Jay-Z Beach Chair (feat. Chris Martin)
(Jay Z)
Life is but a dream to me i dont wanna wake up
30 odd years without having my cake up
so i'm bout my pap-er
24/7, 365, 366 in the leap year
i dont know why we here
since we gotta be here
life is but a beach chair (chair,chair,chair)
went from having shabby clothes
to crossing over Abbey road
hear my angels singing to me (are you happy HOV)
i just hope im hearing right
karma's got me fearing life
Colleek are you praying for me
see i got demons in my past so i got daughters on the way
if the Prophecy's correct than the child shall have to pay
for the sins of the father
so i barter my tomorrows against my yesterdays
in hopes that she'll be O.K.
and when i'm no longer here
to shade her face from the glare
I'll give her my share of Carol's Daughter
and a new beach chair
(chorus)
(I can hear my angel sing)
Life is just a dream and you really don't wanna wake up, wake up
(I can hear my angel sing)
Life is just a dream and you really don't wanna lose
(I can hear my angel sing)
Life is just a dream and you really dont' wanna wake up, wake up
(I can hear my angel sing)
Life is just a dream and you really don't wanna lose
life is but a dream to me
gun shots sing to these
other guys but lullaby's don't mean a thing to me
I'm not afraid of dyin'
I'm afraid of not tryin'
everyday hit every wave like i'm Hawaiian
i don't surf the net
no i never been on my space
too busy letting my voice vibrate
carving out my space
in this world of fly girls
cut Throats in diamond cut ropes i twirls
Benz's round corners where the sun don't shine
i let the wheels give a glimpse of hope in ones grind
some said "Hov how you get so fly"
i said from not being afraid to fall out the sky
my physicals a shell so when i say farewell
my soul will find an even higher plane to dwell
so fly you shall so have no fear
just know that life is but a beach chair (chair, chair, chair)
(Chorus)
life is but a dream can't mimic my life
i'm the thinnest cut slice
inner cut the winners cup
where winters rough enough to interrupt life
thats why i'm both saint and sinner...nice
this is jay everyday no compromise
no compass comes with this life just eyes
so to map it out you must look inside
sure books can guide you but your heart defines you chica
your corazon is what brought us home
in great shape like Heidi Klum
Maricon, I am on
permanent vaca life is but a beach chair
songs like a hallmark card until you reach here
So til she's here
and she's declared
The heir
i will prepare
a blueprint for you to print a map for you to get back
a guide for your eyes just so you wont lose scenes
I'll make a stink for you to think i inked these verses
full of prose so you wont get conned out of 2 cents
my last will and testament i leave my heir
my share of roc-a-fella records and a shiny new beach chair
(chorus)
