Proud Pop Jay-Z couldn’t wait to put his feelings about having a new baby girl on wax. So, he hit the studio to record a classic-sounding Hov track about how dope his baby girl’s genes are, and he alludes to some of the hardships he and Bey may have faced conceiving. He begins the record revealing that there had been some ‘false alarms and false starts’….. check it out!
The words are so beautiful and genuine and embodies all of the emotions that the Carters were experiencing with their first born. Baby Blue makes her musical debut when we get to hear her first cries at the end of the track.
Baby I’ll paint the sky blue, my greatest creation was you
False Alarms and false starts
All made better by the sound of your heart
All the pain of the last time
I prayed so hard it was the last time
Your mama said you danced for her
Did you wiggle your hands for her
Jay-z finishes out the song by reminiscing on when baby Blue was conceived as well as how they were affected by a prior miscarriage.
You don’t yet know what swagga is but you was made in Paris
Your mama woke up the next day and shot her album package
Last time the miscarriage was so tragic we was afraid you’d disappear
But nah baby you’re magic.
So there you have it. Sh*t happens
Just make sure the plane you on is bigger than your carry-on baggage
Everybody goes through stuff.
Life is a gift love open it up
You’re a child of destiny, you’re the child of my destiny
You’re my child with a child from child of Destiny’s Child
That’s a hell of a recipe…. Glory Glory Glory”
