Jay-Z

Marcy Me
Live from Bedford-Stuyvesant the livest one representing BK to the fullest Bastards ducking when Hov be buckin' chicken heads be cluckin' Back when ratchet was a ratchet and the vixen was a vixen and Jam Master Jay was alive I was mixing Cooking coke in the kitchen back when Rodman was a Piston Mike was losing to Isiah but he soon would get his sixth one Gave birth to my verbal imagination assume a virtue if you have not Or better yet here's a verse from Hamlet "Lord, we know who we are Yeah, we know not what we may be" So maybe I'm the one or maybe I'm crazy I'm from Marcy houses where the boys die by the thousand Back when Pam was on Martin yeah that's where it all started When Denzel was blottin' carpet, I'll pack a nine millimeter when Slick Rick made Mona Lisa When Lisa Bonet was Beyoncé of her day, I had divas ya'll Think I just popped up in this bitch like a fetus? Nah Pregnant pause, give you some second thoughts There's room on the bandwagon, don't abort Marcy me Marcy me Streets is my artery, the vein of my existence I'm the Gotham City heartbeat I started in lobbies now, probably with Saudis Sufi to the goofies I could probably speak Farsi That's poetry read a coca leaf from my past SongtexteCame through the bushes smelling like roses I need a trophy just for that Old Brooklyn not this new shit, shift feel like a spoof Fat laces in your shoe I'm talking busting off the roof Hold a uzi vertical, let the thing smoke Y'all flirting with death I be winking through the scope Shout out to all the murderers turned murals, plural fuck the Federal Bureau Shout out to Nostrand Ave. Flushing Ave. Myrtle All the County of Kings, may your ground stay fertile Shout out to Big Poppa, Daddy Kane, heroes Thus concluding my concerto, Marcy me Must be in the air, oh can't walk away I know I know Just the way I was raised I know I know I know Oh Marcy, Marcy me just the way I am always gonna be I ain't gonna change, no Marcy, Marcy me just the way I am (Como hás nome, cavaleiro? Eu hei nome Todo o Mundo E meu tempo…) Aus Songtexte Mania
