[Verse 1] Curtains drawn, but I still see the plot Your whole crew folds when the kettle get hot Chess on the table, salt on the rim I came in quiet, then the room went dim Pocket full of brass, coin in the palm Old soul grin with a calm little bomb You talk big game, but the seams show quick One wrong step and the whole thing split [Pre-Chorus] Wait for it, wait for it Hear that floorboard talk I been patient, patient Now I make the chalk line walk [Chorus] Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, let it go I got the whole room leaning Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, say my name Drawn curtains, feel the flame When I pull that velvet back Ain't nothing looking the same [Verse 2] Cufflinks shine on a thrift-store shirt I make a little out of hard-case dirt Paper planes fall from the seventh note While the bass line grins and the horns still float Grandma said, "Baby, keep your feet on ground" So I step in time when the crowd come round Every little lie got a paper thin voice Every real one move with a secondhand choice [Pre-Chorus] Wait for it, wait for it Clock hands hit the line I been building, building Now the whole frame shines [Chorus] Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, let it go I got the whole room leaning Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, say my name Drawn curtains, feel the flame When I pull that velvet back Ain't nothing looking the same [Bridge] I seen the fake gold peel Seen the brave ones fold Saw the quiet ones rise With a story told in gold So come close, take a look At the dust and the gloss What was hidden in the dark Comes back with a boss [Final Chorus] Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, let it go I got the whole room leaning Drawn curtains, let it show Drawn curtains, say my name Drawn curtains, feel the flame When I pull that velvet back Ain't nothing looking the same
