Running Out of Time lyrics
by Home Brew
[Hook]
Seven days a week, the man got me on the grind now
Doin' overtime, ain't got no time to rhyme now
Don't believe in myself no more, I'm poppin' a cap again
Stopped but I'm back again
Thought I could've been someone, I don't see that happening
Feelin' crap again now
Man, I'm runnin' outta time
[Verse 1]
Oh man, another day of this crap
Every day of the week I'm waking up pitch black
That's why I need to get lifted like I was Chris Jack
Runnin' this race for the cheese like a whipped rat
All for minimum wage, man, if that
I gotta lick crack, sh*t bricks and lift stacks
While some rich chap sips Cris' and sits back
I'm geting b*tch slapped, pushed round and spit at
Like they're the Big Mac, and I'm the Tic Tac
But, еven though I know my present isn't gift-wrappеd
There ain't no way that you could distract this cat
See I eat, breathe and sh*t rap
Even my heart beats "badum badum tss clap"
So when I'm feeling kinda dark like Hitchc*ck
Dark kinda like the dresscode of Slipknot
I stay alive for my love of Hip Hop
But still, sometimes I'm like "what if not?"
[Hook]
Seven days a week, the man got me on the grind now
Doin' overtime, ain't got no time to rhyme now
Don't believe in myself no more, I'm poppin' a cap again
Stopped but I'm back again
Thought I could've been someone, I don't see that happening
Feelin' crap again now
Man, I'm runnin' outta time
Man, I'm runnin' outta time
[Verse 2]
Na, forget it, man, there's no hope, I quit, Im so broke
I'd sooner win the America's cup with a rowboat
Than go gold with a song that I co-wrote
It's hard to say it but it's my own fault
I listen to old folk, were my problems solved?
Nope, only way they are is "gulp, gulp, gulp!"
I drink a whole load of Beam with no Coke
Tequila with no salt, guarantee I won't choke
But still, I can't hold a job like I hold notes
Or control my life and be a grown bloke
I thought maybe I'd escape if I sold dope
But that don't work, unless you don't smoke
And now I'm sitting here p*ssed, feelin' ripped off
Had a chance to blow and missed lift off
Now I won't ever be a big shot
[?] f*ck alone bro, get lost
[Hook]
Seven days a week, the man got me on the grind now
Doin' overtime, ain't got no time to rhyme now
Don't believe in myself no more, I'm poppin' a cap again
Stopped but I'm back again
Thought I could've been someone, I don't see that happening
Feelin' crap again now
Man, I'm runnin' outta time
'Cause I'm runnin' outta time
