[Jay-Z]
 Uh-huh, uh
 Jigga man, uh-huh MC
 that's right
 Swizz Beatz
 Uh, uh, come on
 [Mariah (Jay-Z)]
 It's the things that you do
 That make me feel so...
 (Come on, inhale, exhale, breathe on it for me)
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explain
 (Uh)
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Bounce, bounce)
 It's the things that you do
 That make me feel so..
 (Exhale breathe on it for me)
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explain (Yeah)
 I love you
 (Uh come on)
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 [Jay-Z]
 You know the flow sicka, know Jigga, mo' sicka now right
 You know what me and Swizz's shit sound like
 Crazed and demonic, uh without blazin chronic
 Product of Reaganomics
 You know that motherfuckin stoop raised me
 Ringin in da hoops but I was too lazy
 School made me sick, teachers said I was too crazy
 Low and behold, it's the new and improved Jay-Z
 Let me explain this to you baby
 I spent nights out, days in
 Niggaz was blazing, twelve noon where I was raised in
 I felt caged in but kept roaming
 Prayed for the Day of Atonement
 Married to the streets no date of annulment
 It seems every time it comes up
 They postpone it
 So I kept my chrome at the waist
 Waiting for the omen
 Savoring the moment and now you know
 The reason that I flow the way I flow baby
 [Mariah (Jay-Z)]
 It's the things that you do
 (Uh, inhale, exhale, breathe on it)
 That make me feel so..
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explains
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Bounce, shake, bounce, shake)
 It's the things that you do
 That make me feel so..
 (Uh, exhale, breathe on it for me)
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain (Uh)
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Drop, bounce, yo)
 [Jay-Z]
 You know I move like an ounce
 Bottled up like crack
 That's how I make you bounce like that
 Defy Webster's words they can't pronounce like that
 That's why no other rapper got a sound like that
 Trap, trap of my life
 Flashback, kill niggaz
 Rap skills unmatched, Jigga man baby
 I can't entertain it sometimes I can't explain it
 God given, gifts of a soul for hard living
 Far be it from me to question Allah's wisdom
 Could've been lost in the system
 Instead I'm involved with the rhythm
 I dodged prison, came out unscathed from car collisions
 I know I must be part of some mission
 Shit I used take it for granted
 Why they placed me on this planet
 I would ask myself while writin raps to myself
 But right there under my nose
 Was the flow of all flows
 Not a demon but a rose in the cement, come on
 [Mariah (Jay-Z)]
 It's the things that you do
 That make me feel so..
 (Inhale, exhale, breathe on it MC)
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explain
 (Uh)
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Bounce, shake, shake it, uh)
 It's the things that you do
 That make me feel so..
 (Exhale, uh)
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Lights out nigga)
 [Jay-Z]
 You know I've traveled through zones
 Homes spazzed like a bad back
 I came into this game on Jaz's back
 I jumped off stood on my own two like boom, that's that
 Yeah I'm here to show and prove
 Don't matter to me the Garden or flowin on Clue
 Whatever niggas want to do - it's alright with me
 Whether you big or bossy, jig or flossy
 Dusty or musty, sober or saucy
 Broker than Todd Bridges, richer than Bill Cosby
 Forgive me for my arrogance or you still salty?
 Past on to the next life and you still haunt me
 I'mma keep doing me unfortunately
 I make the club rock, make thugs pop guns
 Make old folks do the bus stop; can't stop son
 Shit I give you what's hot and what's not, I never knew
 why'all (niggas) know (niggas) how (niggas) do
 [Mariah (Jay-Z)]
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 (Uh, exhale, inhale)
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Uh, bounce, shake, what? uh-huh)
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 (Uh-huh, inhale, exhale)
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Bounce, shake ladies)
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 (Uh-huh, breathe for me, uh, uh-huh)
 And I don't know the way I feel
 I can explain
 (Uh)
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 (Lights out niggas)
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
 It's the things that you do that make me feel so..
 And I don't know the way I feel I can explain
 I love you
 You thug look at what you make the clubs do
