Oceans – Jay Z ft Frank Ocean

“Oceans”


[Intro]

Blessings, blessings yeah


[Hook: Frank Ocean]

I see elephant tusk on the boar of a sailing lady

Docked on the Ivory Coast

Mercedes in a row winding down the road

I hope my black skin don’t dirt this white tuxedo

Before the Basquait show and if so

Well fuck it, fuck it

Because this water drown my family

This water mixed my blood

This water tells my story

This water knows it all

Go ahead and spill some champagne in the water

Go ahead and watch the sun blaze

On the waves

Of the ocean


[Verse 1: Jay-Z]

Dope boy still smelling like cocaina

White boat, white robe

Can he be more cleaner

The oil spill that BP ain’t clean up

I’m anti Santa Maria

Only Christopher we acknowledge is Wallace

I don’t even like Washingtons in my pocket

Black card go hard when I’m shopping

Boat dock in front of Hermes picking cotton

Silk and fleeces, lay on my Jesus

Oh my God, I hope y’all don’t get sea sick

See me in shit you never saw

If it wasn’t for these pictures they wouldn’t see me at all

Aww, whole world in awe

I crash through glass ceilings, I break through closed doors

I’m on the ocean, I’m in heaven

Yachting, Ocean 11


[Hook: Frank Ocean]


[Verse 2: Jay-Z]

Me and Ty Ty is like Pablo and Popeye

Winding dirt roads on mopeds spilling opus

Welcome to the magnum opus

The Magna Carta

The best-selling author Decoded

On the holiday playing “Strange Fruit”

If I’mma make it to a billi I can’t take the same route

Swoosh

Now that’s the sound of the border

Swoosh

Now that’s the sound of a baller

Muhammad Hovi my back against the rope, the black Maybach

I’m back inside the boat

Shepard Fairey they finally gave me some hope

Can’t believe they got a nigga to vote

Democrat, nope

I sold dope

In trouble water I had to learn how to float

On the ocean

I’m in heaven

Yachting

Ocean 11
