Call It Like I See It Lyrics
I just call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
Ah, yeah
I just call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
Ah, yeah
[Verse 1: Kendall & Carlos]
Pull up on you, that's an intro
Just can't help it when you look like that
Spinning like a disco, uh
Make me want to make a demo track
Got me feeling like I'm retro
Leave your friends in the friend zone, right?
You can meet me in the end zone, right?
Let's keep it simple, baby
[Bridge: Kendall]
I'm too upfront
But from this point of view
(Pretty from the ground up, up)
Don't wanna say too much
But what you trying to do? Ah, yeah
[Chorus: Logan with Kendall]
I just call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
Ah, yeah
I just call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
Ah, yeah (I do)
Out of this world like satellite
Taking me straight to paradise
Got me up in my feels tonight, feels tonight, feels tonight
Out of this world like satellite
Taking me straight to paradise
Got me up in my feels tonight, feels tonight, feels tonight, yeah
[Verse 2: Logan, James, & All]
You blow my mind (Woah)
This feels like Space X (Space X)
Defying science (Yeah)
Floating out of this universe (Ha)
Love you like I do it for a living
Whenever we're together it's a given (Whenever)
Never hit the pool but still you're drippin' (Stupid)
Don't wanna be rude but I just
[Chorus: Logan with Kendall and Carlos]
Call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
I just call it like I see it
And I'm liking what I'm seeing in you
Ah, yeah (I do)
[Post-Chorus: All & Logan]
Out of this world like satellite (Yeah, yeah)
Taking me straight to paradise
Got me up in my feels tonight, feels tonight, feels tonight
Out of this world like satellite
Taking me straight to paradise
Got me up in my feels tonight, feels tonight, feels tonight (In my feels tonight, yeah)
Call it like I see it, so you know, oh-oh
Come on, ha!
Ooh yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

We all decided to get together for a little writing camp at James’ place in Vegas. We brought Will Ventres (producer) and Dan Burke (Writer) and had a blast hanging out, staying up late, talking about what this new sound could be.
This is a classic example of a song that just felt good. It had a fresh feel and after a few other ideas, we couldn’t stop coming back to it and adding parts.
It was a labor of love and collaboration with our talented friends. Everybody had an important role to play. The majority of the song came up around 2-3am which goes to show there is no “ideal” time to write music.
