It's a Shame...

I'm the one you really want, but you just can't see it
I tried and tried to make you understand - won't believe it
It's a shame...
You missing out on a good thing,
It's a shame...
You can't see a damn thing.
What you so scared of me for?
I'm just a woman
Maybe I got it all together like you think maybe I do!
'Cause yo I'm fresh and cool!

I can fend on my own, I'm magnificent
I'm a Queen on my throne, I'm magnificent
I'm the magnificent (Say what? Say what?)
I'm the magnificent

Your standing against the wall
Baby why you frontin',
When you can take my hand and we can get into something
It's a shame...
You're missing out, on me
And it's a shame...
You don't even know my name

I can fend on my own, I'm magnificent
I'm a Queen on my throne, I'm magnificent
I'm the magnificent (Say what? Say what?)
I'm the magnificent
I'm your sunshine, and your rain
My heart, it doesn't tire, my love remains
Why you can't see me? Why you playing?
I'm just saying! I'm just saying!

I'm the magnificent with the sensational style
Yes! Check her head to toe don't forget the smile
Blessed! If you were smart you would try to snatch it up
Movin' like a snail when you 'gon catch up
Be on it 'cause I'm bored laughin' 'cause you just a clown now
Ain't worthy of the Queen papi bow down
Really bow out, how does that sound?
Had a chance in the past fall back now
I mean way back, like disappear
I see through all of you and it's so clear
And I'm so good, how you so wack?
How you let this get away you 'gon regret that
Shorty so live, from the 2-1-5
And you was too late now I'm sayin' bye bye

And it's a shame
It's a shame!
And it's a shame! (Shame! Shame! Shame! )
You're missing out, on me
And it's a shame!
You can't see a damn thang, uh huh!...
