"Throwing Shade" lyrics

The loudest boos from the cheapest seats
(Funny how that works)
Sit back and watch so they can critique
They see success and they want a piece
(They try to take a piece)
But never put in the elbow grease
So sorry to say, they will be watching the moves that you make
Pray for the moment you make a mistake
While they sit on their ass and they laugh in your face
Always something to say, yeah
I guess it's true that you can never fall if you don't ever try to fly at all

Oh my, anything to dim your light
They go low so we go high, no lie
Just look and find the reason why
They can't do a thing with their own damn life
Oh nah nah nah nah, hey
No matter how they try
Oh nah nah nah nah, hey
Throwing shade never make them shine

The ones with the most to say, normally doing the least
Walking dead a run wild, while the woke ones fast asleep
Feel like the end is near, though the work far from complete
Demons collaborate while the angels still compete
Still I pray for everybody while I write this verse in the lobby
Rich or poor, dark or light, everybody deserve to be happy
You don't have a clue what anybody going through
You don't have nothing good to say just stay mute

Oh my, anything to dim your light
They go low so we go high, no lie
Just look and find the reason why
They can't do a thing with their own fucking life
Oh nah nah nah nah, hey
No matter how they try
Oh nah nah nah nah, hey
'Cause throwing shade won't make you shine
