Shade

Heady conversation
No spaces or 'I don't knows'
Prime articulation
Always on your toes

Steady elevation
Salivating on the prize
Making love to your reflection in believers eyes

Is that you hiding out
quiet as a mouse about to bite?
Is that you shouting out 'drinks on the house it's Friday nite'?
If it's true what you say, true what you say
Tell me why the sun is in the sky but every time you walk by
I see shade
A lotta shade
Shade
A lotta shade
I see shade

Phone in reservations
Everybody knows your name
Wide eyed chain reactions for a blink of fame
But is that you in a pinch
shaving off an inch from here and there?
Is that you debonair
under the smokescreen worse for wear ?
If it's true what you say
True what you say
Tell me why the sun is in the sky but every time you walk by

I see shade
A lotta shade
Shade
A lotta shade

Where does it all go down below?
A little tick tock 'til you blow
You're comin' real close baby
But tell me why the sun is in the sky
but every time you walk by
I see shade
A lotta shade
Shade
A lotta shade
I see shade
A lotta shade
Shade
Oh I see your
I see your
Shade
