Moment

[00:11.84] Time's running out.
[00:13.89] Hold onto this moment,
[00:14.99] Cause you're never gonna get it back.
[00:15.85] I Hope you had the time of your life.
[00:16.84] (repeat)
[00:26.91] Now, What would you do with your time if you knew
[00:28.83] you were gonna die in one day?
[00:29.96] Would you jump through the hoops of your life with a boost,
[00:31.95] or would you deny and complain
[00:32.95] Would you run to the roof, suicidal and blue,
[00:34.90] as if you were deciding your fate/
[00:36.96] or better yet, now would you cut to the truth - you'd get as stupid as you could
[00:39.00] all before you expired - no shame.
[00:40.09] (Time's running out). Hold on to this moment,
[00:42.06] Cause you're never gonna get it back.
[00:43.08] And the time slides right by us and with a silence
[00:45.07] without the slightest hint of a pitter pat
[00:47.02] It'll be fickle and shift on you, unpredictable, ticking fast when getting laughs
[00:49.12] or it can drag when shit is bad
[00:50.17] The future's in my grasp, hmph, there it goes,
[00:52.16] Now everything I was saying a second ago is in the past/
[00:53.14] So we live with that.
[00:54.16] Which tense, can you feel tension
[00:55.21] Wait for it... in the 4th dimension
[00:57.26] Ain't no one getting over - The relentless
[00:59.28] Pace forward is out of order with your senses
[01:01.26] Take notice - not a time out/
[01:02.25] So I hide every clock in my house/
[01:04.33] I don't wanna be reminded of my anxiety that when I'm idle
[01:06.34] I'm wasting away while I count... down/
[01:07.31] Waiting for a clean slate,
[01:09.39] For pete's sake! Lonely, waiting a dream date. High brow.
[01:11.34] Ain't no way to replace your mistakes
[01:13.49] No matter how good a replay, might sound
[01:14.43] Ain't no fucking freeze-frame to see straight,
[01:16.48] Waiting for the stars to align, or a plausible sign
[01:18.41] or a law to be signed, As it all swishes by
[01:19.46] Cause really, the only right - is right now.
[01:21.55] Pow.
[01:22.56] Hold onto this moment,
[01:24.42] cause you're never gonna get it back
[01:48.45] And as each one passes, it adds baggage
[01:53.43] you gotta drag into the next, till you quit or collapse,
[01:55.42] Bit of romance in the concept of living fast
[01:56.44] No sitting stagnant, ya stop and then it's your ass
[01:57.50] So we get attached to the madness of being frantic
[02:00.50] Until we crash into walls that were built to last - And it's tragic.
[02:02.51] Niggas say give it time, but they're spending mine while they give advice,
[02:05.52] Luckily, I'm wise - it was set aside,
[02:06.53] The simple take is that we're dashing within our prime/
[02:08.59] Then disintegrating into ash by the finish line
[02:09.68] 2 minutes in, 11 seconds gone,
[02:11.67] You can feel the ticks burrowed in your bones
[02:12.65] And they're thoroughly devoted to murder while they're serving you notice
[02:14.60] The borrowing is over and tomorrow isn't owed.
[02:15.64] But I feel it in the bottom of my soul
[02:17.74] I don't wanna die and yo - that's all I really know
[02:19.76] I could live forever, but my body's getting old/
[02:20.79] God made a promise, but his clock his hella slow/
[02:22.88] Holding your breath brings you closer to death
[02:24.80] It's the loneliest lesson you grow to detest
[02:25.89] And this whole bit of flesh is a linear experience,
[02:27.86] except of course, within the mind where the Delorean is kept
[02:29.94] And I floor it... cause I... wanna... hold it...
[02:31.99] stretch this... out for... all that's... left/
[02:34.00] before it... runs out.I'ma.own it...
[02:35.03] With any doubts or small regrets
[02:37.00] We're born at the entrance to the passage of time
[02:39.06] A form that's defenseless to its savage design
[02:41.09] We morph as we trek it/
[02:42.07] Until the reaper escorts us to the exit - molted and breathless
[02:49.19] Once upon a time - I learned that time is life,
[03:13.14] And procrastination was theft
[03:14.20] So, if time is money, then you gonna serve time,
[03:16.21] When the time comes, life will pay for this debt/
[03:18.29] Cause when time flies, bet it's first class,
[03:19.21] And the time line of credit burns fast,
[03:20.22] So it's high time, that you learn to manage it
[03:22.20] and in the interest of saving time/
[03:23.13] Two-timing, you'll find is your worst habit/
[03:24.25] Cause it's about time that I faced the music
[03:26.20] Because the way that I kill time is abusive
[03:27.22] And time and again, I get by on a whim
[03:29.22] I'm behind at halftime, and then right at the end is when I'm buying a win/
[03:31.25] They tell me time is a snitch, but only time will tell
[03:33.32] If telling time will you keep you outta the cell/
[03:34.46] Time flies and it heals all wounds it's an angel,
[03:36.40] That'll strangle you while it saves you. - Times up! - I'm grateful.
