[Chorus: Bilal]
~#**************#~
I know I shouldn’tve did that
~#**************#~
I know its gon come right back
~#**************#~
I know its gon destroy everything I made
~#**************#~
Its probably gon get ya boy sent away
~#**************#~
But this game I play, aint no way to fix it
~#**************#~
Its inevitable that Im… (Fallin)
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
~#**************#~
Uhh, 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” (Try)
~#**************#~
Got to two bricks, new cars, new whips
~#**************#~
But niggas never learn until they end up in the news clip
~#**************#~
The irony of selling drugs is sort of like you using it
~#**************#~
Guess its two sides to what substance abuse is
~#**************#~
Cant stop, wont stop, addicted to this new shit
~#**************#~
Brand new convertibles, Im so ruthless
~#**************#~
Front row fight night, see how big my tube is
~#**************#~
Fuck HD, nigga, see how clear my view is?
~#**************#~
But theres a price for overdoing it
~#**************#~
Doing it this bigll put you on the map, stick-up kids is out to tax
~#**************#~
Plus the FBI boys with the cameras in the back
~#**************#~
Damn…
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Bilal (Jay-Z)]
~#**************#~
I know I shouldn’tve did that
~#**************#~
I know its gon come right back
~#**************#~
I know its gon destroy everything I made
~#**************#~
Its probably gon get ya boy sent away
~#**************#~
But this game I play, aint no way to fix it
~#**************#~
Its inevitable, (Now ya) fallin
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Jay-Z, (Bilal)]
~#**************#~
When you shouldve fell back
~#**************#~
Now you (Fallin), right into they lap
~#**************#~
Fallin, they applauding, they screaming at the screen
~#**************#~
Damn, you fucked up like your favorite movie scene
~#**************#~
‘Godfather, ‘Goodfellas, ‘Scarface, ‘Casino
~#**************#~
You seen what that last run did to De Niro in ‘Heat
~#**************#~
Cant beat the odds, cant cheat the Gods
~#**************#~
Cant blow too hard, lifes a deck of cards
~#**************#~
Now your tumbling is humbling, youre falling, youre mumbling
~#**************#~
Under your breath, like you knew this day was coming (Fallin)
~#**************#~
Now lets pray that arm candy
~#**************#~
That you left your ex for, stay down and come in handy
~#**************#~
‘Cause come January it gets cold
~#**************#~
When the letters start to slow, and your commissarys low
~#**************#~
And lawyers screams appeal, only thinking about a bill
~#**************#~
And your chances are nil
~#**************#~
Damn, gravitys ill…
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Bilal (Jay-Z)]
~#**************#~
I know I shouldn’tve did that
~#**************#~
I know its gon come right back
~#**************#~
I know its gon destroy everything I made
~#**************#~
Its probably gon get ya boy sent away
~#**************#~
But this game I play, aint no way to fix it
~#**************#~
Its inevitable, (But ya) fallin
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Jay-Z, (Bilal)]
~#**************#~
And you cant get up
~#**************#~
All you do is push-up, pull-up, sit-up
~#**************#~
Locked down, the town now belongs to the squares
~#**************#~
Who said they wont make the same mistake 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 in your stomach
~#**************#~
Youre sick about what your life is becoming (Fallin)
~#**************#~
But your “used-to”s, “has-been”s, ragging bad about all the new dudes
~#**************#~
Talking tough on the YouTube bout what you used to do
~#**************#~
But thats old school to the new crew
~#**************#~
They doing numbers like Sudoku
~#**************#~
Theyre the new you, and its damn near inevitable
~#**************#~
Theyll experience déja vu too
~#**************#~
Fight and youll never survive, run and youll never escape
~#**************#~
So just fall from grace
~#**************#~
Damn…
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Bilal]
~#**************#~
I know I shouldn’tve did that
~#**************#~
I know its gon come right back
~#**************#~
I know its gon destroy everything I made
~#**************#~
Its probably gon get ya boy sent away
~#**************#~
But this game I play, aint no way to fix it
~#**************#~
Its inevitable that Im…
~#**************#~
[Outro: Bilal]
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
~#**************#~
Fallin, seems like Im fallin
