[Intro: Salim]
Oh no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Bm
What if I said, love was a lie though
Em
It was more like hate with a eye closed
G
And the other eye had the eye rolled
A
That's contempt and ignorance, I know
Bm
But what do I know?
Em
Only thing that I seen was the inside of a blindfold
G
And you just as blind as me
A
So how I look? Asking you where do I go
Bm
I and eye keep high hope alive though
Em
That loves not a lie it just likes to lie low
G
Likes to hide right there in plain sight
A
And you got to find it with your eyes, closed
Bm
And in the dark, you see the part
Em
Of your partner, that's the heart
G
If you die it's like apartheid
A
We can bring it back to the start
[Hook: Salim]
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Bm Em G A
No, it's not designed to make you feel love
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Oh no, yeah
[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
Bm
On second thought leave apartheid in the grave
Em
But the heart part, that can be saved
G
The hard part's making sure it don't break
A
Into little sharp pieces that are hard to replace
Bm
Hard to find spare arteries these days
Em
In decent shape, and know things decay
G
And at these rates you're gon' need to be paid
A
Like 3D wage just to see D. Wade
Bm
To the place that sells these parts
Em
That you couldn't keep safe from the start
G
So why would we waste our art on your mistake?
A
When you was driving reckless, didn't pump these brakes
Bm
Hate to have to shoot you down
Em
A fine running heart makes a soothing sound
G
It's junkyard love in your future, pal
A
Didn't appreciate it then, bet you do now
[Hook: Salim]
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
(Yeah, yeah, make you feel)
[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Bm
And in the futuristic
Em
Love will be reduced to physics
G
Computer digits made by robots
A
That use statistics, algorithms, and group logistics
Bm
The mood-resistant
Em
Downloadable thing that's used specific
G
Easily updated with few commitments
A
Can find it's way home if you forget it
Bm
Say, maybe on a starship tour
Em
Heard a knock at your starship door
G
It was the girl that you had met at the starship bar
A
Had a dance on the starship floor
Bm
But then you got starship sick
Em
So you had to run to the starship store
G
And then you got those starship pills
A
But when you back she wasn't there no more
Bm
She says, "Hope you got a starsuit at the starship store
Em
Maybe we can take a trip
G
To take a look at the stars around parsec 4"
A
And it was the most beautiful thing
Bm
You both had ever seen in your lives before
Em
And she pulled out her love
G
So you reached down in your starsuit for
A
But your pockets empty, now the moments passing
Bm
It'll probably never happen like this again
Em
I guess it didn't work out for you in the end
[Hook: Salim]
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
Bm Em G A
It's not designed to make you feel that way, now, baby (oh no)
