Lyrics of 'Déjà Vu' by JAY-Z

Bass (uh?)
Hi-hat (uh?)
808 (uh?)
Jay (uh-huh! You ready? Uh-huh!)
Let's go get 'em (uh-huh)
C'mon (come on)

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 be everywhere, the nerve of rap
The audacity to have me with them curtains back
Me and b, she about to sting, stand back

Baby
Seem 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 outta control
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go

You 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 déjà vu
You 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 déjà vu

I'm seeing
Things that I know can't be, am I dreaming?
When I saw you walkin' past me, almost called your name
Got a better glimpse and then I looked away
Feels like I'm losing it

Boy, I try to catch myself but I'm outta control
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go

You 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 déjà vu
You 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 déjà vu

Yes!
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, 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, 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 déjà 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 déjà 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 déjà vu?

Boy, I try to catch myself but I'm outta control
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go

You 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 déjà vu
You 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 déjà vu

You 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 déjà vu
You 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 déjà vu
