Throwing a Shade

Throwing A Shade
I know the secrets you keep
I know your hearts on a shelf
I know the things you do
Before you do them yourself
I know the places you been
I know the lies that you tell
I know you say you don’t do it
But I know you do it well
PREHOOK:
Will my clairvoyance be my own undoing?
Am I just planning to fail?
Why don’t I care about the girls your screwing?
Am I just trying to prevail?
HOOK:
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
Why don’t you take off a load
Baby we bout to explode
While I’m cracking your code
Catch me down the road
Could I be all that you want?
Could I be more than you need?
Could you be looking for love
or just a reason to bleed?
PREHOOK:
Is their no remedy for my condition?
When will my wounds ever heal?
Soon as I try to fill my own prescription
You keep on breaking the seal
HOOK:
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
Why don’t you take off a load
Baby we bout to explode
While I’m cracking your code
Catch me down the road
BREAKDOWN
I’m getting out of the game
I’m tired of playing to lose
No matter which side I take
Ill end up singing the blues
HOOK:
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
You keep on throwing a shade
Over our love, our love
Why don’t you take off a load
Baby we bout to explode
While I’m cracking your code
Catch me down the road
