History
Jay-Z; Tony Williams Lyrics

Now that all the smoke is gone
After all the hardships and obstacles, the way is clear for the next step.

And the battle's finally won
After struggling through the difficulties, the desired outcome has been achieved.

Victory (Lighters up) is finally ours
Success has been achieved, and it's time to celebrate.

History so long so long
The journey leading to success has been a long one, and it's worth reflecting on.

In search of victory she keeps eluding me
Despite working hard to achieve success, it continues to be elusive.

If only we could be together momentarily
The desire to achieve success is so strong that just a brief moment with it would be satisfying.

We can make love and make history
Achieving success would be as intimate and thrilling as making love.

Why won't you visit me? Until she visit me
Success seems so far away that it's like a distant visitor who might never arrive.

I'll be stuck with her sister her name is defeat
Until success is achieved, defeat will continue to be the unwanted companion.

She gives me agony, so much agony
Failures and setbacks cause a great deal of pain and suffering.

She brings me so much pain so much misery
Rejection and failure hurt and impact morale negatively.

Like missing your last shot and falling to your knees
Failing at achieving success is as painful as losing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

As the crowd screams for the other team
Witnessing others' success while failing feels like being on the wrong side of the competition amid all the celebratory crowds.

I practice so hard for this moment victory don't leave
Even after hard work and practice, it is still important not to lose sight of the goal.

I know what this means I'm stuck in this routine
The persistent state of trying to achieve success can become routine with time.

Whole new different day same old thing
Despite the monotony of the routine, one must continue to work hard each day for the goal of success.

All I got is dreams nobody else can see
The goal of success is a personal dream and vision that is unique to the individual.

Nobody else believes, nobody else but me
The journey towards success is not always well-received by others, making it a lonely path.

Where are you victory? I need you desperately
In the pursuit of success, the desired outcome can end up feeling like it's nowhere to be found.

Not just for the moment to make history
It's essential to remember that success is not just for the moment, but for the lasting legacy it creates.

Now victory is mine it tastes so sweet
After a long journey, achieving success is a fulfilling and satisfying experience.

She's my trophy wife you're coming with me
Success is so important that it can be likened to a desirable spouse being taken with pride.

We'll have a baby who stutters repeatedly
The offspring of success (impact or legacy) may not be perfect and could even be vulnerable to challenges.

We'll name him History he'll repeat after me
The legacy of success is so important that it deserves to be passed down from one generation to the next and repeated.

He's my legacy son of my hard work
The offspring of success (impact or legacy) is the result of years of hard work.

Future of my past he'll explain who I be
The future looks promising and hopeful because it will be built on what has been achieved in the past.

Rank me amongst the greats either 1 2 or 3
Achieving success is excellent, and being ranked among the best in the field is an added advantage.

If I ain't number one then I failed you victory
For some people, anything less than being ranked number one in their field is considered a failure.

Ain't in it for the fame that dies within weeks
The goal of success should not be to achieve temporary fame that fades away quickly.

Ain't in it for the money can't take it when you leave
Monetary riches should not be the primary goal of success, as money cannot be taken when one leaves this world.

I wanna be remembered long after you grieve
Success should be developed in such a way that it has a lasting impact even after the individual has passed away.

Long after I'm gone long after I breathe
The impact of success should stretch beyond the existence of its achiever.

I leave all I am in the hands of history
The legacy one leaves behind depends on the quality of success achieved and is therefore history's responsibility.

That's my last will and testimony
This is an individual's testimony to what they wish to be remembered for, their lasting legacy.

This is much more than a song it's a baby shower
This song is not just a piece of music; it's an important and meaningful event.

I've been waiting for this hour history you ours
The achievement of success is so vital that it feels like a joyful and long-awaited moment, celebrating it as history's most significant achievement.
