Songtext zu 'Surface' von Etta Bond

Yeah, you're pretty but show me what's beneath your surface
I wanna know ya
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya

Tell me all about your purpose
And where you plan to grow to
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya

You're like no one that I've ever seen
Front page cover of a magazine
But my mama told me nothing's really ever as it seems
Nothing's really ever as it seems

You're like no one that I've ever seen
Front page cover of a magazine
But my mama told me nothing's really ever as it seems
Nothing's really ever as it seems

Yeah, you're pretty but show me what's beneath your surface
I wanna know ya
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya

Tell me all about your purpose
And where you plan to grow to
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya

Seem like something straight out of a dream
But there's always
Something hiding underneath
If you wanna tell me baby, you can open up to me

Baby, you can open up to me
Seem like something straight out of a dream
But there's always
Something hiding underneath

If you wanna tell me baby, you can open up to me
Baby, you can open up to me
Yeah, you're pretty but show me what's beneath your surface
I wanna know ya

I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya
Tell me all about your purpose
And where you plan to grow to

I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya
You can't hide yourself forever, baby
All those likes don't mean nothing

They'll find out one day
You can't hide yourself forever, baby
All those likes don't mean a thing
Nothing really ever as it seems

Never, never, never
Told your mummy hi
She ain't never lied
Ghosting like a poltergeist
Tryna pick my moments right, yeah

Always moaning but you grown this time
Say, we was young back then but swear you've grown with time
Wait there, wait there
Hey there, stay there
Wait and see

You just barely scratched the surface girl, I'm way too deep
Heard you put that work in, I just came to see
Fighting all your urges baby, c'est la vie
I don't wanna tell you how much you deserve this

I need to show you
They gon' find out what we do behind them curtains
I been ready, I'm just checking if you're certain
You're certain now

I know they're all lurking around
I know they're all lurking
Say that you don't miss me but I hear that kitty purring
See beyond your surface like a surgeon, I'm lurkin'

But show me what's beneath your surface
I wanna know ya
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya

Tell me all about your purpose
And where you plan to grow to
I don't need to check the gram, I'm the one that took the photo
They want you as their man but they don't even know ya
