Blue Lyrics

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

Beyoncé dedicates the last track on the normal version of her eponymous album to her daughter Blue Ivy Carter, born in 2012. Bey’s husband and Blue’s father Jay Z has previously dedicated two songs to his daughter, “Glory” and “Jay Z Blue”.

The Brazil-shot video, crooning vocals, and tender, pure emotion captured in the song turn Blue into a dark horse on the album – certainly not anything for pop radio, but a song to listen to when thinking about people you love.

Blue’s appearance on the former made her the youngest Billboard charting artist ever, and possibly the youngest featured artist with a Genius profile.

Apparently Blue is a bigger fan of Hov’s music than her mom’s.
