Jay-z - Pound Cake / Paris Morton Music 2 lyrics

[Intro: Christian Rich and Utters] "Good God Almighty. Like back in the old days. You know, years ago they had the A&R men to tell you what to play, how to play it and you know whether it's disco and rock but we just went in the studio and we did it. We had champagne in the studio, of course, you know, compliments of the company, and we just laid back and did it. So we hope you enjoy listening to this album half as much as we enjoyed playing it for you. Because we had a ball. Only real music is gonna last, all the other bullsh** is here today and gone tomorrow..."

It's worth it to share it with someone else other than Paris for once I text her from time to time. She a mom now I guess sometimes life forces us to calm down I told her that she could live with me if she needs to. I got a compound but I think she straight 'Cause she supported since hot beats right before Wayne came and got me out of the back room where I was rapping with Jaz over beats that I shouldn't have in the hopes for the glory He walked right past in the hallway three months later I'm his artist he probably wouldn't remember that story But that sh** stick with me always couldn't believe when he called me you never know it could happen to you and I just spent four Ferrari's all on a brand new Bugatti and did that sh** 'cause it's something to do Yeah, I guess that's just who I became, dog, nothing was the same, dog
