Elbow Room - LMNO
Elbow room
I need some elbow room
With all this ambition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
There's groups a lot
With demos to shop
Like they're the Bedos
But they're not
Wake up from the dream
Go back to school
Get an education
An occupation
Can't chase a dead cat
Can't get too far on a bike
If the tires are flat
You have a homie
Who has a cousin
Who used to cut the hair of
An intern at a label
Who says he's able to pass
A word to his boss
Yeah it's a lead but his boss
Doesn't know his first name
Perpetration is the game
It's that
I'm ahead of you kid
Big Busy Mad Child
God showed me I don't fit
In the scheme of things
At the most I rock a chain
And my wedding ring
We're all different
From one another
Beyond color
The mystery has been uncovered
Elbow room
I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
Come on
Elbow room I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
Prevent the mistake is how I think
You better fix the leak
Before the boat sinks
Labels put money in to
Get money back
Turn around and blame the public
When the group is wack
Point blank I'm stating the fact
I'm cutting down the rubbish
With my battle axe
I see why people think rap is trash
A song is garbage if it's all about cash
I understand survival is key
But where will you be
When there's no more money
Blank and empty unfulfilled
For me it's allmighty God;
Not the dollar bill
I wasn't born with the crew;
I won't die with the crew
I can't be frustrated
I can just pray for you
If your flesh wants to rap
But your spirit says no
I suggest you listen to the spirit
Grow and grow
Elbow room I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
Come on
Elbow room I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
If rap is your calling it must
Have been a crank call
Get some caller ID
So you know where
It's coming from
Before you pick it up and
Waste a bunch of time
On the phone
Speaking on my behalf
Every waking second
Is self-examination
Constantly facing
Where can I improve
According to spiritual law
As a man of flesh
As a man of flaw
Can't do it without you Lord
I'm a co-dependent
You know my heart
And whether I meant it
Man's more concerned
With pleasing man
Before pleasing You
We can say what you want
But we know it's true
Yes this is message music
Speaking to those who abuse it
Mess around and lose it
Everything we do is recorded
Hell is the price of sin;
I can't afford it No
Elbow room I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
Come on
Elbow room I need some elbow room
With all this opposition
I need elbow room
You know what time it is
But you won't look at the clock
You want to keep going
When you know you should stop
You want to keep rapping
When you know you should stop
You want to keep graphing
When you know you should stop
You want to keep scratching
When you know you should stop
You want to keep dancing
When you know you should stop
You want to keep bashing
When you know you should stop
You want to keep amping
When you know you should stop
