Laugh About It Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You made me take a look at me
At all the flaws and what could be

And all the things that you would reap
Was hidden in me, I didn't wanna see, what was troublin me

[Interlude]
You brought your sledgehammer, comin down with the BOOM
I mean I fell in love, cause I'm inside of you
I mean I love your heart, but it's your mind if I had to choose
You're smilin at me smokin, but you are not amused

[Hook]
Someday I'll laugh about it
All that pressure stashed behind it

Couldn't it last like that? I doubt it
But c'mon girl, let's laugh about it

[Repeat Hook]

[Verse 2]
The way you see the world is neat
You're in the sun and cloudy peaks
Please be my friend, oh would you please?
But you're still on the move, smoke comin from your shoes
Meanwhile I'm still bruised
[Interlude] + [Hook]

[Verse 3]
Let's just have a blast about it (ohh, some day)
Couldn't never found our paths without it (laugh about it)
All the bullshit that surrounds it (ohh, some day)
Let's just have a laugh about it (laugh about it)
And I can never lose those memories
Because you're screamin from the clouds, goin out
The color from those painted these melodies
In fact I'm dreamin 'bout it now, UHH~!

[Breakdown: Pharrell & Shay Haley]
Girl no! (Ay, you need to rethink this)
Girl no! (I mean, we been through too much)
Girl no! (And our friendship means everything)
(You know we can't take that much time) Girl no!
(But I can't stop us from bein friends)

[Hook] with ad libs
