In My Lifetime (Remix)

Lyrics

[Intro] "In my lifetime" "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? [Verse 1: Jay-Z] It's the thought of a ride that make my eyes wide, I'm caught upI'm tryna make all of my dreams materialize , so I sorta Say my goodbyes to the straight and narrow I found a new route, you 'bout to see my life change I make the means justify the ends I make the cream, materialize keys to a BenzAnd so I'm rollin' For now, holdin' down the fort, who's controllin'? The ground's gotta blow 'em, yep, y'all shoulda told 'em Uhh, my first felony's approachin' Copped my first key, took a freeze, now I'm frozen I bought a black MAC, I'm outta control Losin' bankrolls on blackjack, you gotta know It always crossed my mindThat Feds be tappin' the lines like Gregory Hines Still on the phone, discussin' my biz like it could never be mines I know the price, know the risk, know the wrongs and the rights Still my blood flows ice, it's just my life, uh [Chorus] What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" [Verse 2: Jay-Z] I'm like the bass with the ass, splashin' cold cash The Big Willie get you chilly when I pass, huuuuhhh Is it, just a mirage all these girls thankin' God? Is this, world my world? Am I the star of stars? Baby, pimped out, I'm gettin' too large and smokin' cigars All chicks is hollerin' about Jig-ga, the whole city's buzzin'Wasn't checkin' for me a dozen or so, months agoNow I'm all they know, I'm a person (yeah) Lettin' the Cristal's breathe at the Barnacle BarUnder my sleeve, vernacular, 50 G's I'm talkin' big cheese, you gotta be down to dig these (uhh)Give me a rush like you wouldn't believeMy head's about to bust , acceleratin' what drives me Hope I don't gotta die to see, see, I can't lie to me I know the price, know the risk, know the wrongs and the rights Still my blood flows ice, it's just my life [Chorus] What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" [Verse 3: Jay-Z] Uhh, from the beginnin', see, we never seen the endin' Runnin' up in all the women, all the linen, all the jewels, huh We sported Pele's, gold diamonds and Pirelli's Sports cars, the good life'll give you a belly But that's cool, as I zone in the Al Capone, watch me 'Cause the Medusa's head on Versace turned me to stone Now my poems just ain't poems, they bloody when I recite 'em Bones get disconnected like the phones Now, I'm a hardened criminal with game Like the Garden, all my penpals life controlled by the warden Still the thrill makes me blind to the factI could do real time, I'm a prisoner of my crimesKnow the price, know the risk, know the wrongs and the rightsNow I'm incarcerated for my life [Chorus] What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime" What's the meaning, what's the meaning of life? "In my lifetime"
