Give Me Sometime (Patience)

[Start 00:15]

Life, slowly ticking away

dreams, slowly fading away

 

[00:29]

(Hook)

Just gimme sometime please....

just one more try, just one more time

have some faith in my lines

see the pain in my eyes

demons buried inside, no exorcism could fight

 

[00:52]

[verse 1]

I gotta do it for my momma and my brother,

brothers undercover and they slaving

for the butter and the rice

Caribbean life ain't all nice

unless you came in from the U.S.

you aint know 'bout going to school

and being motherfucking shoeless

gotchyou feelin' like a nudist

cause this poverty is real

and all our Governments are greedy

only in it for the cheese and doing what they fucking feel

and its wrong....but i'll continue with my song

I gotta make it dawg, make it large be in charge

who's the man? I'm the man

I wanna be the one they look up to,

say that they believed in all my dreams and aspirations too....

So imma chase my dreams

 

(Hook) x2

Just gimme sometime please....

just one more try, just one more time

have some faith in my lines

see the pain in my eyes

demons buried inside, no exorcism could fight

but you wont take me tonight

[Verse 2]

I like to think I grow some wings an up and fly from here,

but doing so ain't only hurting me, its hurting them

cause they expected more from me.....I abandoned them

I'm like their Superman this fight is kryptonite

battle in my crib tonight, blood tears and lonely nights,

scratching paper feeds my ego, feeds my evil, feeds my people

hope one day my hard-work pays-off and i'm fucking stacked with c-notes

give back to the people who inspired mama raised me up

buy her cars and jewelry houses....it wont be enough

Just gimme sometime please....

just one more try, just one more time

have some faith in my lines

demons buried inside, no exorcism could fight

but you wont take me tonight
