![Next up, letter O: “Oceans” #JayZ30 #JayZ Jay-Z and Elliott Wilson sat down in 2013 inside Yankee Stadium for “The Truth: #FACTSONLY” interview, where the rapper revealed he recorded lyrics for “Oceans” after ‘Watch the Throne’ was finished. He had the track over a year before ‘Magna Carta... Holy Grail’ was released. In the behind-the-scenes sessions, Jay described the meaning behind the song. Jay-Z: “It’s like me now, no matter where I go in life and the things I accomplish, you walk in that room, your past still comes in with you. ...It [‘Oceans’] sounds like a celebration of where we are now, you know, on some big yacht and throwing champagne in the water, but the undertow of the thing is like, this same water is the water that brought us here, originally, as slaves. So, it has this whole duality and how we are rewriting history, even the stories that we were told about the history of America.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2071286484309536846/amplify_video_thumb/2071285561092980736/img/fcSufTicWpYmz9t6.jpg)
