[Jay-Z]
Ay yo I got a resolution
This year I’m playing right
No six fifteen this year
You can stay the night
We can go bowling it ain’t like before
Can’t y’all see that I’m growing?
I was so immature
I was young and having money
Having honeys come to the crib
Thinkin’ they s–t and they couldn’t get cab money from me
Some bad chicks didn’t get pass the bridge

[Verse 1]
Yo, it’s the rap up 2012, let’s get this thing crackin’
I’mma tell y’all right now, this whole song gon’ be ratchet
Common threw a shot at Drake, but he ain’t wanna catch it
Giants won the Super Bowl, plus that whole Kony madness
Linsanity had New York on fire like wasabi
And you couldn’t go anywhere without hearing about Blue Ivy
Congrats to Jay and B for adding to they crew
I mean why was y’all so shocked, ain’t that what married people do?
And I’m still in my hoodie cause this violence ain’t stopping
Hope we see justice for the youngin’ Trayvon Martin
And Nicki dissed the fans, bands a make ’em dance
We got that iPhone 5, and ran to Instagram
Brian Mcknight, dumbest song of the year
Let me show how your —– works, but he ain’t get no volunteers
Kim and Kanye, huh, had us all tripping
Yeah, Mary J. Blige was out here singing for chicken
Y’all slipping, man
Bath salt zombies was all over the tubes
Same sex marriages, yes, Obama would approve
Drake met Chris Brown with a bottle in between
D’Angelo came back, LeBron got that ring

I don’t feel like writing, so this works.

You believe there’s something else
To relieve your emptiness
And you dream about yourself
And you bleed and breathe the air
And it’s on and on
I just kinda died for you
You just kinda stared at me
We will always have the chance
We can do this one more time
Hell yeah, I remember aurora
All this time
Take me now, we can spin the sun around
And the stars will all come out
Then we’ll turn and come back down
