Shades Lyrics
[Verse 1]
People say that I'm a rock star
They think I stay up all night (all night, all night)
Well just because I'm such a rock star
Doesn't mean I only get high (get high, get high, huh)
(Horns)
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I look good (he look good)
Got money in the bank (God damn that’s a lot of money)
Said, I look good (he look good)
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I gotta wear my shades
'Cause there's sunshine, dripping down my face
Don't let these people lie to ya
Don't let 'em see ya smile too much
They only tryna take it away
[Post-Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta hide from 'em
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
Yeah, yeah, don't talk to me
[Verse 2]
People say I take it too far
I don’t see nothing wrong (damn right, damn right)
Cuz I’m a mother fucking rock star
I can do what I want (get high, get high)
(Horns)
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I look good (he look good)
Got money in the bank (God damn that’s a lot of money)
Said, I look good (he look good)
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I gotta wear my shades
'Cause there's sunshine, dripping down my face
Don't let these people lie to ya
Don't let 'em see ya smile too much
They only tryna take it away
[Post-Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta hide from 'em
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
[Bridge]
You know, things always look a little different
I gotta wear my shades
When you got some tint on your lenses
'Cause there's sunshine
Can't let 'em see what's under the shades
Dripping down my face
You feel me
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I gotta wear my shades (you know what I mean?)
'Cause there's sunshine, dripping down my face
Don't let these people lie to ya
Don't let 'em see ya smile too much
They only tryna take it away
[Post-Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta hide from 'em
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
[Outro]
Well I look good (you look good)
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Got money in the bank
Well I look good (you look good)
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I don't give a fuck what you think
People say that I'm a rock star
They think I stay up all night (all night, all night)
Well just because I'm such a rock star
Doesn't mean I only get high (get high, get high, huh)
(Horns)
Well I look good (he look good)
Got money in the bank (God damn that’s a lot of money)
Said, I look good (he look good)
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Sometimes, I gotta wear my shades
'Cause there's sunshine, dripping down my face
Don't let these people lie to ya
Don't let 'em see ya smile too much
They only tryna take it away
Sometimes you gotta hide from 'em
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
Yeah, yeah, don't talk to me
People say I take it too far
I don’t see nothing wrong (damn right, damn right)
Cuz I’m a mother fucking rock star
I can do what I want (get high, get high)
(Horns)
Well I look good (he look good)
Got money in the bank (God damn that’s a lot of money)
Said, I look good (he look good)
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Don’t give a fuck whatchu think
Sometimes, I gotta wear my shades
'Cause there's sunshine, dripping down my face
Don't let these people lie to ya
Don't let 'em see ya smile too much

Sometimes you gotta hide from 'em
Don't let 'em see what's under the shades
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Don't let 'em see ya smile too much

Got money in the bank
Well I look good (you look good)
(Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I don't give a fuck what you think
