[Intro: Irma Thomas]
Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
Now you always say (Ohhh)
Now you always say (Ohhh )
That you want to be free
[Verse 1]
(Baby)Uh, check, check, check (I don't have to cry no more)
All right, I'm ready (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's about that again!
Y'all wanna know why I don't stop?
Y'all wanna know why I don't flop?
E.L means everlasting
Everyday lit
Got no fucks left to give to you fake rappers, fake fans
You don't mean well with your fake love and your fake handshakes
E.L, I go fit tell
I'll forever, ever prevail
I'll never, ever see jail
If I die tomorrow, my heart is pure
I'll never, ever see hell
So without further ado
This is BAR 1? No!

You know I got what you need (Yeah, and I've got some real love, the kind that you need)
Can't believe I shit on you niggas 6 times, chale! (That's why I know there's gonna be the same feeling)
I promise you, baby! (I'm not gonna have to worry no more)

Want me to say it? It's the BAR, bitch!
[Verse 2]
Where my ELiens at? Put your Ls (ELs) in the air
B3 you know we "Pelican Fly"
B3 you know we on a 10 over 10
These are the things money can't buy
These are the days of our lives that we're gonna look back on
And remember those days we would sing along, sing along to these rap songs
I've been on stages and pages and the money makes you change
When safe places get dangerous and best friends become strangers
Through it all, here I am
E.L, I'm a better man
I'm a rookie and a veteran
I guess time's on my side, I'm saying!(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Outro: E.L & Irma Thomas]
Time is on my side, yes it is
Yeah, I feel like I'm gon' live forever, man
(Time is on my side, yes it is)
(Is on my side) I swear I'm gon' live forever
(Time is on my side, yes it is)
Welcome ladies and gentlemen (Time is on my side, yes it is)
It's BAR 6, people (Time is on my side, yes it is)
Yeah (Time is on my side, yes it is)
Let's get into it (Time is on my side, yes it is)
