Crazy In Love
baby b ft jay Lyrics

Yes
Affirmative response to an unspoken request to proceed with the performance of the song

It's so crazy right now
Current situation is overwhelmingly intense or chaotic

Most incredibly, it's ya girl, B
The subject of the song is Beyonce Knowles

It's ya boy, young
The subject of the song is Jay-Z

You ready?
A question posed to the listener, asking if they are ready for the upcoming performance

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh, no, no
An exclamation expressing a warning or concern

Yeah, history in the making
Acknowledging the significance of the current moment in time

Part two, it's so crazy right now
This is a continuation of a previous event or performance and is equally intense or chaotic

I look and stare so deep in your eyes
The singer is making prolonged eye contact with their subject

I touch on you more and more every time
The singer is becoming progressively more physical with their subject

When you leave, I'm begging you not to go
The singer does not want their subject to leave and is pleading for them to stay

Call your name two or three times in a row

Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
The singer realizes the complexity of their emotions and finds them difficult to articulate

How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
The singer's pride prevents them from expressing their emotions and is the cause of their internal conflict

'Cause I know I don't understand
The singer is aware of their confusion regarding their emotions

Just how your love can do what no one else can
The singer recognizes the unique and powerful effect that their subject's love has on them

Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's

Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss

Looking so crazy in love's

When I talk to my friends so quietly
The singer speaks to their friends in a hushed manner

Who he think he is? Look at what you did to me
The singer's friends question the character of their subject and express concern for the singer's emotional state

Tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress

If you ain't there, ain't nobody else to impress
The singer's subject is the only person whose opinion matters to them

It's the way that you know what I thought I knew
The singer has learned something new about themselves or their emotions through their relationship with their subject

It's the beat my heart skips when I'm with you

But I still don't understand
Despite their emotional experiences, the singer's confusion persists

I been iller than chain smokers
Jay-Z is more talented and popular than a group of people who smoke heavily and frequently

How you think I got the name Hova?
