jay z with the roots. "song cry." Lyrics

The most incredible baby
Uhh - mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Yeah, yeah.. uhh

I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry

[jay-z]
Good dudes - I know you love me like cooked food
Even though a n____ got move like a crook move
We was together on the block since free lunch
We shoulda been together havin 4 seasons brunch
We used to use umbrellas to face the bad weather
So now we travel first class to change the forecast
Never in bunches, just me and you
I loved your point of view cause you held no punches
Still I left you for months on end
Its been months since I checked back in
Well somewhere in a small town, somewhere lockin a mall down
Woodgrain, four and change, armor alld down
I can understand why you want a divorce now
Though I cant let you know it, pride wont let me show it
Pretend to be heroic, thats just one to grow with
But deep inside a n____ so sick

[chorus]
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta let the song cry
I cant see it comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I cant see it comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry

[jay-z]
On repeat, the cd of bigs me and my b____
Watchin bonnie and clyde, pretendin to be that s___
Empty gun in your hand sayin, let me see that clip
Shoppin sprees, pull out your visa quick
A n____ had very bad credit, you helped me lease that whip
You helped me get the keys to that v dot 6
We was so happy poor but when we got rich
Thats when our signals got crossed, and we got flipped
Rather mine, I dont know what made me leave that s___
Made me speed that quick, let me see - thats it
It was the cheese helped them b____es get amnesia quick
I used to cut up they buddies, now they sayin they love me
Used to tell they friends I was ugly and wouldnt touch me
Then I showed up in that dubbed out buggy
And then they got fussy and they dont remember that
And I dont remember you..

[chorus]
I cant see it comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I cant see it comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
Yeah I seen em comin down your eyes
But I gotta make the song cry
I cant see it comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry

[jay-z]
A face of stone, was shocked on the other end of the phone
Word back home is that you had a special friend
So what was oh so special then?
You have given away without gettin at me
Thats your fault, how many times you forgiven me?
How was I to know that you was plain sick of me?
I know the way a n____ livin was whack
But you dont get a n____ back like that!
s___ Im a man with pride, you dont do s___ like that
You dont just pick up and leave and leave me sick like that
You dont throw away what we had, just like that
I was just f___in them girls, I was gon get right back
They say you cant turn a bad girl good
But once a good girls goin bad, shes gone forever..
And more forever
s___ I gotta live with the fact I did you wrong forever

[chorus]
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta let the song cry
I know I seen em comin down your eyes
But I gotta make the song cry
I cant see em comin down my eyes
So I gotta make the song cry

[jay-z]
Its f___ed up girl..
