Otis
The Throne (Jay-Z and Kanye West) Lyrics

It makes it easier, easier to bear
Love makes life easier to bear.

You won't regret it, no, no
You won't regret loving her.

Some girls they don't forget it
Some girls never forget a true love.

Love is their own happiness, yeah
True happiness comes from love.

Sq-sq-sq-squeeze her (sounds so soulful don't you agree?)
Hold her tight and never let go.

Don't tease her
Don't play games with her heart.

Never leave her
Stay with her always.

I invented swag
I created an attitude of confidence and style.

Poppin' bottles, puttin' supermodels in the cab, proof
I celebrate life with expensive women and champagne.

I guess I got my swagger back, truth
I regained my confidence and style.

New watch alert, Hublot's
I bought a new expensive watch.

Or the big face Rollie I got two of those
Or I could wear one of my two Rolex watches.

Arm out the window through the city I maneuver slow
I drive slowly through the city with my arm out the window.

Cock back, snap back
I pull my hat back and take a confident stance.

See my cut through the holes
I let my expensive chain show through my clothing.

Damn Yeezy and Hov
Wow, Kanye and Jay-Z are amazing.

Where the hell ya been?
Where have you guys been?

Niggas talkin' real reckless, stuntmen
Other guys are talking nonsense and pretending to be something they're not.

I adopted these niggas, Phillip Drummond 'em
I took these guys under my wing and made them something great, like Phillip Drummond did for Arnold and Willis on the TV show 'Diff'rent Strokes.'

Now I'm bout to make them tuck they whole summer in
Now I'm going to make them hide and be ashamed all summer.

They say I'm crazy, well, I'm 'bout to go dumb again
They think I'm insane, but I'm about to do something amazing again.

They ain't see me 'cause I pulled up in my other Benz
They didn't see me because I arrived in my other expensive car.

Last week I was in my other other Benz
Last week I was driving another one of my expensive cars.

Throw your diamonds up 'cause we in this bitch another 'gain
Raise your hands and celebrate, because we're doing great again.

Photo shoot fresh, looking like wealth
I look rich and stylish like I'm in a magazine photo shoot.

I'm 'bout to call the paparazzi on myself
I'm so amazing, I'm going to call the photographers to take my picture.

Uh, live from the Mercer
I'm broadcasting live from the Mercer hotel.

Run up on Yeezy the wrong way, I might murk ya
If you approach Kanye the wrong way, he might hurt you.

Flee in the G450 I might surface
I might escape in my private jet if necessary.

Political refugee, asylum can be purchased
I can buy my way out of any trouble and move to another country if needed.

Uh, everything's for sale, I got five passports
I can buy anything, even new identities with multiple passports.

I'm never going to jail
I'll never be held accountable for any crimes.

I made "Jesus Walks" I'm never going to Hell
I made a song about Jesus, so I'll never be punished in the afterlife.

Couture level flow, it's never going on sale
My style is so rare and expensive, it will never be available to the masses.

Luxury rap, the Hermes of verses
My music is like a Hermes scarf, luxurious and highly sought after.

Sophisticated ignorance, write my curses in cursive
I use elegant writing to express vulgar language.

I get it custom, you a customer
I create my own style, while you just buy what's popular.

You ain't customed to going through customs
You're not used to the customs process when traveling outside your own country.

You ain't been nowhere, huh?
You haven't traveled much, have you?

And all the ladies in the house, got 'em showing off
I have all the women in the building flirting and competing for my attention.

I'm done, I hit ya up mañana
I'm finished, I'll talk to you tomorrow.

Welcome to Havana
Let's go to Havana, Cuba.

Smoking Cubanos with Castro in cabanas
I'm smoking expensive Cuban cigars with Fidel Castro in a cozy cottage by the sea.

Viva Mexico, Cubano
Long live Mexico and Cuba.

Dominicano, all the plugs that I know
My contacts and associates are from the Dominican Republic.

Driving Benzes, with' no benefits
We're driving expensive cars, but not seeing any real benefits or improvements in our lives.

Not bad huh? For some immigrants
We're doing pretty well, considering we started out as immigrants.

Build your fences, we diggin' tunnels
You can try to keep us out, but we'll just find a way in another way.

Can't you see? We gettin' money up under you
Don't you see? We're making money right under your nose.

Can't you see the private jets flyin' over you?
Can't you see how impressive we are? Even our private planes are flying over you.

Maybach bumper sticker read "What would Hova do?"
Hova (Jay-Z) is so influential and impressive, people put his name on their cars as if he were a religious figure.

Jay is chillin', 'Ye is chillin'
Jay-Z and Kanye West are both relaxed and comfortable.

What more can I say? We killin' 'em
What else can I say? We're dominating and succeeding at everything we do.

Hold up, before we end this campaign
Before we finish what we're doing here.

As you can see, we done bodied the damn lames
As you can see, we've defeated all our opponents.

Lord, please let them accept the things they can't change
God, please help our enemies accept their failures and limitations.

And pray that all of their pain be champagne
And may their hardships and struggles somehow turn into something positive and celebratory, like champagne.
