Form of Flattery lyrics

[Intro]
Down, down
Down, down
Hmm-oh
Hmm-oh
Down, down
Hmm-oh

[Verse 1]
I'm sorry, I can't need your approval, so please keep the handclaps
No need for a compliment, I can pat myself on the back
No dying for an award, you can keep the trophy
I could really care less whether any of y'all motherf*ckers know me
'Scuse my French, pardon me, I don't mean to steal your shine
Man, I'll be in the sun for so long, looking my way'll just make you blind
All I need is the love, 'cause I can never have enough of that
You don't have to try to be the man when you the man, see?

[Chorus]
I'm embedded
And your fifteen minutes are almost up
Socialite
I wish you would roll up
(Ah me, oh yeah) Don't try me
I'm not like him, not like them
I wish you would roll up
(Ah me, oh yeah) I'm not him
I'm not like them, don't try me
I'm not better than that (No, oh)
[Post-Hook]
Form of flattery
You say he sound like me
You say they sound like me

[Verse 2]
I—I—I don't need another whip (Mm)
A n*gga flyin' now (Mm)
I see you in the shadow
In my ocean without a paddle
Stop acting like a girlfriend
Stop acting like a freshman
If you're surprised you're here
That means you shouldn't be here
No heart, no glory
No pain, no fear
It's one thing to be hot
But that don't make it a career
I'm...

[Chorus]
I'm embedded
And your fifteen minutes are almost up
I wish you would roll up
(Ah me, oh yeah) Don't try me
I'm not like him, not like them
I wish you would roll up
(Ah me, oh yeah) I'm not him
I'm not like them, don't try me
I'm not better than that (No, oh)
[Outro]
But I appreciate the form of flattery (Tick, tock)
Oh, no
I appreciate the form of flattery (Tick, tock)
Mm, oh-oh
(Ah me, oh yeah)
Down, down
(Ah me, oh yeah)
Down, down
(Whoa, ah, ah)
Ah-ah-ah
Form of flattery, yeah, ah, oh, oh
The form of flattery
There's no better than feeling than this
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah (Form of flattery)
Form of flattery, oh
(Down, ah)
