LEDISI - Shut Up lyrics

rate me

Stuck in the middle, I can see where I've been

My eyes are open and I know where I'm going

So much is in the way

There are people who like being negative

And they always got something to say

They say you'll never be what you want to be

And that you'll never get what's so far

Ooh, I'm trying hard, gotta hold my tongue

Times like this, I wish I really could say

I wanna tell them shut up, I'm moving up

No time for the haters, working hard to be greater

You need to shut up, I'm climbing up

This is the calling, I don't see myself falling

So shut up

Working hard every day to be noticed

Being fearless while you making your moves

They don't want the best for you

There are people around being jealous

'Cause they wish that they could do what you do

They say you'll never be what you hope to be

And that you'll never shine like the stars

Ooh, you're trying hard, gotta hold your tongue

Times like this, I know you wish you could tell them

Tell them shut up, I'm moving up

No time for the haters, working hard to be greater

They need to shut up, I'm climbing up

This is the calling, I don't see myself falling

So shut up, I'm moving up

No time for the haters, working hard to be greater

They need to shut up, I'm climbing up

This is the calling, I don't see myself falling

So shut up

Please forgive me, I don't mean to be rude

This is not my normal behavior

When people say them things

To knock me off my brains

I can't help it, gotta tell them

Shut up, I'm moving up

No time for the haters, working hard to be greater

They need to shut up, I'm climbing up

This is the calling, I don't see myself falling

So shut up, I'm moving up

No time for the haters, working hard to be greater

They need to shut up, I'm climbing up

This is the calling, I don't see myself falling

So shut up

Shut up, shut up

This is real

So shut up
