(That's where I'm at, in life, you know)
(And, I just don't have the time)
(Like they say, all we got is time, but time-time don't wait for nobody, you know)
(You gotta get away, gotta)
(That's that, simple as that)
(Onto bigger and better things, my people)
Ninety seven was the year I was born.
I'm twenty six and wonder where is it gone?
Tell me fast, what you on?
Have to capture when your mind ain't strong, so get your reps up.
Discipline, get back in the form.
So what is time to the man who sees the gold Rolex and fantasizes about the money, cars, women and sex?
As if a filmer from the chains on his neck.
Or does he think of what his kids need next?
I think not, tock-tick-tock.
While we scroll through TikTok and decide on who's hot and who's not.
The Creme de la Creme.
Are we conscious of this time that we got?
Yo, will it flash before our eyes before we finally drop?
What is time to the man that's serving twenty five to life, but never learned to read or write, but always found the time to fight?
What is time to the man with no ciders, still awakens at the first sunlight?
So what is time to a man?
What is time with no plan?
To capture every moment I can.
The world at my hands.
My daughter's not a baby in a [?].
Got me thinkin', where the time go?
Damn, it's a shame in advance.
The future's in a second with a glance.
Take your time, we only get one chance.
And I just wanna dance.
Live up for my people and my fans.
Maybe you might be the ones to understand, this is timeless.
Try to make it mean something.
Before the day I leave.
Nothing's ever promised.
We hold on, but if we honest, what remain and what's forgotten?
Only difference in our brain, nobody else will feel your losses.
Have we measured for the strain?
It's a cost, not a promise.
That is never going to change, no matter how much you deposit.
You can't stop it, so delay it.
It's your best and only option, even then you could be safely placed into a coffin.
Every day, I live it like my last.
Who knows when that could be, so I'ma give it all I have.
I've pissed so many years, doing just exactly that.
I think I've lost track of what I've done along the path.
A blessing in the math, being able to subtract.
What I was trying to add, in pursuit of what you had.
We're focused on the halves, see time's up for grabs.
And two hands could never catch enough to make it last.
What is time with no plan?
To capture every moment I can.
The world at my hands.
My daughter's not a baby in a [?].
Got me thinkin', where the time go?
Damn, it's a shame in advance.
The future's in a second with a glance.
Take your time, we only get one chance.
And I just wanna dance.
Live up for my people and my fans.
Maybe you might be the ones to understand, this is timeless.
