BEYONCE/JAY Z – DEJA VU

Lyrics

[Intro:]
[Beyonce:] Bass.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] Hi hat.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] 808.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] Jay
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh
Ready?
Uh-huh.
[Beyonce:] Let's go get 'em.
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh, come on.
[Jay-Z:]
I used to run base like Juan Pierre
Now I run the bass hi hat and the snare
I used to bag girls like Birkin Bags
Now I bag B
[Beyonce:] Boy you hurtin' that
[Jay-Z:]
Brooklyn Bay where they birthed me at
Now I be everywhere, the nerve of rap
The audacity to have me whipping curtains back
Me and B, she about to sting
Stand back
[Verse 1]
Baby seems like everywhere I go
I see you, from your eyes, your smile
It's like I breathe you, helplessly I reminisce
Don't want to compare nobody to you
[Pre-Hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go
Oh
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
[Verse 2]
Seeing things that I know can't be
Am I dreaming? When I saw you walking past me
Almost called your name
Got a better glimpse and then I looked away
It's like I'm losing it
[Pre-hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go, oh
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
[Jay-Z]
Yes! Hova's flow so unusual
Baby, girl you should already know
It's H O, light up the dro'
'Cause you gon' need help tryin' to study my bounce, flow, blow
What's the difference?
One, you take in vein while the other you sniffin'
It's still dough, po-po try to convict him
That's a no-go
My dough keep the scales tipping like 4-4's
Like I'm from the H O U S T O N
Blow, wind so Chicago of him
Is he the best ever, that's the argu-a-ment
I don't make the list, don't be mad at me
I just make the hits, like a factory
I'm just one-to-one, nothin' after me
Just me and my, Oh
[Bridge]
Baby I can't go anywhere
Without thinking that you're there
Seems like you're everywhere, it's true
Gotta be having Déja Vú
'Cause in my mind I want you here
Get on the next plane, I don't care
Is it because I'm missing you
That I'm having Déjá Vú
[Pre-hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go
Whoo...
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Déjá Vú.

Paroles (Traduction)

[Intro:]
[Beyonce:] Basse.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] Charleston.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] 808.
[Jay-Z:] Uh.
[Beyonce:] Jay
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh
Prêt ?
Uh-huh.
[Beyonce:] Allons les chercher.
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh, viens.
[Jay-Z:]
Je courais les bases comme Juan Pierre
Maintenant je dirige la basse, la charleston et la caisse claire
Je draguais des filles comme des sacs Birkin
Maintenant je drague B
[Beyonce:] Mon gars, tu assures
[Jay-Z:]
Brooklyn Bay où j'ai grandi
Maintenant je suis partout, l'audace du rap
L'audace de me faire ouvrir les rideaux
Moi et B, elle va frapper
Recule
[Couplet 1]
Il semble que partout où je vais
Je te vois, dans tes yeux, ton sourire
C'est comme si je te respirais, je me remémore impuissante
Je ne veux comparer personne à toi
[Pré-refrain]
Mon gars, j'essaie de me retenir
Mais je perds le contrôle
Ta séduction est si attirante
Je ne peux pas m'en passer
Oh
[Refrain]
Je sais que je ne peux pas t'oublier
Parce que tout ce que je vois c'est toi
Et je ne veux pas de substitut
Bébé, je jure que c'est du déjà-vu
Je sais que je ne peux pas t'oublier
Parce que tout ce que je vois c'est toi
Et je ne veux pas de substitut
Bébé, je jure que c'est du déjà-vu
[Couplet 2]
Je vois des choses qui ne peuvent pas être
Suis-je en train de rêver ? Quand je t'ai vu passer
J'ai failli appeler ton nom
J'ai eu un meilleur aperçu et puis j'ai détourné le regard
J'ai l'impression de perdre la tête
[Pré-refrain]
Mon gars, j'essaie de me retenir
Mais je perds
