Lyrics

I got these propositions prior engagements and priorities

Wanna run from them all despite the people supporting me

Gonna order me a one-way flight to somewhere overseas

Just to get away from important things

See I had to escape the fake Fuckery

Fuckers been fake loving me

Threw me under the bus to be certain that they was covered

All these misconstrued misunderstandings I've gotta set them straight

It's not that deep

I'd rather overthink than underestimate

Cause people don't get to see my soul unless I invite em in

Now I take shit one day at a time just like a vitamin

I'm caught up in a blunder

It feels like thunder and lightning

I'm in a dark place on a journey for enlightenment

I waste a lot of time leaving my life in the "what ifs"

I psych myself out to the point of just saying fuck it

But I know I want to do it all before I kick the bucket

But can't help but feel the feeling that I'm stuck

And sometimes I just wanna fly (fly) fly (fly) fly (fly)

Other times when I could cry (cry) cry (cry) cry (cry)

It's always life or death it's do-or-die (die) die (die) die (die)

I could really make it if I try (try) try (try) try (try)

But I know sometimes Imma fail (fail) fail (fail) fail (fail)

But what's life without the L?

Man I swear I'll be throwing bands in the wishing well (well) well

Well, will I go to heaven or to hell?

Only time will tell

Only time will tell

I swear I hate feeling stagnant

I feel like I'm dragging

I'm attracted to static

Negative energy magnet

Get so mad at the past until the point that I'm past tense

Too scared to rock the boat

Don't want to feel like I'm crashing

And that word to Aaliyah

See I believe that age is more than a number

Cause if I snooze I lose

And I don't usually slumber

I wonder what if I don't ever make it happen with rap

What if my degree don't get me shit but a pat on the back?

Man honestly absolute failure is one of my fears

I've been comparing my progress to that of some of my peers

Cause I'm really too young to have a whole life and career

But then again I'm too old not to have an idea

My elders tell me to take it easy

I'm trying to believe them

I got time on my side like it's my Siamese twin

I get impaired by comparisons

Wanna be in American Idol

But not an idle American

Really I wanna fly

And sometimes I just wanna fly (fly) fly (fly) fly (fly)

Other times when I could cry (cry) cry (cry) cry (cry)

It's always life or death it's do-or-die (die) die (die) die (die)

I could really make it if I try (try) try (try) try (try)

But I know sometimes Imma fail (fail) fail (fail) fail (fail)

But what's life without the L?

Man I swear I'll be throwing bands in the wishing well (well) well

Well, will I go to heaven or to hell?

Only time will tell

Only time will tell

Time Keeps on Slipping, Slipping

Time Keeps on Slipping, Slipping

How can I begin?

I'm feeling like time just boxes me in

It keeps bringing me L's

And it stops my wins

I feel like my future should not depend on if I pass or I fail of course

I'm grinding because I want to excel of course

I had to learn the lesson that time is of the essence

And it ain't XXL or source

I've been underestimating how important my life is

Making poor choices, supporting my vices

I'm sure it ain't righteous

But I don't want to spend part of my life in a quarter life crisis

I live on intuition

Think I'm borderline psychic

I be overthinking

It's a war on my psyche

Thinking about the future I be mortified slightly

I'm sort of like frightened

But this some flight or flight shit

And I feel like

((Time))

Keep on slipping away

And I really got a whole lotta shit on my plate

(But millionaires say we got the same 24 hours)

I could only do so much shit in a day, ****

((Time))

Keep on dragging on

It believing me behind like a tagalong

And I just be doing shit to let it pass along

Understand that might be bad and wrong but

((Time))

Some say time ain't shit

Cause man made time so the time don't exist

But even when it change **** time don't slip

If I don't know shit else **** time gonna tick

((Time))

And it's a façade

That you can do shit when that shit's on your side

The minute you don't waste your minutes on time

Is the minute you live and not just survive ****
