Will Smith - Wave Em Off Lyrics

Artist: Will Smith

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: L. Bennett, Duke Ellington, Raymond Grant, Richard Grant, Omar Lambert, Willard C. Smith, Juan Tizol

From a distance, you can witness the glow from my entourage
Gravitate towards the ambiance
See me and my men on CNN
Then the birth of the inevitable hate begin

'Cause hate is the child to greatness
The glue between Neo and the Smiths in the matrix
Yin to the yang, it just must be
Ask anybody with a Grammy or an MVP

I said, "Stop, get out
I don't need this hate around me
All your negativity might drown me
I just try to go hard, doing my job"

Stop, get out
The whole world loves me 'cause I do what I do
And I don't like the energy coming from you
Trying to play me soft, wave em off

(I just wave em off, yeah)
I ain't concerned with your hatin' that don't slow down my paper makin'
(Wave em off, yeah)
While the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes

(Wave em off yeah)
Love me, I paved the way, boys we can't behave this way come on
(Wave em off, yeah)
And while the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes

Coming of age I invaded nations on stage
I seen Haitian and Asian faces
No vacations just more locations
I go places, so chasing my vocation

So demonstrating the way to be patient with lifes' test
Through my IRS situations
My guess is my dedication don't phase ya
A public sensation, in private you hatin'

Why? That's so last year, that's so not sexy
But I shall not let the hate stress me
I got bigger fish to fry, I could stand on my wallet
Probably kiss the sky

When I close my eyes
I wish that I could change how you get pissed
When I do things you can't deny
Truth is, 'Great do need hate to survive'

(So I wave em off, yeah)
I ain't concerned with your hatin' that don't slow down my paper makin'
(Wave em off, yeah)
While the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes

(Wave em off yeah)
Love me, I paved the way, boys we can't behave this way come on
(Wave em off, yeah)
And while the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes

Block 'em out, ignore 'em, wave em off
Don't pay these jokers no mind, wave em off
They just all mad, 'cause they in the coat section of the hate train
And they can't get off

Still flaming boy, stand clear of the hatin' is the best defense
Tryin' to exceed excellence
Same way hope comes with fear, yo
Greatness lives here, then 'hateness' lives here, trust

I said, "Stop, get out
I don't need this hate around me
All your negativity might drown me
I just try to go hard, doing my job"

Stop, get out
The whole world loves me 'cause I do what I do
And I don't like the energy coming from you
Trying to play me soft, wave em off

(I just wave em off, yeah)
I ain't concerned with your hatin' that don't slow down my paper makin'
(Wave em off, yeah)
While the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes

(Wave em off yeah)
Love me, I paved the way, boys we can't behave this way come on
(Wave em off, yeah)
And while the whole world recognize
You looking at me with your crooked eyes
