According to Billboard.com
-
Jay-Z joined Coldplay at Sunday night's Paralympics Closing Ceremony in London and performed and added a new verse to the band's hit, "Paradise.'" The rapper, who one song earlier performed "Run This Town" with Coldplay and Rihanna, references several Olympians in his new verse.
-
"It's paradise, this is the story of Gabby/It's paradise, it's paradise/Tears in her eyes, she sacrificed, he sacrificed, she paid the price/ This is everything, everything she ever dreamed."
-
He took to his website, Life + Times, to "decode" the verse.
-
"The thought behind the verse is, anyone with a disability, just wants a sense of normality that's why they're competing in these games," he said. "That was the idea to make the verse as inclusive for as many people, and to make it as normal as possible. It's influenced by so many different things. There are parts that are influenced by Gabby Douglas, there are parts that are influenced by Ryan Lochte, and by Serena Williams."
