Charles Hamilton - Charles, the Creator lyrics

When the clock strike 12: 00 on the nose
You got to know the distance
Between the hour the
Minute and second i devour these
Minutes from these ministers
Send a message to niggas
Thinking reckless but, i take my time to
Do it
So when it’s 12: 01 you gotta be a shining
God to understand my rhyme
And movement i shine
Like a diamond and you prove it you need a
Chain speak your name i don’t need a thang
I eat the game so as the second hand moves
The distance isn’t missed because
With a quick
Tick everything follows 60 of em then
Everything gets swallowed from the previous
Minute so as time goes by, I’m eating the
Minute thinking for minutes
Hours of time gotta be my time to shine

Everyone’s all grown up
I don’t care what you do
But nobody want to show up
I don’t care what you do so it’s safe to say
I don’t care what you do i don’t care
As time floats by in spite of you

I applaud all of you kids for holing
Onto your dreams but Marilyn Manson
Said it - We are disposable teens
So anything you seen in
A magazine while you’re flowing through with
Your fingers hoping to see your
Favorite article on your favorite artist
You outta know it’s some
Overly smart shit, really some dumb shit
Honestly some hard shit but a
Broken heart’s the target
You gotta use your smart sense to not
Argue with niggas who are only winning
Via arguments i’m trying to give
Wisdom hopefully these kids listen because
As the big ticking continues
You’re getting older and this boulder on
My shoulder is getting colder
The Evil Microchip, I downloaded it so I
Hold it for a moment or 6, just flowing

Everyone’s all grown up
I don’t care what you do
But nobody want to show up
I don’t care what you do so it’s safe to say
I don’t care what you do i don’t care
As time floats by in spite of you

Make the most of your time even
If I don’t flow but I
Rhyme I take my time to share so how dare you
Say I don’t care? Even if it’s
From a pair eyes over
There in Egypt there’s a big
Deception, perhaps a misconception
Or misdirected hit from a missile sent to
My chest from cupid i know these drums
Are stupid but I’m trying to
Avoid it with my strongest ability just
To let the song know I’m
Feeling me you can’t have me I’m
Taking my time to build me
All you can do is steal me
But, you can share me
Be the opposite of these
People who clearly just
Want to see me pop some shit
Or get some riches in my pocket i’d
Rather be gothic i got this

Everyone’s all grown up
I don’t care what you do
But nobody want to show up
I don’t care what you do so it’s safe to say
I don’t care what you do i don’t care
As time floats by in spite of you
