🎶 Copy Cat

capo 3



Verse 1
Over my [Bb]shoulder, [E7]eyes peeking in
[Eb]Analyze my every move, what [E7]current state I'm in
'Cause you are [Bb]colder than [E7]ice on my skin
[Eb]Wanna get that A+, baby, [E7]so you take my shit
'Cause I am [Bb]little, right? [E7]I won't call you out
[Eb]Teachers saying you'd get credit, [E7]why would you stop now?
You are so [Bb]desperate, [E7]craving that spotlight
[Eb]Shining on the ones who do that [E7]shit 'cause it's their life

Pre-Chorus
But I [Bb]know the [E7]people [Eb]around [E7]you say
"Just [Bb]do what it [E7]takes to [Eb]make it all the [E7]way"

Chorus
You're a [Bb] copycat
You take it then you leave it
Honey, [E7]just like that, [Eb]just like that
You're [E7]falling flat
You find [Bb]someone like me to bring you [E7]up right back
Upright [Eb]back
[Bb][E7](Copy [Eb][E7]cat, copy [Bb]cat)

Verse 2
Obsessed with [Bb]power, you [E7]want it for yourself
[Eb]Feeding on misogyny
But [E7]still you call yourself a [Bb]feminista
If [E7]that were really true
You [Eb]wouldn't feel as if I were a current threat to [E7]you

Pre-Chorus
But I [Bb]know the [E7]people [Eb]around [E7]you say
"Just [Bb]do what it [E7]takes to [Eb]make it all the [E7]way"

Chorus
You're a [Bb] copycat
You take it then you leave it
Honey, [E7]just like that, [Eb]just like that
You're [E7]falling flat
You find [Bb]someone like me to bring you [E7]up right back
Upright [Eb]back
[Bb][E7](Copy [Eb][E7]cat, copy [Bb]cat)

Verse 3
Find someone [Bb]else to leech on, [E7]lady
My blood's for me, not for you, [Eb]babe
College, estate, and all your [E7]saves
My blood's for me, so no more [Bb]taking

Verse 4
[Bb]Anything you can do, I can do better
[E7]In prison for stealing, gon' write you a letter
[Eb]Courageous and clever, creative director
I raised the bar high, yes sir, I broke the record
[Bb]I'm hot as peppers, my words are in leather
[E7]Scuffed up my boots, boy, I'll stomp you in Sketchers
They wanna build like their first name is Hector
Back against the wall, bitch I am a protector
[Bb]From the projects, don't check on my ex
[E7]Think you're the boss then I'll break broken necks
Wish [Eb]you the best, won't show you my next move
So I [E7]guess you'll be upset
[Bb]Don't cry, no baby, you'll find your own way
Think for yourself, it'll all be [E7]okay
Copy my lyrics, you can't steal my spirit
Deliver my music, they're dying to hear it

Bridge
[Bb]Imitated, never duplicated
You wish you related
You wish you'd have [E7]made it
Imitated, never duplicated
You wish you related
You wish you'd have [Bb]made it

Chorus
You're a [Bb] copycat
You take it then you leave it
Honey, [E7]just like that, [Eb]just like that
You're [E7]falling flat
You find [Bb]someone like me to bring you [E7]up right back
Upright [Eb]back
[Bb][E7](Copy [Eb][E7]cat, copy [Bb]cat)
