Jay-Z – Sweet Lyrics  Share

From Jay-Z's album: American Gangster

[Verse 1:]
Sweet, And still there^,s pain
If I would have grew up
To be a doctor
My nephews would have grew up to do the same
But since I grew
Up through the game and my influence is the same
And my therapy is music
They ask if you ashamed
And though I wish I could separate
The two things,
I can not
So my answer to you remains
I can walk down the hall of mirrors
In Versailles
And be so satisfied when I look at my self in the eyes
No shames, No sir
Just Big Boats and tearing the cost up
Tight
Coup like I^,m wearin the roadster
For Any coup I^,m bear hugging the Holster

[Chorus:]
Hov alright, alright and that may not be
What you call perfect
But, but it^,s my life
The life, The life, The life
Once again it^,s
The life

[Verse 2:]
So I make no apologies
Crooked policies, so a G a nigga gotta be
We playing our property, no monopoly
So I^,ll pass go and let my
Nephew follow me
They say the child shall lead
So I take it far as I can
We then shall see
Shall we dance we dance with the devil
For a beat
I pray
To God I ain^,t
Got two left feet feet
Do the hustle
Put keys in the street
Then
I^,m ballroom dancing
Ke-ke^,ing in the suite
Sweet . BB^,s on the feet
Tv^,s in
The seat
Enemies on the creeps
It^,s so corrupt
Soak it, it^,s a lesson
[ Sweet lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/j/jayz/sweet/ ]
Never fuck up
One day you^,re up, next day you down long as u stay the
Same
It will come back around

[Chorus:]
Hov alright, alright and that may not be
What you call perfect
But, but it^,s my life
The life, The life, The life
Once again it^,s
The life

[Verse 3:]
I^,m even better
I^,m eating better
Best thing about it is
My niggas eatin
Together
With each endeavor
We reaching levels
Niggas ain^,t
Seen in like forever
I^,m Hyman Roth I make all my partners rich
I can
Vouch for you
If you ain^,t a part of this
So pardon me as I pave my wrist
As I parlay chips
Hov
Alright, Alright
AMERICAN GANGSTER, GANGSTER
Business like I^,m white
But I^,m not I^,m just bright
So fly with no fear of the
Flight
So if ya^,ll hear my plight
And if you think you can make it
This far
Without a fight
Couple mistakes here and there
Not always right
But I^,m always
Real
That^,s how I sleep at night

[Chorus:]
Hov alright, alright and that may not be
What you call perfect
But, but it^,s my life
The life, The life, The life
Once again it^,s
The life
