Iota (uppercase Ι, lowercase ι; Greek: Ιώτα [iɔ̌ːta]) is the ninth letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 10. It was derived from the Phoenician letter Yodh (). Letters that arose from this letter include the Roman I and J and the Cyrillic І (І, і), Yi (Ї, ї), Je (Ј, ј), and iotified letters (e.g. Yu (Ю, ю)).
Iota represents [i]. In ancient Greek it occurred in both long [iː] and short [i] versions, but this distinction has been lost in Modern Greek.
Iota participated as the second element in falling diphthongs, with both long and short vowels as the first element. Where the first element was long, the iota was lost in pronunciation at an early date, and was written in polytonic orthography as iota subscript, in other words as a very small ι under the main vowel, for instance ᾼ ᾳ ῌ ῃ ῼ ῳ.
The word is used in a common English phrase, 'not one iota', meaning 'not the slightest amount', in reference to a phrase in the New Testament: "until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law" (Mt 5:18).

Genres: Comedy,I got a handle on it, I got a handle on it
I got a handle on it, I got a handle on it
You said waste your time, but don't do it without me
That's some sound advice
I was drunk on Elvis cole, pumping Sin Dog Jelly Roll
I was falling towards the hole but it's ok I got a handle on it
I got a handle on it, I got a handle on it
I got a handle on it, I got a handle on it
You're a funny boy, with a funny face
That deserves a smile
As we spun out of control, and we knew we'd do it all
I rewound the jelly roll
To replay side b, I got a handle on me
Should have left that shit at home
It makes me feel alone
But then you would have stayed home too
And I've got a thing for you
And you've got a thing for me, watching fireworks by the sea
Finding balance on your knees as I'm watching you go down on me
Can we fix our face, in a darkened place
So we look like junkies
It's not being vain it's just staying sane
And I've lost my keys
We could roll around some more, find some secrets on the floor
Turn our troubles into more
Get our inspiration back, all the art that our lives lack
