Jay-Z - December 4th слова песни

[Intro: Gloria Carter]Shawn Carter was born December 4thWeighing in at ten pounds, eight ouncesHe was the last of my four childrenThe only one who didn`t give me any pain, when I gave birth to himAnd that`s how I knew, that he was a special child"Hi baby, what`s wrong? You look like, you`ve lost your best friend Tell me, is it something that I`ve done again? You look like, you`ve lost your best friend Tell me.."[Verse One: Jay-Z]They say they never really miss you `til you dead or you goneSo on that note I`m leavin after this songSee you ain`t gotta feel no way about Jay so longAt least let me tell you why I`m this way, hold onI was conceived by Gloria Carter and Adnus ReevesWho made love under the sycamore treeWhich makes me, a more sicker MC and my momma would claimAt ten pounds when I was born I didn`t give her no painAlthough through the years I gave her her fair shareI gave her her first real scare, I made up for birth when I got hereShe knows my purpose wasn`t (?), I ain`t perfect, I careBut I feel worthless cause my shirts wasn`t matchin my gearNow I`m just scratchin the surface cause what`s buried under thereWas a kid torn apart once his pop disappearedI went to school, got good grades, could behave when I wantedBut I had demons deep inside that would raise when confrontedHold on[Interlude: Gloria Carter]Shawn was a very shy child growing upHe was into sports, and a funny story isAt four, he taught himself how to ride a bikeA two-wheel at that, isn`t that special?But, I noticed a change in him.. when me and my husband, broke up[Verse Two: Jay-Z]Now all the teachers couldn`t reach me and my momma couldn`t beat meHard enough to match the pain of my pop not seein me SO!With that disdain in my membraneGot on my pimp game, fuck the world, my defense cameThen the Haven introduced me to the gameSpanish Jose introduced me to `caine; I`m a hustler nowMy gear is in, and I`m in the in-crowdAnd all the wavy light-skinned girls is lovin me nowMy self-esteem went through the roof, man I got my swag`Got a vocal from this girl when her man got baggedPlus I hit my momma with cash from a show that I hadsupposedly - knowin nobody paid Jaz like assI`m gettin ahead of myself, by the way, I could rapThat came second to me movin this crackGive me a second I swear, I would say about my rap career`til ninety-six came, niggaz I`m here - goodbye![Interlude: Gloria Carter] - *talkingShawn used to be in the kitchen, beating on the table and rapping And umm, into the wee hours of the morningAnd then I brought him a boomboxAnd his sisters and brothers said that he would drive them nuts But, that was my way to keep him close to me, and out of trouble[Verse Three: Jay-Z]Goodbye to the game all the spoils, the adrenaline rushYour blood boils, you in a spot, knowin cops could rushat you in the drop, you so easy to touchNo two days are alike, except the 1st and 15th pretty muchAnd trust, is a word you seldom hear from usHustlers, we don`t sleep, we rest one eye upAnd a drought could define a man when the well dries upYou learn the worth of waterWithout work you thirst `til you die - YUP!And niggaz get tied up for productAnd little brothers ring fingers get cut upto show mothers they really got `emAnd this is the stress I lived with`til I decided to try this rap shit for a livinI pray I`m forgiven - for every bad decision I madeEvery sister I played - cause I`m still paranoid to this dayAnd it`s nobody fault, I made the decisions I`ve madeThis is the life I chose, or rather the life that chose meIf you can`t respect that, your whole perspective is whackMaybe you`ll love me when I fade to blackIf you can`t respect that, your whole perspective is whackMaybe you`ll love me when I fade to blackNow if you can`t respect that, your whole perspective is whackMaybe you`ll love me when I fade to blackIf you can`t respect that, your whole perspective is whackMaybe you`ll love me when I fade to black.. {*fading out*}
