Lyrics

(Hold On)... Just a little more time Can't you feel it, smell it, taste it It'll be worth your while It's meaningful, It's meaningful. Rise and shine Nine to five You better kiss up If you want to have a life When you're sixty-five You'll be satisfied... (Hold On). Tic-Toc goes the clock I wish I could stay and talk about time But I've got to run It's not enough To get every thing done (That's Ok)... Tomorrow It'll be my day I've done my share of time Watching others celebrating Their success Where's my success? Take a look into your life Are you truly satisfied It's it time to take control... (Hold On). There's that check That bittersweet check I've been waiting all month just to pay the rent Then there's nothing left What the hell did I expect So you pray nothingleft to do but pray Only God doesn't discriminate One parasite from the next So it's up to us To get rid of the worst. Power used to violate And power used to desecrate Is it time to take control, control We're out of control... oh controoooool We're out of control. One time, Two times, Three times They've stomped over us Four times, Five times, Six times They've stomped over us And they can't stomp over any of us any more Cause they've done it too much And we can't take it no more Till we put up a fight You better run, you better hide You better pray for your life. Take a look into your life Are you truly satisfied It's it time to take control, control We're out of control... oh controoool We're out of control... control! We're out of control... oh controoool We're out of control.
