THROUGH THE SHADE Lyrics by ​ikewyd

INNER SPACE

2020

[Chorus]
Getting through the shade, it's a cycle
Scaling up the tower like it’s Eiffel
I don't want no problems, I don't stifle
But you know I’m gonna shine like a lightbulb
All my feelings be controlling me
They just want to know the recipe
Everyone wanna act like they know me
Really, we don't got no history
With the squad, yeah I'm with the team
Can't stop me, I'm on a spree
Everything isn't what it seems
Don't wanna wake up, it's a dream
[Verse 1]
I was down below and now I’m bouncing back
You was sleeping on me, now you wanna chat
Golden like an apple, but don’t got a Mac
I'm ahead now, you was losing track
Now these niggas wanna say sum
Balling out like I’m Trae Young
Now they wanna ride the wave
But this ain't Hawaiian Punch
Turning up the heat, bitch I'm locked in
All they used to do was fucking hate on me like Hopsin (Hate)
Now they see me grinding, all of a sudden I'm wanted
Flexing on these bitches, guess you could call me Ms. Martin (Sheesh, flex, flex)
Left that BS in the past
Working on myself and making sure I don’t come last
Bangers only, I know that they gotta keep it blastin'
Throwing away all the fakes, ya'll are made of plastic
They the ones they never wanted me to win or have it
Now I'm looking back on it, man that shit is tragic
Hopping on this beat and you know I'm gon' attack it
Started from the bottom, man you know I never had shit
[Chorus]
Getting through the shade, it's a cycle
Scaling up the tower like it's Eiffel
I don't want no problems, I don't stifle
But you know I'm gonna shine like a lightbulb
All my feelings be controlling me
They just want to know the recipe
Everyone wanna act like they know me
Really, we don't got no history
With the squad, yeah I'm with the team
Can't stop me, I'm on a spree
Everything isn't what it seems
Don't wanna wake up, it's a dream
[Verse 2]
Don't got a jetpack but I'm joyriding
Always with my people, man we never dividing
I ain't switching up, I'm not changing like the climate
I'm not Chris Brown but I'm feeling undecided
Got so many thoughts inside my head they keep me thinking
Blinded my the lights, but you can't call me The Weeknd
Keep it on the low, cause right now I feel like creeping
Schooling all these niggas and I'm not even a teacher
[Chorus]
Getting through the shade, it's a cycle
Scaling up the tower like it's Eiffel
I don't want no problems, I don't stifle
But you know I'm gonna shine like a lightbulb
All my feelings be controlling me
They just want to know the recipe
Everyone wanna act like they know me
Really, we don't got no history
With the squad, yeah I'm with the team
Can't stop me, I'm on a spree
Everything isn't what it seems
Don't wanna wake up, it's a dream
