The Joy Lyrics - Jay-Z & Kanye West

1 A little sugar, honey suckle lamb

2 A grave expression of happiness

3 Boy, you could'nt miss with a dozen roses

4 Such would astound you

5 The joy of children laughing around you

6 These are the makings of you

7 It is true, the makings of you, oh

8 '''Kanye West'''

9 I do it for the fore-fathers and the street authors

10 That are not A&R's in the cheap office

11 Rappers that never got signed but they keep offers

12 Girls thats way too fine for us to keep off us

13 Gave her a handshake only for my man's sake

14 She in her birthday suit cause of the damn cake

15 Now there's crumbs all over the damn place

16 And she want me to cum all over her damn face

17 I never understood planned parenthood

18 Cause I never met nobody plan to be a parent in the hood

19 Taking refills of that plan B pill

20 Another shorty that won't make it to the family will

21 If I don't make it, can't take it, hope the family will

22 They aint crazy they don't know how insanity feel

23 Don C just had a shorty so it's not that bad

24 But I still hear the ghosts of the kids I never had

25 A little sugar, honey suckle lamb

26 A grave expression of happiness

27 Boy, you could'nt miss with a dozen roses

28 Such would astound you

29 The joy of children laughing around you

30 These are the makings of you

31 It is true, the makings of you, oh

32 '''Kanye West'''

33 No Electro, no metro, a little retro, I perfecto

34 You know the demo, ya boy act wild

35 You aint get the memo, Yeezy's back in style

36 Now when Rome go Gidget the other got Bridget

37 What's more tripped out though is they sisters

38 Nah, you aint listen, they black, they sisters

39 They momma named them after white bitches

40 So next time you see me on your fallopian

41 Though the Jewelry's Egyptian, know the hunger's Ethiopian

42 Stupid questions like "Is he gon' be dope again?

43 Have You seen him? Has anybody spoke to him?"

44 This beat deserves Hennessy, a bad bitch and a bag of weed: the Holy Trinity

45 In the mirror where I see my only enemy,

46 Your life's cursed, well mine's an obscenity

47 A little sugar, honey suckle lamb

48 A grave expression of happiness

49 Boy, you could'nt miss with a dozen roses

50 Such would astound you

51 The joy of children laughing around you

52 These are the makings of you

53 It is true, the makings of you, oh

54 '''Jay-Z'''

55 This is my momma' shit

56 I used to hear this through the walls in the hood when I was back in my pyjama shit

57 Afros and marijuana sticks, seeds and the ganja hat will be popping like the sample that I'm rhyming with

58 Pete Rock, let the needle drop

59 I seen so much as a kid they surprised I don't needle pop

60 Taking sips of pop, six packs of millanips

61 Pink champel, Valentine L

62 Bally's on my feet help me balance out well

63 That and the shit I used to balance on the scale

64 I got it, honest, from the parties from my momma's

65 Virgin Mary's try to judge her, I'm like "where the Madonna's now?"

66 Give all glory to Gloria, they said "you raised that boy too fast, but you was raising a warrior"

67 We victorious, they'll never take the joy from us

68 Keep you hands up, get mine up

69 Don't let them take your fire

70 Keep you hands up, get mine up

71 Don't let them take your fire

72 Keep you hands up, get mine up

73 Don't let them take your fire

74 Keep you hands up, get mine up

75 Yeaaaah, okay

76 It's Pete Rock, Kanye, One, two, okay

77 It's Pete Rock, Kanye, One, two, okay

78 It's Pete Rock, Kanye, One, two, okay

79 It's Pete Rock, Kanye, One, two, okay
