Getting back into the element



Got me outta my element
Stumbling o'er words
don't know what to say
Like it when I know what's
Going on
Come in
Do what I gotta do
Get the hell outta
Your way

We been jiving
ain't been meeting right
Talks been square wiff no
Resolutes
Look gotta make time
To say my thang
Get me back in my element

Sure you right
Stay strong
Tell me, Tell me
What going on
Loss enough
Time to win one
Tell me baby
What's going on
