"Allure" by Jay-Z

young....it's the life
once again it's the life
yes


i don't know why I.....get so high off...get so high
off.....get so high; high off the life 



Verse 1

the allure of breaking the law...is always too much for me
to ever ignore........ i got a thing for them big body
benzes it dulls my senses....... in love with a v-dub
engine...man i'm high off life fuck it i'm wasted bathing
ape kicks audemars piguet wrist....my women friend get
tennis bracelets.... trips to venice....get their winters
replaced with.... the sun it aint even no fun no more i'm
jaded.... man it's just the game i just play it to play
it.... i put my feet in the in the footprints left to me
without saying a word...the ghetto's got a mental
telepathy....man my brother hustled so naturally....up next
is me...but what perplexes... me shit i know how this movie
ends..... still i play the starring role in "hovitos
way" it's just life 

Chorus
i solemly swear to change my approach.... stop shaving
coke..... stay away from hoes..... put down the toast cause
i be doin' the most...oh no! but everytime i felt that was
that..... they call me right back...... they call me right
back....... man they call me right back... oh no!

Verse 2

i'm like a russian mobster drinking distilled vodka till i'm
under the feild with hoffa.... it's real... peel the top up
like a toupe mix the water with the soda turn the pie to
make a soufle..... all of yall can get it like group page in
ya two way...... i'm livin proof that crime do pay...... say
horray to the bad guy and all the broads puttin' cars in
they name for the stars of the game...... puttin cain in
they bras and their tomorrows on a train...... all in the
name of love just to see that love locked in chains and the
family came..... over the house to take back everything that
they claimed ....but even the worse pain is the distress
learning you're the mistress only after that love gets
slain..... and the anger and the sorrow mixed up leads to
mistrust now it gets tough to ever love again....... but the
allure of the game keeps calling ya name and all the laura's
of the world i feel ya pain all the christi's in every
cities and tiffany lanes we all hustlers in love with the
same thang...... it's just life

Chorus
i solemly swear to change my approach.... stop shaving
coke..... stay away from hoes..... put down the toast cause
i be doin' the most...oh no! but everytime i felt that was
that..... they call me right back...... they call me right
back....... man they call me right back... oh no!

Verse 3

i never felt more alive than ridin' shotgun in kleins green
five until the cops pull guns...... and try to smoke weed to
gimme the fix i need what the game did to my pulse with no
results...... or you could treat ya nose and still won't
come close...... the game is a light bulb with eleventy
million volts and i'm just a moth addicted to the floss when
the doors lift from the floor and the tops come off..... by
any means necessary whatever the cost even if it means lives
is lost........ and i can't explain why i just love to get
high drink like smoke the blueberry sky blink twice
......i'm in the blueberry five you blink three times.......
i may not even be alive..... i mean james dean couldn't
escape the allure dying young leavin' a good lookin' corpse
...... of course

Chorus
i solemly swear to change my approach.... stop shaving
coke..... stay away from hoes..... put down the toast cause
i be doin' the most...oh no! but everytime i felt that was
that..... they call me right back...... they call me right
back....... man they call me right back... oh no!

once again it's the life
yea I said it's the life
once again it's the life 
oh no!

i don't know why I.....get so high off...get so high
off.....get so high; high off the life
