“Watching Us” Lyrics ^[4]
Song by Wale, Leon Thomas:

Intro: Wale
Yeah, stop a little (Yeah)
Stress a little less
Yes, they looking from afar, but they isn’t, mm
Mm, mm (Closer to my dreams)

Verse 1: Leon Thomas
In my head, I already had you a thousand times
Made me work harder than most, but see, I don’t mind
Before you even realized that you were mine
Your skin been glowing lately
And I know why, mm, why

Pre-Chorus: Leon Thomas
I like the chase too much, you know you play too much
Once I got you in front of me
Knew it wouldn’t take too much
I like the chase too much, you know you play too much
Once I got you in front of me
Knew it wouldn’t take too much

Chorus: Leon Thomas & Wale
Kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Before I was the one
Before you knew what it was
I’m kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Don’t care who’s watching us
Don’t care who’s watching us (Woah)

Verse 2: Wale
Okay, I’m famous, you famous, they seen us, so now what?
Right now, we gotta decide how we feel inside and the outcome
The hard launch, dopamine rush, you know how that go
Now women come to you as a woman until you not sure
But God bless ’em, they cold, wipe they nose, I’m at you
Well, everybody love me on tour, but, girl, that’s not you
The world starin’ at me, they wan’ me talk about you
The finest hypothetical woman I may or may not use
As my muse, my new music truthfully about you
No, we don’t know each other in public, I got you tattooed
Uh, that’s cool, but who would wanna hide you?
The single doin’ numbers, I really wan’ B-side you
Out here, privacy is taboo
It’s different when everybody love you and no one like you
So kiss me in the club, whatever come, I got you
It’s difficult, we really in love, tryna be casual

Chorus: Leon Thomas
Kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Before I was the one
Before you knew what it was
I’m kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Don’t care who’s watching us
Don’t care who’s watching us

Verse 3: Wale
Hol’ up, it’s crowded at Poppy, we should probably get out it
If you stayin’, I’m stayin’ too, I ain’t slidin’ without you
In the Yams with your friends, yeah, I’m jealous, you got it
Thought of blowin’ up your phone, but you already on Collins
F*** it, let’s go to Paris ’cause over there, they ain’t watchin’
I mean I know I ain’t nobody, but I’m no Wembanyama
Now we finally in Lagos, I’ma show you around
We on the way to Obi’s house and when it’s over, to mine
Nothin’ make a man feel better than a woman
Queen with a crown, run around with her nomad
You so bad, let’s go dance, who cares if they know ’bout us
I’m glad you know me, I’m good bein’ down bad, baby

Pre-Chorus: Leon Thomas & Wale
I like the chase too much, you know you play too much
Once I got you in front of me
Knew it wouldn’t take too much (Shee’, drop that motherf*****)
I like the chase too much, you know you play too much (Much)
Once I got you in front of me
Knew it wouldn’t take too much

Chorus: Leon Thomas
Kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Before I was the one
Before you knew what it was
I’m kissing in the club
Like it’s already love
Don’t care who’s watching us
Don’t care who’s watching us

Outro
(Closer to my dreams)
(You know)
