the remnant - take the stairs lyrics

[tribe one, talking]
“look. you got approximately one chance with me. you told me that you want me to be your man and i said i want you to be my lady. and when say it, i mean it. and you–you–you ‘no, we’re just talkin’, i’m just talkin’ to him.’ no! this is not middle school. alright? middle school people talk to eachother, but no, ‘ i’m just talkin,’ i’m just talkin.’ listen. ”

[verse 1: just john]
me and my lady trapped and can’t escape an elevator
the conversation’s bad, the shaft is barely ventilated
i’m claustrophobic and she knows it
she’s trying not to show it, but tearing up and crying and i notice
that’s when i had an epiphany about our relationship
how it’d been taking hits, where we were takin’ it
that’s when i knew what we’d been through
was gonna make her split, so i went into an elevator pitch
i told her that before i met her, i had been a wh0r-
and she should take this elevator as a metaphor
when one support string is rising while the other one’s down
it’s more distinct we’re realizing now we’ve leveled out
there’s a little tension and we’re caught up in suspension
there’s thoughts and some remembrance of her mentioning corinthians
unequal yolks and omelettes? i don’t know but honest
if she p-sses up on all this, i’ll get back with baby mama
and with that, she ran up on me, my thought was to get loose
on my shoulder went a boot– she was trying to get a boost!
climbed up like lara croft, in the air duct, she was off
she headed for the exit, i’m convinced it was her loss

[chorus]
you push the b-ttons to my love and i’m sayin no more
until now it’s up and down and i’m asking what floor
your elevator behavior shakes me to the core
it’s better off you let me off, open your doors

[verse 2: tribe one]
you always said you wanted me to fight for you
and then you fought with me on everything constantly
one minute you tell me i’m just right for you
and then you turn around and tell me every single thing that’s wrong with me
what’s wrong with you, you make it so hard to get along with you
i wouldn’t stay a minute longer even if i wanted to
all this time i stuck around, i told you i was getting off
next time these elevator ups and downs come round
don’t call it a come back, girl we’ve been here for years
we can stop where we stand, go back and follow the crumb tracks
but we’ve already done that, we’re out of fresh beginnings
and we’re out of extra innings and your shouting’s less convincing
now we get to end things with much needed closure
and yes i’ve said that in the past this time, trust me it’s over
we’ve got nothing to show for all of our commitment plans
and frankly my dear, i just don’t give a–

“no thank you! and i don’t wanna talk. now listen, you want a little teeny sandwich of a man just to have around whenever you want to have him around, i’m not on your schedule like that”

[chorus]

[verse 3: adan bean]
little lady you must’ve lost your god-given mind
you’ve got the brazen audacity to think i’d ever be fine
with them wishy-washy ways, you expect me to stay
like life is a long time and i’ve got it to waste
nay, that ain’t the case and in case you weren’t aware
that there att-tude is inherently impaired
let’s not split hairs, let’s split for our betterment
this failed like the us switch to metric measurements
and yes we described i know why i feel heartless
but homie you want drama like you got racketeering charges
i ain’t one of the affiliates, so cure the silliness
really it’s your fickleness that sincerely got me p-ssed
there comes a point when even a patient man has to stand
i gotta go get that [?] call a truce, shake hands
part ways, start today with our next phase, fair?
in case of emergency, next time i’ll take the stairs

“yeah man,it’s… it’s a wrap… god loves us both but uh… he hates us together. track, can you just finish it up?

[chorus x6]

“i’ll help you! no decision is a decision of ‘no.’ back then, you couldn’t call me back! you said we was boyfriend and girlfriend, but you wouldn’t call me back! and now i got a rap career and you wanna call me on the phone? no thank you, forget it!”
