Me'Shell Ndegeocello - Eyes Lyrics

We all react to and, to whatever extent, become what that eye sees
We all react to and, to whatever extent, become what that eye sees
(This judgement begins in the eye of ones parents
The crucial, the definitive, the all but everlasting judgment)
Since we all exist (the all but everlasting judgement)
We all exist after all in the vast and claustrophobic gallery of others
We all react to and, but once you have discerned the meaning of a label
What may seem define you for others (what that eye sees)
And so we move have the power to define you for yourself
(But it does not in the vast and claustrophobic gallery of others)

I could tell you were surprised
Did you see yourself
Tell me all those normal lies
They'll be coming down

Eyes, eyes, eyes
They put you in for doing
The same thing they've been doing
You'll pay for it later
They tilt the equator for you

If you look up to that sky
We might see what's due
Try to make me wear disguise
Then I can see myself

Eyes, eyes, eyes
They put me in for screwing
The same thing
They've been screwing
I'll pay for it later
They held the equator for you

They've taken up our lives
Still feels like they have mine
Just give me back my time
Eyes, eyes, eyes
They put me in for doing
The same thing
They've been doing
I'll pay for it later
They held the equator for you

Eyes, eyes, eyes
