"Everyday A Star Is Born"

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

Have seen Ma$e do it, seen Ye do it
X came through, caught lighter fluid
Still I came through it, clap for 'em
But I'm the Blueprint, I'm like the map for 'em

I dropped another classic, make Puff pass it
Nobody could touch Puff back when Puff had it
Wayne's scorching, I'll applaud him
If he keep going, pass the torch to him

50 came through like hurricanes do
I thought I'd finish his ass at Summer Jam 2
I had the 'Illmatic' on bootleg
Shit was so ahead, thought we was all dead

Wayne did 'A Milli', 50 did a millie, Ye too
But what Em did was silly, the white boy blossomed
After Dre endorsed him, his flow on renegade
Fucking awesome, applaud him

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

Snoop Dogg did, Nelly came down
Face Mobb, kept it ghetto for the H-town
Luda moved digits after he moved bitches
Drake's up next, see what he'll do with it

Rule had a run, couple movie parts
T.I literally wanted to shoot up the charts
Wadup Jeezy, what it do?
Y'all remind me of us in early '92

Outkast landed, 3-thou was ill
Like a male version of Lauren Hill
Mobb Deep shook it but Prodigy took it a lil' too far
Can't fuck with Brooklyn

Wu-Tang gang bang, Meth ate
Rae' took on the date with the Purple Tape
Passed on to Ason and then Ghostface
They had a hell of a run, standing ova, hey

Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

And I am one of one
Can't you see just along my front?
My brain, new Lou sun shine
Been a star since I was back in one time
One time give it up for him

December 4th, a star was born, clap for him
He went from moving that corner
To this corner office is so enormous
Hey, Pres Carter watch him get a Monica on all day

Hey, got so many different monikers
But only one Jay, they come they go
Some real some foe, some friends some hoes
But no I goes nowhere, this Hov

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

And could I be a star
This fame in this game have to change who you are
Could I be the same one who came from a far away life?
Just to make it in this Broadway lights

Now shining in the broad day light, go figure
A slow transition from a lil' broke nigga from the Ville
Got a deal a real life saver
Dreams of being behind the wheel like Jada

I chill now couple of lil' ice later
Cole, you go the glow like a lil' light-saber
So clap for him then applaud Hov, he gave him a platform
Flow so sick, thought he wrote the rap for him, no sir

The flow's cold as a shoulder of a gold
Digging hoes when a broke nigga approaches
Told ya, I'm focused man
I'll let you muthafuckers soak it in

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey

(Can you say New York City?)
Everyday a star is born
Clap for 'em, clap for 'em, clap for 'em, hey
