Jay-Z - History songtekst
Je score:
[Chorus: Cee-lo] Now that all the smoke is gone (Lighter) And the battle's finally won (Gimme a lighter) Victory (Lighters up) is finally ours (Lighters up) History, so long, so long So long, so long [Verse 1: Jay-Z] In search of victory, she keeps eluding me If only we could be together momentarily We can make love and make history Why won't you visit me? until she visit me I'll be stuck with her sister, her name is defeat She gives me agony, so much agony She brings me so much pain, so much misery Like missing your last shot and falling to your knees As the crowd screams for the other team I practice so hard for this moment, victory don't leave I know what this means, I'm stuck in this routine Whole new different day, same old thing All I got is dreams, nobody else can see Nobody else believes, nobody else but me Where are you victory? I need you desperately Not just for the moment, to make history [Chorus: Cee-lo] Now that all the smoke is gone (Lighters) And the battle's finally won (Lighters) Victory is finally ours (Yeah) History (yeah), so long, so long So long, so long [Verse 2: Jay-Z] So now I'm flirting with death, hustling like a G While victory wasn't watching took chances repeatedly As a teenage boy before acne, before I got proactiv I couldn't face she I just threw on my hoodie and headed to the street That's where I met success, we'd live together shortly Now success is like lust, she's good to the touch She's good for the moment but she's never enough Everybody's had her, she's nothing like V But success is all I got unfortunately But I'm burning down the block hoppin' in and out of V But something tells me that there's much more to see Before I get killed because I can't get robbed So before me success and death ménage I gotta get lost, I gotta find V We gotta be together to make history [Chorus: Cee-lo] Now that all the smoke is gone (Lighters. Up.) And the battle's finally won (Lighter. Up.) Victory is finally ours (Lighters. Up.) History, so long, so long So long, so long [Verse 3: Jay-Z] Now victory is mine, it tastes so sweet She's my trophy wife, you're coming with me We'll have a baby who stutters repeatedly We'll name him history, he'll repeat after me He's my legacy, son of my hard work Future of my past, he'll explain who I be Rank me amongst the greats, either 1, 2, or 3 If I ain't number one then I failed you victory Ain't in it for the fame that dies within weeks Ain't in it for the money, can't take it when you leave I wanna be remembered long after you grieve Long after I'm gone, long after I breathe I leave all I am in the hands of history That's my last will and testimony This is much more than a song, it's a baby shower I've been waiting for this hour, history you ours [Chorus: Cee-lo (2x)] Now that all the smoke is gone And the battle's finally won Victory is finally ours History, so long, so long So long, so long
