Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
Jay-Z – Glory Lyrics (feat. Blue Ivy Carter)
The most amazing feeling I feel,
Words can’t describe what I’m feeling for real
Baby, I paint the sky blue,
My greatest creation was you
You, you, glory
False alarms and false starts
All made better by the sound of your heart
All the pain of the last time
I prayed so hard it was the last time
Your mama said you danced for her
Did you wiggle your hands for her?
Glory, Glory, Glory
Sorry, Everything that I prayed for
God’s gift I wish I woulda prayed more
God makes no mistakes, I made a few
Rough sled in here and there but I made it through
I wreak havoc on the world
Get ready for part two
A younger, smarter, faster me
So a pinch of Hov, a whole glass of B
Glory, yeah
The most amazing feeling I feel,
Words can’t describe what I’m feeling for real
Baby, I paint the sky blue,
My greatest creation was you
Your grand pop died of liquor failure
Then he died of liver failure
Deep down he was a good man
God damn I can’t deliver failure
Bad ass little Hov,
Two years old shopping on Saville Row
Wicked ass little Bey, hard not to spoil you rotten, looking like little me
The most beautiful-est thing in this world,
Is Daddy’s little girl.
You don’t yet know what swag is
But you was made in Paris and mama woke up the next day and shot her album package
Last time the miscarriage was so tragic,
We was afraid you disappeared but nah baby, you magic
So there you have it, sh-t happens
Just make sure the plane you on is bigger than your carry-on baggage
Everybody goes through stuff
Life is a gift, love
Open it up
You’re a child of destiny
You’re the child of my destiny
You’re my child with the child from destiny’s child
That’s a hell of recipe
Glory, glory, glory sorry
Glory, uh, yeah
The most amazing feeling I feel,
Words can’t describe what I’m feeling for real
Baby, I paint the sky blue,
My greatest creation was you

Re: Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
I posted this on Steve Hoffman forum and got called an "old white guy", was accused of a thinly veiled attack aginst one of the most successful artists of our time and was asked if I would have posted this if Van Morrison wrote it. I guess dumbass lyrics are cool with the politically correct crowd over there as long as they're from an "urban" artist.

I got 99 problems, but none as bad as that song.

Wow, that is terrible. Even worse coming on the heels of a pretty decent effort with Kanye. He sounded revitalized on that album.

Rims
Cars
Money (living it up)
Gold chains
Ho's
Hard times in the past
Pimping
Dealing
Clubbing

Funny how there are so many songs about so few subjects.

Re: Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
But the big question, did he close the entire floor, confiscate all cell phones and spend $1.3M while writing the song. C'mon, inquiring minds want the gossip!

Re: Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
Probably. He co-wrote it with Beyonce while the mother of their child was giving birth (if you are to believe the rumors that Beyonce was never pregnant and their child was born through a surrogate).

The song:

And randomly, an MC Hammer track dissing Jay-Z. It's not a response to this Jay-Z track, but it's fun to pretend it is.

Jay-Z has never been known as a master words man, has he? He's been known to bite other rappers lyrics for years. He's had a lot of ghostwriters, too.
This song was awful, but it just showcases his true songwriting abilities.

Re: Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
Am I the only person who thinks jay-z is a terrible rapper? I like rap, but he leaves me cold. Calculated commercial beats and no real flow. I think I'm gong to get really sick hearing about this kid, too. So his dick works, big deal.

Re: Jay Z lyrics to new song about his daughter
Jay isn't a terrible rapper but I have never thought of him as someone who stood out from the rest. I like his music and think he is very talented but his style doesn't distinguish himself from other great rappers IMO.
