much like your daddy
I do not want my child to have the same negative thoughts and behaviors I displayed in the past

Badly I just wanna spent more time with him
I deeply desire more time with my father

Sadly life wouldn't let me get around with him
Unfortunately, life did not allow me to spend more time with my father

Now I got my own daughter, taught her how to take her first steps
I am now a father to my own child and have taught her important milestones

Cut the cord watch her take her first breath
I was there for my child's first breath of life

And I'm trying and I'm lying if I said I wasn't scared
I am doing my best but still feel afraid and uncertain

But in life and death if I ain't here
Even if I am not present, my love for my daughter will remain
