| [00:08.74] |
They're knockin' on my door |
| [00:10.69] |
telling me they want more |
| [00:13.01] |
Hold on, hold on. |
| [00:17.04] |
They're bangin' on my window |
| [00:19.98] |
telling me it's been too long |
| [00:23.70] |
Hold on, yea. |
| [00:27.91] |
telling me they want more. |
| [00:30.55] |
They said they're looking for somethin' new |
| [00:32.28] |
I gotcha. Give me 6 months, and I'll hook you up proper. |
| [00:34.89] |
Something hotter than the biggie who shot you. |
| [00:37.27] |
Watch out, I boiled it up like lobsters. |
| [00:39.55] |
They get impatient, like waiting at the doctor's |
| [00:41.50] |
office, craving good music like oxy-Gen |
| [00:44.00] |
but please understand, I'm trying to break out of this box I'm in. |
| [00:47.76] |
I'm not stopping 'til I get to ten |
| [00:49.77] |
It's gotta be flame when that paper hits my pen. |
| [00:51.93] |
Forget hits, I ain't worried if it hits a trend |
| [00:54.04] |
We start a new one, watch them stop listening. |
| [00:56.25] |
Yea, but 'til then, I got people that are ready |
| [00:58.57] |
Knockin' on my door, saying “Hurry up already!” |
| [01:00.74] |
It takes time, so here's the appetizer, |
| [01:02.69] |
To whet your appetite, bon appetit! |
| [01:04.25] |
They're knockin' on my door, telling me they want more: |
| [01:08.72] |
Hold on (wait, I'm not ready yet), hold on (no, I'm not ready yet). |
| [01:13.60] |
They're bangin' on my window, telling me it's been too long: |
| [01:18.25] |
(Wait, I'm not ready yet) Hold on (no, I'm not ready yet). |
| [01:25.57] |
Hold on. |
| [01:26.86] |
Yea, it's the return of the—hold up |
| [01:28.79] |
I've never been promoted, how could I blow up. |
| [01:30.61] |
I come from a place where they call pop soda |
| [01:32.85] |
Starts with an “m”, and it's not Minnesota, |
| [01:34.91] |
Moved to the south where it gets less colder. |
| [01:36.96] |
And record labels tell you it's all about quotas |
| [01:39.13] |
Well, my vote is that we all take notice of the |
| [01:41.58] |
fact that nobody knows what to do. |
| [01:43.22] |
Oh, but a few people in my corner said keep pushing |
| [01:45.65] |
People out there want more, and they're looking |
| [01:48.09] |
for good music, well, let me get them cookin'. |
| [01:50.18] |
I even got attention out of Brooklyn |
| [01:52.28] |
But that didn't pan out like mono. |
| [01:54.27] |
Haven't found what I'm looking for like Bono |
| [01:56.37] |
Put on my charm like Alyssa Milano |
| [01:58.52] |
Hit these high notes like sopranos. |
| [02:17.02] |
They're knockin' on my door, telling me they want more. |
| [02:21.54] |
I know what it feels like, |
| [02:24.80] |
to be on that shelf, like |
| [02:26.39] |
everybody's passing you by, by. |
| [02:30.52] |
I keep wishing they would notice |
| [02:32.69] |
but it seems so hopeless |
| [02:34.86] |
no matter how hard you try! |
| [02:38.49] |
This world will try to shake you |
| [02:41.26] |
Mold you and then break you, |
| [02:43.38] |
they ain't worried 'bout your soul, soul. |
| [02:47.88] |
Lock that door and bolt it, |
| [02:49.89] |
tell them to move on, cause |
| [02:52.00] |
what we've got is worth waiting for! |
| [03:30.75] |
They're knockin' on my door, telling me they want more |
