beyonce feat. jay-z - deja vu

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

( boy you hurtin' that)

brooklyn bay where they birthed me at

now i be everywhere, the nerve of rap

the audacity to have me whippin curtains back

me and b, she about to sting

stand back

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

boy, i try to catch myself

but i'm out of control

your sexiness is so appealing

i can't let it go

oh

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 deja vu

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...

deja...

vu

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

boy, i try to catch myself

but i'm out of control

your sexiness is so appealing

i can't let it go

oh

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 deja vu

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...

deja...

vu

hova's flow so unusual

baby, girl you should already know

it's h-o, light up the strobe

'cause you gon' need help tryna study my

bounce, blow, 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, tippin

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

no deja vu

just me and my, oh

baby i can't go anywhere

without thinking that you're there

seems like you're everywhere, it's true

gotta be having deja vu

'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 deja vu

boy, i try to catch myself

but i'm out of control

your sexiness is so appealing

i can't let it go whoo...

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 deja vu

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...

deja...

vu

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 deja vu

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...

deja...

vu
