In The Mean Time Lyrics – Delon Ellis
Singer: Delon Ellis
Title: In The Mean Time
This is plan a, already been through plan b
Didn’t want that, honestly it just ain’t me
Was a fall back couldn’t see to plan c
Always saw past what i didn’t want to be
But i had to have something in the mean time, even though i knew it really didn’t feel right
And my family said they really couldn’t see why, i left it all, keep telling me to be wise
Working off passion, that be without question
Ain’t claiming no talent, i work on this endless
I made it a habit, turned to obsession
Stuck in a bracket, i had to digress
Put words into action, had to finesse it
I picked up the traction, learned by no lessons
The money been absent, ain’t talking no flexing
Ain’t counting my dollars i’m counting my blessings
Every spare dollar that i ever made, put a studio space at my mommas place
Learned the whole game like it be a trade, writing through the night, working in the day
Had a far sight vision that i had to aim, gotta keep my heart driven putting on my name
Going hard from a distance, hard to keep it all persistent when no body wanna listen, ain’t no body f#cking with it, feeling silly n#gg#
Put my money where my mouth is i couldn’t buy a grill so i went and bought a mic to record what i write
Sick of coming up short, sick of wanting way more, sick of working like a slave, making someone less poor
Sick of sacrificing time, give it back take your job
That be all we really got, they ain’t taking none of mine
Got a vision of my life, i’m addicted to the grind
Had the stars all align, how i knew i got to shine
In the mean time i gotta be broke (be broke)
In the mean time i gotta keep woke (keep woke)
In the mean time i gotta see the green light i know i gotta keep focused (god damn i know)
In the mean time i gotta keep hoping (keep hoping)
In the mean time i gotta be potent (be potent)
In the mean time i gotta be the mean guy i know i gotta keep flowing (god damn i know)
Put the pain to paper, felt the rain the break up
Vented out through a couple pads
Had to change my way up, in the game or stay stuck, doubled down just to run it back
Made my lane, i paved up my terrain this ain’t luck, since a child ain’t believe in that
Don’t want no fame cos fake love be what’s aimed i can’t trust, what they say cos it be all cap
But i got my raps perfected, when i snap it’s endless
Just a fraction of my max would have you clap tremendous
I ain’t playing like i ain’t about to smash some records
Be the greatest i be talking future past or present
Done my laps, invested in my craft, projected number one draft i ain’t gotta act respected
Planed attack, iv penned it, now it’s class in session
Come with everything they lack, why i ain’t back at second
But it’s hard to see hope when the dream it ain’t paying yet
Hard to be told what i believe ain’t making sense
Hard to see a road when i’m the only one paving it
Hard to leave a zone when i be focused on taking steps
Pardon me i know i gotta be low for a minute (for a minute)
I know i gotta revoke for a minute (for a minute)
I know i gotta devote what i’m feeling
Pardon me i know i gotta be broke for a minute, i know
In the mean time i gotta be broke (be broke)
In the mean time i gotta keep woke (keep woke)
In the mean time i gotta see the green light i know i gotta keep focused (god dam i know)
In the mean time i gotta keep hoping (keep hoping)
In the mean time i gotta be potent (be potent)
In the mean time i gotta be the mean guy i know i gotta keep flowing (god damn i know)
