Time, what a touchy subject
It doesn't rewind, thankful that mine isn't up yet
Spend so much of it tryin to make this timeless
I look up and we was big timers
They say, +Welcome to Strangeland+, exit the change man
Could've been in a casket or paddy wagon with restrained hands
I feel like I'm right at home bro, findin my way on the open road
Stressed that I make niggaz overload, every obstacle overthrow
Really gets at us, we only beginnin, ain't got what I want but I'm near it
For years I was tellin my homies and family I just need someone to hear it
Wish I was sharin this moment with my day ones, I know that Zoo here in spirit
Until I'm dead and gone or can no longer perform, no stoppin me, period
Lookin back I dig the motivated, it's a miracle I made it out of there, I'm permanently dedicated
And because of that my creative on control
did it gets excited, every incident was unrelated
No relaxin, I'm only headed out after I know I said it
would not let it out, I set to elevate it
A distraction created in the mirrors, the enemy
don't let it be the reason that you hesitated
I've come a long way from that booth in the basement I made with a mattress
Or the mic in the hallway closet, hit record
you could hear the door when the track hits
Hope somethin on a tracklist, take it somewhere
ready to go anywhere but backwards
On a high hope that lasts us when it casts us in the judgmental eyes of the masses
Yeah, the fact is that it take time
I've been busy tryna make time, game face cause it's game time
Yeah, never have enough to waste time
Hit my momma on the FaceTime, where we livin ain't the same time
Talked to some homies today and one told me that he almost gave up a week ago
Was a reminder to me that there's others who count on me more than I even know
One nigga said to me all that he wanted from me is for me to be reachable
Called me to talk to somebody and I could tell that conversation was needed so
Can't keep my cellular ringer low, try to respond to text messages
Don't like it but the impression is, niggaz will fall through the crevices
Connection lost out of negligence, act like I know I'ma never flinch
It feel like it's been a few presidents, how long it's been? I'm bad with measurements

[Outro: Church Boi]
Time, ohh
Wish I had, time
Yeah, yeah, ohhhh
Time, time, time, ohh yeah
Oh time, not enough tiiiime, ohhh
Ohh time, time, time
Ohhhhh, not enough time
Just a matter of time
Time, time, ooh-oooh, yeah yeah
Talkin 'bout time, ohh, time
Oh time, oh time, yeah
Time, time, not enough time
Just a matter of tiiiime, yeah yeah, ooooh
Time, time, yeah
Time, time...
