Spaceman Lyrics

Give me a break 'cause I'm working harder

Than all of these boys who came in as starters

I give 'em my best, and I need to barter

Give up my days, what am I apart of?

Clock in everyday, I'm doing my part

I give it my all, I do it with heart

But get no return, my lesson is learned

Speed is the key, don't care if you're smart

Not making records, you ain't doing enough

If you're not hurting, you ain't good enough (Yep)

Quantities low, well, sorry, that's tough

The better you are, the more it gets rough

You carry the team, but you still are the runt

All eyes on you like publicity stunt

They pick you apart, you're the prey in the hunt

They pick you apart, and they pray for the hunt

Back up, back up, give me some space

No need to come and get right in my face

Quality comes when you got the pace

You give me some clay and I'll make it a vase

Slow down, man, this ain't a race

And if it was, you're not first place

You don't take the time to tie up your lace

You fall at the start, end up a disgrace (You lose)

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

I want respect over the check

You want the whole world, but they think you a speck

You climbing too high, you're breaking your neck

The more you go up, the harder you wreck (Errr)

Fancy clothes and the new whips

They ain't shit 'cause the pain's rich

Getting faded 'cause I'm anguished

Not fitting right, I need a new niche

Surrounded by people who want my time

Don't want my skill, my humor, my mind

Don't care 'bout life or if I'm fine

The bread is the batter, they won't give a dime

No salary can bring back what I lost

Why do people only care about the cost?

Go the farthest, but you still lost

No cold shoulder, but I feel the frost (Brrr)

Back up, back up, give me some space

No need to come and get right in my face

Quality comes when you got the pace

You give me some clay and I'll make it a vase

Slow down, man, this ain't a race

And if it was, you're not first place

You don't take the time to tie up your lace

You fall at the start, end up a disgrace (You lose)

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

The pressure and power plays

Making me feel like I'm in a daze (Daze, daze)

Nothing's specific, there's always a haze

Never enough, you never get praise (Praise)

Everything seems like a blur

Everyone tries to whip up a stir

At a dead end, there's nowhere to turn

Feel like you're stuck, you hope for a cure

Tryna put my life into place

Pick up the piece, put it back into shape

I'm tired of walking in the same place

My eyes are blinded, they're covered in mace

Get out of my hair, you're acting like lice

I signed the paper, and I paid the price

Making me feel like I never sufficed

Now, I'm taking a chance, and I'm rolling the dice

(Roll that shit)

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space

Give me space, man, give me space
