Beach Chair

Life is but a dream to me, I don't wanna wake up 30 odd years been 'bout havin' my cake up So I'm 'bout my paper, 24/7, 365, 366 in a leap year I don't know why we here, since we gotta be here Life is but a beach chair (chair, chair chair) Went from havin' shabby clothes to crossin' over Abbey Road Hear my angel singin' to me (Are you happy, Hov?) I just hope I'm hearin' right, karma's got me fearin' like Kalik are you prayin' for me? (for me) See I got demons in my past so I got daughters on the way If the prophecy's correct that the child shall have to pay For the sins of her father so I barter my tomorrows Against my yesterdays and hope that she'll be okay And when I'm no longer here to shade her face from the glare I give up my share of Carol's daughter and a new beach chair [Chorus] (I hear my angels sing) Life is just a dream and I wanna go, wake up (I hear my angels sing) Life is just a dream and I wanna leave (I hear my angels sing) Life is just a dream and I wanna go, wake up (I hear my angels sing) Life is just a dream and I wanna leave Life is but a dream to me, gunshots sing to these Other guys but lullabies don't mean a thing to me I'm not afraid of dyin', I'm afraid of not tryin' Every day hit every wave like I'm Hawaiian I don't surf the net, no I never been on MySpace Too busy lettin' my voice vibrate Carvin' out my space, in this world of fly girls Cutthroats and diamond cut ropes I twirls Benzes 'round corners where the sun don't shine I let the wheels give a glimpse of hope and one's grind Son said "Hov, how you get so fly?" I said "from not bein' afraid to fall out the sky" My physical's a shell so when I say farewell My soul'll find and even higher plane to dwell So fly you shall, so have no fear Just know that life is but a beach chair (chair, chair) [Chorus] Life is but a dream, can't mimic my life I'm the thinnest cut slice in a cut, the winner's cup Well winter's rough enough to interrupt life That's why I'm both saint and sinner, nice This is Jay everyday, no compromise No compass comes wit' this life, just eyes So to map it out you must look inside Sure books can guide you but your heart defines you Chica, the corazon is what brought us home The great shape like Heidi Klum mighty gone, I am on Permanent vaca', life is but a beach chair Song's like a Hallmark card until you reach here So 'til she's here, and she's declared The heir, I will prepare A blueprint for you to print, a map for you to get back A guide for your eyes so you won't lose scent I make it stink for you think I ink these verses Full of prose so you won't get conned out of two cents My last will and testament I leave my heir My share of Roc-A-Fella Records and a shiny new beach chair [Chorus: x2] I hear my angels sing
