The pressure's on, you got to make it happen
Deadline stares you in the face
Will you pull up, will you carry on?
The people around you
It feels like they've lost their faith
But it ain't me, I'm just the message man
It ain't me 'cause there's no news at hand
I'm not the one who's come to set them free
It ain't me, I'm just the message man
Late last night you called
And you said I would have to wait
But you know that I'm under the gun
In time you say it's all gonna come
But I can't help feeling scared
'Cause I know not what's out there
It ain't me, I'm just the message man
It ain't me 'cause there's no news at hand
I'm not the one who's come to set them free
It ain't me, I'm just the message man
We can't help but feel unwanted
Being held upon a string
It was just a mistake that somebody made
Just one of those business things
They're not friends, no they're just a company
But I wasn't brought up that way
And it hurt me when I hear them say
What you done boy it ain't through
Oh you know they don't understand
That it ain't me, I'm just the message man
It ain't me 'cause there's no news at hand
I'm not the one who's come to set them free
It ain't me, I'm just the message man, yes I am
It ain't me, I'm just the message man
It ain't me, I'm just the message man, yes I am
It ain't me, no no, it ain't me, oh oh
It ain't me, oh yes, it ain't me
It ain't me, I'm just the message man
