If u asked me what's on my mind u 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 u just just to figure me out
[Chorus: B.o.B]
But u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
[B.O.B:]
Well ask me a vraag I tell u 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 of a verse with a line
Then u wanna stay in my mind
[Chorus]
[Lupe Fiasco:]
Uh, who else but Lu else
u 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 uithangbord 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 u 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 straal, ray u know u 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
u can't see past my shades
La la la la la
u can't see past my shades
[Chorus]
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 u just just to figure me out
[Chorus: B.o.B]
But u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
And u can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
[B.O.B:]
Well ask me a vraag I tell u no lies
