Something’s got to give man something’s got to change
I’ve been swinging at this tree so long that something’s got to break
The leaves and limbs have gotten trimmed the trunk is chopped away
All I need is just a gust of wind to take this shit away
Time is running out but I guess that’s always been
How many losses must I take before I catch a fucking win
The world around me’s shrinking see the walls are closing in
They say good things will come to those who wait… till when?
Idiots are getting rich I’m sitting on the bench
Waiting for the coach to call me but he hasn’t done it since
The universe be clowning why it always testing me
You see I’m done playing the games I’m the fucking referee
The dues have been paid, I’ve settled my debts
Now it’s time to get that money, I’ve came to collect
Oh you want something else from me better get it correct
The only thing you’ll get from me’s pen now give me a check
I’m through bitch I’m taking what’s mine
You can rain all you want but the sun’ll still shine
I am backed by will and diligence I stick to the grind
You settled early while I’ve barely just begun in my prime
Return to the core not enough I need more
If opportunity is knocking just come in the fucking door
I left that shit unlocked in case it shows up while I’m gone
Cause I went to out get what’s mine and I’ll be back before long
