Niggas In Paris
Jay Z and Kanye Lyrics

We're going to skate to one song and one song only
We have a specific goal in mind and we are going to focus on that goal

Ball so hard muh'fuckas wanna fine me
I am very successful and people want to penalize me for it

But first niggas gotta find me
I am so successful and powerful that people struggle to locate me

What's fifty grand to a muh'fucka like me Can you please remind me?
I have so much money that even large sums like $50,000 don't mean much to me anymore

Ball so hard, this shit crazy
My success and lifestyle are insane

Y'all don't know that don't shit phase me
I am unfazed by any obstacles because I am so successful

The Nets could go oh for eighty-two and I look at you like this shit gravy
Even if my basketball team fails to win a single game, I am still successful and wealthy

Ball so hard, this shit weird
My lifestyle and success are so unusual and unconventional

We ain't even 'pose to be here
Our level of success and wealth is unexpected and improbable

Ball so hard, since we here It's only right that we be fair
Now that we have achieved success and wealth, it's important that we use our power to help others

Psycho, I'm liable to be go Michael Take your pick, Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6
I am so successful and powerful that I could be compared to any of these legendary figures

Ball so hard, got a broke clock, Rollies that don't tick tock Audemars that's losing time, hidden behind all these big rocks
Even with expensive watches, time is still fleeting and we should cherish every moment

Ball so hard, I'm shocked too, I'm supposed to be locked up too You escaped what I've escaped You'd be in Paris getting fucked up too
My success and wealth are so incredible that even I am surprised that I am not in jail or worse

Ball so hard, let's get faded, Le Meurice for like six days Gold bottles, scold models, spillin' Ace on my sick J's
Let's indulge in our success and wealth by taking a luxurious vacation in Paris

(Ball so hard) bitch behave, just might let you meet 'Ye Chi town's D. Rose, I'm movin' the Nets to BK
If you are well-behaved, I might introduce you to my friend Kanye West who is from Chicago, and I am moving my basketball team to Brooklyn

That shit cray
That situation is insane or crazy

She said 'Ye can we get married at the mall? I said look you need to crawl 'fore you ball Come and meet me in the bathroom stall And show me why you deserve to have it all
My partner wants to get married in a shopping center, but I am telling her she needs to prove herself and earn her success before we make that commitment

(Ball so hard) that shit cray, (that shit cray) ain't it Jay?
That situation is insane or crazy, right Jay?

(Ball so hard) what she order? (What she order?) Fish fillet (Ball so hard) your whip so cold (whip so cold) this old thing (Ball so hard) act like you'll ever be around motherfuckas like this again
I am showing off my wealth and success by ordering a McDonald's fish sandwich and driving an old car, while reminding people that they may never have an opportunity to be around successful people like us again

Bougie girl, grab her hand Fuck that bitch she don't wanna dance
I am criticizing a girl who thinks she is better than others and won't interact or dance with people she deems beneath her

Excuse my French but I'm in France (I'm just sayin') Prince William's ain't do it right if you ask me 'Cause I was him, I would have married Kate and Ashley
I am in France and making a joke about Prince William's marriage, suggesting that he should have married the Olsen Twins because they are wealthy and successful

What's Gucci my nigga? What's Louie my killa? What's drugs my deala? What's that jacket, Margiela?
I am asking what brand names or drugs people are using or selling, and also pointing out a specific jacket brand

Doctors say I'm the illest 'Cause I'm suffering from realness Got my niggas in Paris And they going gorillas, huh!?
Doctors would describe me as the best because I am so genuine and authentic. And my friends who are with me in Paris are having a great time and getting wild

(I don't even know what that means) (No one knows what it means, but it's provocative) (No it's not) (It gets the people going!)
We are saying something that is confusing or nonsensical, but it still grabs people's attention and gets them excited

You are now watching the throne Don't let me get in my zone Don't let me get in my zone Don't let me get in my zone These other niggas is lyin' Actin' like the summer ain't mine
I am reminding everyone that I am at the top of my game and no one can outdo me. Also, anyone else who claims to be successful is not telling the truth

I got that hot bitch in my home You know how many hot bitches I own? Don't let me get in my zone Don't let me get in my zone Don't let me get in my zone Don't let me get in my zone The stars is in the building They hands is to the ceiling I know I'm 'bout to kill it How you know? I got that feeling You are now watching the throne Don't let me into my zone Don't let me into my zone I'm definitely in my zone (Zone, zone, zone, zone, zone, zone, zone, zone)
I am boasting about my success and the number of attractive women who are interested in me. And right now, I am in the zone and ready to dominate. I am telling everyone to watch me in action and see for themselves how amazing I am
