B. O.B LYRICS - Past My Shades

"Past My Shades"

(feat. Lupe Fiasco)



[B. o.B:]

If you asked me what's on my mind you probably won't believe it

Cause if life was one big pool I'd be in the deep end

So I play my role and never ever speak it

Like a secret

And all the while you just just to figure me out



[Chorus: B. o.B]

But you can't see past my shades

Past my shades

Past my shades

And you can't see past my shades

Past my shades

Past my shades

And you can't see past my shades

Past my shades

Past my shades



[B. O.B:]

Well ask me a question I tell you no lies

Cause there's nothing to hide my souls in my eyes

And I'm ahead of my time but I cannot rewind

The only thing I fear is the mirror in my bathroom

People look and try to see a disguise

But there is nothing that nobody can't see in light

If it's a song with a rhyme or a verse with a line

Then you wanna stay in my mind



[Chorus]



[Lupe Fiasco:]

Uh, who else but Lu else

You know I got two belts the black and the white one

I begin and I master

I see in my eye glasses

But they sayin' what I'm seeing through is false like Ross

I can hear him through the wall like walk

This way they tryin' to dissuade my thoughts

I'm a slave to myself and disobey my boss

It's all in disarray this parade I walk

They get amazed when they catch a chain I toss

Amidst dis array of different ways I talk

And it hangs from your brain if my chain you caught

Like I cough without covering my mouth

I tip the scales like the King of the south

Forgot that I was fat I lost my way

But now I'm back looking for the shade I sought

And not wonders, Scott Summers

So don't make me take off my stunners

Bobby Ray you know you got my numbers

And them there can't see us like hunters



[Chorus]



La la la la la

Oh yeah

La la la la la

You can't see past my shades

La la la la la

You can't see past my shades



[Chorus]
