Shade

[Verse 1]
I wonder if it's cold, sitting up there on your high horse
Giving out opinions that nobody asked for
Thank God we've got you around to keep us all straight
You play it off as good advice, you play it off as help
But you just can't be happy for anybody else
You think you're qualified to tell me if I've got what it takes

[Chorus]
But I can grow in the shade
And the backhanded compliments that you're throwing my way
And all your lack of confidence just motivates me, baby
Oh, I'm not phased by your wind and your rain
I'm not gonna change 'cause I've got what it takes
To grow in the shade

[Verse 2]
I'm a big girl, I can make my own sunshine
Don't need to explain, just tryna have a good time
And you can join the party, but if you don't want to

[Chorus]
Then I can grow in thе shade
And the backhanded complimеnts that you're throwing my way
And all your lack of confidence just motivates me, baby
Oh, I'm not phased by your wind and your rain
I'm not gonna change 'cause I've got what it takes
To grow in the shade

[Chorus]
Then I can grow in the shade
And the backhanded compliments that you're throwing my way
And all your lack of confidence just motivates me, baby
Oh, I'm not phased by the backhanded compliments that you're throwing my way
And all your lack of confidence just motivates me, baby
Go ahead, I'm not phased by your wind and your rain
I'm not gonna change 'cause I've got what it takes
To grow in the shade
