Everyday a star is born [J. Cole]

Clap for em, clap for em, clap for em [Jay-Z]
|
Everyday a star is born [J. Cole]
|
Clap for em, clap for em, clap for em [Jay-Z]
|
Hey,
|
|
[Jay-Z]
|
I seen Mase do it, I seen Ye do it,
|
X came through, caught lighter fluid,
|
Still i came through it,
|
clap for em,
|
but IĄŻm the blueprint,
|
IĄŻm like the map for em,
|
I dropped another classic,
|
Made Puff pass it,
|
nobody could touch Puff back when Puff had it,
|
Wayne scorching, IĄŻll applaud him,
|
if he keep going, pass the torch to him,
|
50 came through like hurricanes do,
|
i thought IĄŻd finish his ass at summerjam too,
|
I had the Illmatic on bootleg,
|
the shit was so ahead, thought we was all dead,
|
Wayne did a millie, 50 did a millie,
|
Ye too, but what Em did was silly,
|
the white boy blossomed after Dre endorsed him,
|
his flow on Renegade, fucking awesome,
|
Applaud him.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Snoop Dogg did, Nelly came down,
|
The Face Mob, kept it ghetto for the H town.
|
Luda moved digits after he moved bitches,
|
DrakeĄŻs up next, see what he do with it,
|
Rule had a run, couple movie parts,
|
T.I literally wanted to shoot up the charts,
|
Wat up Jeezy, wat it do,
|
yĄŻall remind me of us in early 92,
|
Outcast landed, 3 thou was ill,
|
like a male version of Lauren Hill,
|
Mobb Deep shook it but Prodigy took it a lil too far,
|
canĄŻt fuck with Brooklyn,
|
Wu Tang gang bang, Meth ate,
|
RaeĄŻ took on the date with the Purple Tape.
|
Passed on to Ason and then Ghostface,
|
they had a hell of a run,
|
standing Ova, ayyy
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
and i am one of one,
|
canĄŻt you see just how long my IĄŻve run,
|
my reign new lou sun shine
|
been a star since i was back in one time,
|
one time give it up for him,
|
December 4th a star was born,
|
Clap for him,
|
he went from moving that corner
|
to this corner office is so enormous,
|
Hey, Pres Carter,
|
Watch him get a Monica on all day,
|
Hey,
|
got so many different monikers but only 1 Jay
|
they come they go,
|
some real some foe,
|
some friends some hoes
|
but no i goes nowhere this Hov
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[J. Cole]
|
And could i be a star,
|
does fame in this game have to change who you are?
|
could i be the same one who came from a far away life,
|
just to make it in this broadway lights,
|
now shining in the broad day light, go figure,
|
a slow transition from a lil broke nigga from the Ville,
|
Got a deal a real life saver,
|
dreams of being behind the Will like Jada,
|
i chill now, cop a lil ice later, Cole you go the glow like a lil lightsaber,
|
so clap for him, then applaud Hov, he gave him the platform
|
flow so sick thought he wrote the rap for him,
|
no sir,
|
the flows cold as a shoulder of a gold digging hoes when a broke nigga approaches,
|
told ya IĄŻm focused man, IĄŻll let you muthfuckers soak it in,
|
|
|
[Chorus]
|
[End]
