New Day

(album: Watch The Throne - 2011)

[Nina Simone and Kanye West:]
Yeah, uh
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Me and the RZA connect
Breeze drifting on by
Yeah, me and the RZA connect
Breeze drifting on by (Uh)
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh (Uh)
And I'm feeling good
Yeah, uh

[Kanye West:]
And I'll never let my son have an ego
He'll be nice to everyone, wherever we go
I mean, I might even make him be Republican
So everybody know he love white people
And I'll never let him leave his college girlfriend
And get caught up with the groupies in the whirlwind
And I'll never let him ever hit the telethon
I mean, even if people dying and the world ends
See, I just want him to have an easy life, not like Yeezy life
Just want him to be someone people like
Don't want him to be hated all the time, judged
Don't be like your daddy that'd never budge
And I'll never let him ever hit a strip club
I learned the hard way, that ain't the place to get love
And I'll never let his mom move to LA
Knowing she couldn't take the pressure now we all pray

[Nina Simone and Jay-Z:]
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by
Breeze drifting on by
Me and the RZA connect
It's a new life for me, ooh
Me and the RZA connect
And I'm feeling good
Yeah

[Jay-Z:]
Sorry, junior, I already ruined ya
'Cause you ain't even alive, paparazzi pursuing ya
Sins of a father make your life ten times harder
I just wanna take ya to a barber
Bonding on charters, all the shit that I never did
Teach you good values so you cherish it
Took me 26 years to find my path
My only job is cut the time in half
So at 13, we'll have our first drink together
Black bar mitzvahs, mazel tov, mogul talk
Look a man dead in his eyes
So he know you talk truth when you speak it
Give your word, keep it
And if the day comes I only see him on the weekend
I just pray we was in love on the night that we conceived him
Promise to never leave him even if his mama tweaking
'Cause my dad left me and I promise never repeat him
Never repeat him, never repeat him

[Nina Simone:]
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by
Breeze drifting on by
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
And I'm feeling good
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by
Breeze drifting on by
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me, ooh
And I'm feeling
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
