[Intro: Beyoncй]
Who wants that perfect love story any way, anyway
Clichй, Clichй
Clichй, Clichй
Who wants that hero love that saves the day, anyway
Clichй, Clichй
Clichй, Clichй
What about the bad guy goes good, yeah
And the missing missing love that's misunderstood, yeah
Black hour glass, our glass
Toast to clichйs in a dark past
Toast to clichйs in a dark past
[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
Boy meets girl, girl perfect women
Girl get the bustin' before the cops come running
Chunking deuces, chugging D'USSE
Fuck what you say, boys in blue say
[Verse 2: Beyoncй]
I don't care if you on the run
Baby as long as I'm next to you
And if loving you is a crime
Tell me why do I bring out
The best in you
[Bridge: Beyoncй]
I hear sirens while we make love
Loud as hell but they don't know
They're nowhere near us
I will hold your heart and your gun
I don't care if they come, noooo
I know it's crazy but
[Hook: Beyoncй]
They can take me
Now that I found the places that you take me
Without you I got nothing lose
[Verse 3: Jay-Z]
I'm an outlaw, got an outlaw chick
Bumping 2Pac, on my outlaw shit
Matching tatts, this Ink don't come off
Even if rings come off
If things ring off
My nails get dirty
My past ain't pretty, my lady is, my Mercedes is
My baby momma harder then a lot of you niggas
Keep it 100, hit the lottery niggas
You ain't about that life ain't gotta lie to me, nigga
You know its till the death, I hope it obvi to niggas
Cross the line, speak about mine
I'mma wave this tech, I'mma geek about mine
Touch a nigga where his rib at, I click clat
Push your ma'fucka wig back, I did that
I been wilding since a juvi
She was a good girl till she knew me
Now she is in the drop bussin' U'e
Screaming...
[Hook]
[Verse 4: Jay-Z]
Deeper then words, beyond right
Die for your love, beyond life
Sweet as a Jesus piece, beyond ice
Blind me baby with your neon lights
Ray Bans on, police in sight
Oh, what a beautiful death
Let's both wear white
If you go to heaven and they bring me to hell
Just sneak out and meet me, bring me a box of L's
She fell in love with the bad guy, the bad guy
What you doing with them rap guys, them rap guys
They ain't see potential in me girl, but you see it
If it's you and me against the world, then so be it
[Verse 5: Beyoncй]
I don't care if they give me life
I get all my life from you
And if loving you had a price
I would pay my life for you
[Bridge]
[Verse 6: Beyoncй]
I don't care I will never give it up
Give it up, give it up, give it all away
No I swear, no I swear
Without you I got nothing to lose
