B.o.B. Lyrics

"Past My Shades" lyrics


If you ask me what's on my mind
You probably wont 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 tryna figure me out
But you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

CHROUS (X3)
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

VERSE ONE
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 and see a disguise
But there is nothing nobody can't see in light
If it's a song with a rhyme or a verse with a line
Then you understand my mind
But you can't see past my shades

CHROUS (X3)
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

VERSE TWO (Lupe)
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 eyeglasses
But they sayin' what I'm seein' through is false like Ross
I can hear'em through the wall like walk
This way you try'n to dissuade my thoughts
I'm slave to myself and disobey my boss
It's all in disarray this parade I walk
They get amazed when they catch the chain I toss
Amidst disarray 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 [weigh]
But now I'm back looking for the shade I sought
And not wonders, Scott Summers
So don't make me take off my stunnas
Bobby Ray you know you my numbas
And them deer can't see us like huntas (aye)

CHROUS (X2)
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades

BRIDGE
Yea, (Bring it down)
La, la la la, la laaa (laa)
Oh yea
La, la la la, la laaa (laa)
You can't see past my shades
La, la la la, la laaa (laa)
You can't see past my shades
La, la la la, la laaa (laa)

CHORUS (X2)

VERSE THREE
Well the objective of my suggestive method
Is to open you up and then your head I will mess with
So I am obsessed with music and I am restless
Just to wake you up like a nesquick beverage
And of you get my drift then the flow you will step with
No matter what I say know you feel the direction
I knew why I came since I was concepted
I mean conceived _________________

CHROUS (X2)
And you can't see past my shades
Past my shades
Past my shades
