Lyrics

Yeah…
Ain’t no rewind button.
Ain’t no “I’ll do it later” guarantees.
We all got the same clock,
Just different start times.
So if you listening—
Listen now.
I done seen tomorrow disappear overnight
Seen legends leave early, barely kissed they kids goodnight
Used to live stressed, chasing what ain’t here yet
Missed whole moments tryna prove what I’d get next
Now I slow it down, feel the breeze when I step out
Smell the coffee, hear my people when they let out
Laugh more, call back, say I love you
Life short, pride long—had to unlearn that muscle
Everybody flexing like tomorrow owed
But I watched strong men fold from what they never showed
So I toast to the now, not the could-be
‘Cause memories don’t wait on the new me
If today was the last page
What would your story say?
If tonight was the curtain call
Would you smile or hesitate?
Live in the present
This moment a gift, don’t waste it
One life, no edits
No double takes, no saving
Love who you love
Say what you mean, be gracious
Treat ‘em how you wanna be treated
That’s the code, stay sacred
I was proud of me before they clapped for it
Before the numbers matched the sacrifice
Before the “bro you made it” texts
I was learning peace is the real flex
Seen money change friends, seen silence talk
Seen ego turn kings into empty thrones
So I check myself before I check the room
Ain’t impressed by smoke, I respect the truth
Kids growing fast, I blink and they taller
Moments slipping by while the phone keep calling
So I put it down, lock eyes, stay present
This life don’t pause for your convenience
If I leave tonight
Know I loved you loud
Know I gave my best
With what I knew right now
Live in the present
This moment a gift, don’t waste it
One life, no edits
No double takes, no saving
Love who you love
Say what you mean, be gracious
Treat ‘em how you wanna be treated
That’s the code, stay sacred
If you still breathing, you still chosen.
Still time to forgive.
Still time to love right.
Still time to be proud of who you becoming,
Not who they clapping for.
Live it while you got it.
Right now.
Blaq Out.
