The Notorious B.I.G. - Jay Z Blue lyrics

[Intro] “I work and work 'til I'm half-dead and I hear people saying "She's getting old," and what do I get? A daughter Who cares as much about the beautiful dresses I give her As she cares about ME!” [Verse 1] Let's do this for these babies Mercedes truck, f**, houses on acres Blatantly ballin' on HD Y'all need to step up y'all AV Life changed again I was already taking off My flight changed again Slight change of winds It's barely 12 noon and my wife changed again Baby need Pampers Daddy need at least three weeks in the Hamptons Please don't judge me, only hugged the block I thought my daddy didn't love me My baby getting chubby Cue that Stevie Wonder music, aww, isn't she lovely? Now I'm staring at praying that things don't get ugly And I'm stuck in that old cycle like wife leaves hubby f** joint custody, I need a joint right now Just the thought alone f**s with me [Hook] High on life I could die from the fall, imagine if I hit the floor Apologies in order to Blue Ivy my daughter If it was up to me, you would be with me, sort of like daddy dearest [Interlude] "Don't f** with me fellas. This ain't my first time at the rodeo." [Verse 2] I dream filthy (My mom and pops) Mixed me with Jamaican (Rum and whiskey, what a set off) And I know I'm not perfect baby I been through so much trauma, it gonna be hard to reverse it With some doctors and some nurses maybe Teach me on how to treat a lady, open doors on the 'Cedes This relationship sh** is complicated All I know if we ain't speaking everyday, I f**ing hate it I don't wanna duplicate it I seen my mom and pop drive each other mothaf**in' crazy And I got that n***a blood in me I got his ego and his temper, all is missing is the d** in me [Hook] High on life I could die from the fall, imagine if I hit the floor Apologies in order to Blue Ivy my daughter If it was up to me, you would be with me, sort of like daddy dearest [Interlude] "No... wire... hangers... EVER!" [Verse 3] Father never taught me how to be a father, treat a mother I don't wanna have to just repeat another leave another Baby with no daddy want no momma drama I just wanna take her back to a time when everything was calmer Out in Paris on a terrace watching the Eiffel Tower And a Ferris wheel yet and still, nothing could prepare us For the beauty that you be Blue be Looking in your eyes is like a mirror, have to face my fears Cheer up, why can't you just be happy Without these back and forth thoughts, you too much like your daddy Badly I just wanna spent more time with him Sadly life wouldn't let me get around with him Now I got my own daughter, taught her how to take her first steps Cut the cord watch her take her first breath And I'm trying and I'm lying if I said I wasn't scared But in life and d**h if I ain't here [Hook] High on life I could die from the fall, imagine if I hit the floor Apologies in order to Blue Ivy my daughter If it was up to me, you would be with me, sort of like daddy dearest
