Gas Gauge (the World's In Your Hands)

Spearhead

At days arrival one man at the table eatin' corn flakes



checkin out the paper his brother walks in from a hard nights caper



half hungover and looking for his pager



what's in the news today did we find a saviour



Nah I'm just looking for some part time labor



by the way did you remember put the gas in my ride



or must I remind ya how I lost my last job



chill with all that chatter ya know ya need to stall



trust me baby bro that's what big brotha's for uh uh



I got interviews today so don't even front about my broken gas gauge



by the way things are looking it's a very good day



If I could ever find my wallet I'll be on my way



bigger brotha steps to his girlfriends place



just then the phone rings and it was moms to say



remind ya big brotha it's your cousin's birthday



and I'ma need a half dozen eggs for the cake



No problem moms I'll tell him later in the day



but now I can't find my wallet gotta go I'm late




(Chorus)



The world's in your hands don't waste...



don't waste your time




Back to the saga the car wouldn't start up JJJJhhhh..JJJJhhhh



there he goes now he's rolling like a baller



out of the city and into the woods



for a job with a hammer where the pay is good



reaches in the back seat for his favorite tape



uuuh a condom from his brotha's last date



damn my lazy no good brotha and just as he says it



the car starts to sputter and sputter



until it outright stops the gas tank empty



not even a drop I'm gonna choke that nigga when I reach my spot



three miles from no place and now I gotta walk



to the top of the hill and down again



round the bend page my broth from the old fruit stand



the phone ring rings yo i
