[Jay Z:]

Yeah, what you critics said would never happen.

We dedicate this album to anybody, people who said we couldn't make it.

To the fans that held us down till anybody came around.

Welcome. It's here.

Last summer we took threes across the board

But by fall we were a cover story

Now in stores

Make us poster boys in your scene

But we are not making an accepting speech

I have found the safest place to keep all of our mistakes

Every dot com's refreshing for a journal update

So long live the car-crash hearts

Cry on the couch till the poets come to life

Fix me in 45

So long live the car-crash hearts

Cry on the couch till the poets come to life

Fix me in 45

I can take your problems away

with a nod and a wave

Of my hand,

'Cause that's just the kind of boy that I am.

The only thing I haven't done yet is die

And it's me and my password at the after life

Crowds are won and lost and won again

But our hearts beat for the die hards

So long live the car-crash hearts

Cry on the couch till the poets come to life

Fix me in 45

So long live the car-crash hearts

Cry on the couch till the poets come to life

Fix me in 45

Long live the car-crash hearts

(Long live the car-crash hearts)

Long live the car-crash hearts

(Long live the car-crash hearts)

Long live the car-crash hearts

Cry on the couch till the poets come to life

Fix me in 45

[Jay Z:]

Young FOB.

Let's go.
