“MY SHADOW GOT A SOLO.”

歌词

MY SHADOW GOT A SOLO — BEZBEZ [INTRO — WHISPER / CAMERA CLICKS / LOW BASS] I came alone… But look at the wall. Even my shadow brought somebody. [HOOK — VOCALS FIRST / BEAT ENTERS ON “SOLO”] Lights down low-low, My shadow got a solo. I stop—mine don’t. Tell me that you saw it, though. Move slow, flash photo, Catch me where the glow goes. I came here on my own— Now my shadow won’t go home. [DROP — TRANCE SYNTHS / CHOPPED VOCALS] I stop— Mine don’t. I stop— Mine don’t. Who’s that moving when I won’t? Low-low— So-lo— My shadow won’t go home. [VERSE 1 — HIP-HOP / HALF-TIME BASS] Black tee, white shoes, slipped through the side, Had a whole bad week, left it out with my ride. No booth, no bottles with a sparkler parade, Found a little more room where the blue light fades. Then I saw my silhouette slide to the left, I was standing dead still, nearly spilled on myself. Girl by the speaker said, “You seeing this too?” Her shadow took its jacket off and walked into the room. Now they’re both on the wall doing better than us, Mine spun hers around, whole crowd looked up. She said, “You always let your shadow make your moves?” I said, “Only when it’s got something to prove.” [PRE-CHORUS — R&B / WARM PIANO] Come a little closer, Let the light fall through. There’s a version of me That ain’t scared to dance with you. Let them watch the ceiling, Let them watch the wall. If we stop overthinking, We might catch up after all. [CHORUS — MELODIC / STACKED HARMONIES] Lights down low-low, My shadow got a solo. I stop—mine don’t. Tell me that you saw it, though. Move slow, flash photo, Catch me where the glow goes. I came here on my own— Now my shadow won’t go home. [POST-CHORUS — CALL AND RESPONSE] Who brought the trouble? (My shadow!) Who made it double? (My shadow!) Who’s still dancing when the lights come on? That thing on the wall with my jacket on. [VERSE 2 — HIP-HOP / PLAYFUL, TIGHT DELIVERY] BEZBEZ— Tried to act cool, but the wall told the truth, Mine made a heart when I looked at you. Can’t play mysterious under these lights, Got a twenty-foot snitch giving up my whole life. You laughed so hard that you missed your step, Caught my sleeve, now I’m losing my breath. Said, “Your little friend’s got a lot to say.” I said, “Yeah, usually keep him tucked away.” Now we’re dancing badly, don’t even care, Your hand in mine, blue light in your hair. For the first time tonight, when I look to the side, That shape on the wall moves exactly like mine. [BRIDGE — R&B / DRUMS DISAPPEAR] I almost stayed home, Almost let the night go. Almost missed your face In the flicker of the light show. Funny how the darkest thing That follows me around Was the first to find a little joy And pull me through the crowd. [BUILD — HEARTBEAT KICK / WHISPERED CALLS] Everybody freeze. Watch the wall. Did yours stop? Mine didn’t. [ONE BEAT OF SILENCE] Let it dance. [FINAL DROP — FULL TRANCE / VOCAL CHOPS] I stop— Mine don’t. I stop— Mine don’t. Who’s that moving when I won’t? Low-low— So-lo— My shadow won’t go home. [FINAL CHORUS — FULL VOICE / R&B AD-LIBS] Lights down low-low, My shadow got a solo. I stop—mine don’t. Tell me that you saw it, though. Move slow, flash photo, Catch me where the glow goes. I came here on my own— Now my shadow won’t go home. [OUTRO — MUSIC CUTS / SPOKEN] They found my jacket. They found my phone. My shadow? Still in there.
