Form Of Flattery - The-Dream
I’m sorry I can’t
meet your approval
So please keep the hand claps
No need for a compliment
I can pat myself on the back
No dying for an award
You can keep the trophy
I could really care less
Whether any of y’all
motherfuckers know me
Excuse my french
pardon me
I don’t mean to
steal your shine
Man I’ll be in this sun
for so long
Lookin’ my way will
just make you blind
All I need is the love
Cuz I can never have
enough of that
You don’t have to
try to be the man
When you the man
See I’m embedded
And your fifteen minutes
are almost up
Socialite
I wish you would roll up
Don’t try me
I’m not like him
Not like them
I wish you would roll up
I’m not him
I’m not like them
Don’t try me
I’m not better than that
Form of flattery
You say he sound like me
You say they sound like me
I don’t need another whip
A nigga flyin’ now
I see you in the shadow
In motion without a paddle
Stop acting like a girlfriend
Stop acting like a freshman
If you’re surprised
you’re here
It means you
shouldn’t be here
No heart no glory
No pain no fear
It’s one thing to be hot
But that don’t
make it a career
I’m embedded
And your fifteen minutes
are almost up
I wish you would roll up
Don’t try me
I’m not like him
Not like them
I wish you would roll up
I’m not him
I’m not like them
Don’t try me
I’m not better than that
But I appreciate
the form of flattery
Appreciate the form
of flattery

form of flattery
