Fallin' Songtext
von JAY‐Z

I know I shouldn′t did that
I know it's gon′ come right back
I know it's gon' destroy everything I made
It′s probably gon′ get you boys sent away
But this game I play ain't no way to fix it
It′s inevitable that I'm (fallin′)

Said where I would stop before I even started
When I get to one brick, then the game I would depart with
Got to one brick then I looked to the sky like
"Sorry God I lied but give me one more try"
Got to two bricks, new cars, new whips
But, niggas never learn 'til they end up in the news clip
The irony of selling drugs is sort of like you using it
Guess theres two sides to what, substance abuse is


Can′t stop, won't stop, addicted to this new shit
Brand new convertibles I'm so ruthless
Front row fight night see how big my tube is
Fuck HD nigga see how clear my view is (fallin′)
But there′s a price for over doing it
Doing it this big'll put you on the map
Stick up kids is house attacks
Plus the FBI boys with the cameras in the back
Damn

I know I shouldn′t did that
I know it's gon′ come right back
I know it's gon′ destroy everything I made
It's probably gon' get you boys sent away
But this game I play ain′t no way to fix it
It′s inevitable (now ya) fallin'

When you should′ve fell back
Now you're (fallin′) right into they lap
Fallin', they applaud and they screaming at the screen
Damn, you fucked up like their favorite movie scene
Godfather, Good Fellas, Scarface, Casino
You seen what that last run did to De Niro in Heat
Can′t beat the odds can't seek the card


Can't blow too hard life′s a deck of cards
Now you′re tumbling is humbling you fall and you're mumbling
Under your breathe like you knew this day was coming (fallin′)
Now let's pray that arm candy that you left you ex for
Stay down and come in handy
′Cause come January it gets cold
When the letters start to slow and your commissary's low
When your lawyer screams appeal only thinking ′bout a bill
And your chances are a nil, damn, gravity's ill

I know I shouldn't did that
I know it′s gon′ come right back
I know it's gon′ destroy everything I made
It's probably gon′ get you boys sent away
But this game I play ain't no way to fix it
It′s inevitable (but you're) fallin'

And you can′t get up
All you do is push-up, pull-up sit-up
Lock down the town now belongs to the squares
Who said they won′t make the same mistakes that got you there
And your arm candy sweet on 'em
And the women that you left for this heifer
Got a college degree coming

Bad news keeps coming hard to keep something on your stomach
Your sick ′bout what you life is becoming (fallin')
But your use-to′s, has-beens, ragging bad about all the new dudes
Talking tough on the YouTube 'bout what you used to do
But that′s old school to the new crew
They doing numbers like Sudoku
They're the new you, and it's damn near inevitable
They′ll experience déja vu too
Fight and you′ll never survive, run and you'll never escape
So just fall for grace, damn

I know I shouldn′t did that
I know it's gon′ come right back
I know it's gon′ destroy everything I made
It's probably gon' get you boys sent away
But this game I play ain′t no way to fix it
It′s inevitable that I'm

Fallin′, seems like I'm fallin′
Fallin', seems like I′m fallin'
Fallin', seems like I′m fallin′
Fallin', seems like I′m fallin'
Fallin′, seems like I'm fallin′
Fallin', seems like I'm fallin′
Fallin′, seems like I'm fallin′
Fallin', seems like I′m...
