Shadow you're drawn
Why don't you go?
In the corner babe
Watching the snow
Moving afar
Rolling away
You weren't the one believe
Now won't you stay?
Won't you stay, babe?
Won't you stay, babe?
Oh
I never knew what come around
I never looked ahead
I'm wreckin' rules and it's pulling us down
The words I wished I'd said
Shadow you're drawn and you got your ways
Shadow you're painted red, red
Moving afar
Rolling away
You weren't the one believe
Now won't you stay?
Won't you stay babe?
Won't you stay babe?
It's drawn
It's drawn
It's drawn
It's drawn
(Three little thoughts come swirling out)
(Time to move on, to move on, time)
(Three little thoughts come swirling out)
(Time to move on, to move on, time)
(Three little thoughts come swirling out)
(Time to move on, to move on, time)
(Three little thoughts come swirling out)
One, two
Yo, I'm what the paper plate couldn't hold
Too many dreams of paper weight took a toll
Food on the floor not to get wasted
Or doing what's being pasted and know that it's not a copy
Eye on the prize instead of gas prices
Lyrically wonder why I travel past the nicest
Born of a generation that don't generate patience
And travel too fast for you to clock me
Not always a good thing
You could lose the love of your life
Through the lifetime of love on tour
I didn't mean to be a whore but my hormones
Had me like a fiend screamin' "What you got for me?"
Two words (I'm mortal)
But the fans slid 'em both together and removed the apostrophe
"Hip-hop lords?" Maybe, but my ways need laundering
Times-a-ticking, stop squandering
