Lyrics Born - Shake It Off Lyrics

[Lyrics Born, spoken]
Man I keep having these nightmares
Won't leave me alone
I can't get a good night's sleep for the life of me
It's just so much drama
personal - professional - in the world
I need your help
Help deliver me from these
Hear me out, now

[Lyrics Born]
My woman left me out to twist in the wind
She just left on a whim
And ain't nothin I can do about it
She left me with a fistfull of bills
Not a crisp dollar bill
What the hell am I gon' do about it
We had our differences but I can't believe
This is how she would leave
We ain't even get to speak about it
Eleven minutes, seven hours and a week
That's when I was last asleep
It's When she left me, come to think about it

[Lyrics Born (Joyo Velarde): x2]
One time (Shake it off)
Two times (Shake it off)
Three times (Shake it off)
(These bad dreams)

[Lyrics Born]
The other night ago the boss called me late
Wants to talk bout some thangs
Monday morning come and see about it
I feel it y'all my job's about to go
Feelin throbs in my skull
Oh my god i couldn't sleep about it
He told be lately that I'm lost on my tracks
Gonna cost me my job
Is there something we can do about it?
This motherf*cker's got the balls to complain
After all that I gave
Said do what you gotta do about it

[Lyrics Born (Joyo Velarde): x4]
One time (Shake it off)
Two times (Shake it off)
Three times (Shake it off)
(These bad dreams)

[Joyo Velarde: x2]
Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
Pray the lord my soul to take

[scratching: Joyo Velarde]
"One...Two...Three..."
"One...Two...Three..."
"One...Two...Three..."(these bad dreams)
"One...Two...Three..."(these bad dreams)

[Lyrics Born]
Every night I toss and turn in my sleep
And it hurts when I breathe
And I'm gettin a little worried bout it
The combination of the stress and the strain
I ain't slept now for days
And I just can't get my head around it
With all the drama in the world that we live
Will we learn how to give?
I can't sit back and do nuttin bout it
I wanna know whatever happened to love
And compassion and drugs
'Cause it seem like we forgot about it

[Lyrics Born (Joyo Velarde): x4]

One time (Shake it off)
Two times (Shake it off)
Three times (Shake it off)
(These bad dreams)
