PIECE OF TIME

My baby left me.
She broke up my heart just like a candle that gets snuffed in the dark.
My car is busted.
My back tire is flat.
Ain’t got no shoes.
i got a hole in my hat.
Ain’t got no money.
My rent’s overdue.
i should be prayin’ but god hates me too.

i said, hey, give me some time and i swear I’ll make this world better.
Hey, just give me a piece of time and i swear that I’ll make it get better.

i got some music, it’s chocolate and blue.
Can’t get it out until i give it to you.
Forget your money baby.
Forget your skin.
i got somethin’ bigger we can all swim in.

i said, hey, give me some time and i swear that I’ll make it get better.
Give me a piece of time and i swear that I’ll make this world better.

i said hey, here we go again, i said he, here we go again.
Hey, now, give me some time and i swear that I’ll make it get better.
Give me a piece of time and i swear that I’ll make it get better.
