Dance For Me Lyrics - Singles - Cunninlynguists

[Hook: Sample] 

"Dance for me" someone said 

Emily shakes her head 

Knowingly, gracefully 

Emily would begin 

[Verse 1: Deacon the Villain] 

She was a late bloomer, from Penny to Janet in a blink 

Dreamt 'bout being Josephine Baker in the mink 

Gold make-up like the Sphinx 

Skin made to view 

Body ornament, performances sensational 

From rhythm relation to titillation through 

Demonstrations of what she's made to do 

She always told me that she wanted to dance 

The only time she felt worthy of romance, damn 

I tried to told her she was worthy a chance 

But it's hard to talk to somebody in a trance 

I just gave her a glance, enough to sang her blues 

Be Pablo to paint her moves, be Langston to name her hues 

"Emily dance for me" someone said, she curtsied and turned her head 

She posed, with knowledge and grace she gave us a taste 

With a look on her face that could be taken for dead 

[Hook] 

[Verse 2: Natti] 

Are we crazy, deranged, to stand up for some change? 

Dreams turn to schemes, which marionette pulls your strings? 

Emily's enemy was Emily, feelin' me? 

She only lusted the heel-toe kick to the symphony 

And now she justified, cryin' rivers for sympathy 

Which in end she finds out is simply misery 

No mystery, her OnStar on destiny's roads 

Ballerina wardrobe glowin' under the strobe 

Twirlin' amongst dollars waitin' under the pole 

For a slightly possible goal sometimes we sell out our soul 

Can't help that, errrbody done felt that 

Just ask your favorite artist whose heart has turned to pitch black 

Ask some of these stars where they lost they sense of self at 

Strictly being puppets in public is a setback 

Yeah fam, that's Emily's energy 

Errrbody's a dancer, I don't view you no differently, so dance 

[Hook] 

"Dance for me" someone said 

Emily shakes her head 

Knowingly, gracefully 

Emily, she begins 

[Outro x6: Kno] 

She makes it rain with her tears
