Dilated Peoples - Times Squared lyrics
[Dilated Peoples - Times Squared lyrics]
Let me explain it, it's always right now
Ain't it? Graphic like a picture's worth
A thousand words painted
Is watching it pass by the pastime
Or push the fast lane until
The flat line saint it
They say that it flies
But delicate to the touch
You can repel it with a fingertip brush
Plus the long way usually starts
With trying to take shortcuts
Chasing it runs blindsided brace for the rush
Wipe your feet before you
Walk through the door
Watch your step when the bridges burning
Look at what these kids are learning
Cattle works the farm
What wages she burning?
Orbiting the axis, tables keep turning
The world keeps spinning
You're born running out of minutes
Shadow puppets on the sundial, polymath
Outer limit's
Da Vinci painted Renaissance Man
Better live it better get it before later
Becomes never did it
We keep getting while the getting is good
No spare time for average
We got to seize the time it's now or never
Am I left behind or just the only to stay?
Once it's gone
It's impossible to find your way
You can have it all
But can't collect it at once what you want
You used it worse and that's
A curse on all fronts
More to these stunts than
Increasing the speed
Like the days teach much to
What minutes didn't heed
Marathon, what the fuck is your lead
We ain't racing that's you ahead of the BP
You're being too impatient
I check my placement before I board
Let the odds even up before
We settle the score the word is out
We got war on the memory thief
I heard the battle long life
But the ending is brief
Known for healing, known for killing
The same reason I know there's no ceiling
The future isn't certain but
Today is always near
So we tearing down these curtains
When they try to interfere
Let me explain it, it's always right now
Ain't it? Man, let me try to explain this
Time passes by
You can have it all but not at once
Man, let me try to explain this
Time passes by better get it before later
Becomes never did it
Ain't it? Graphic like a picture's worth
A thousand words painted
Is watching it pass by the pastime
Or push the fast lane until
The flat line saint it
They say that it flies
But delicate to the touch
You can repel it with a fingertip brush
Plus the long way usually starts
With trying to take shortcuts
Chasing it runs blindsided brace for the rush
Wipe your feet before you
Walk through the door
Watch your step when the bridges burning
Look at what these kids are learning
Cattle works the farm
What wages she burning?
Orbiting the axis, tables keep turning
The world keeps spinning
You're born running out of minutes
Shadow puppets on the sundial, polymath

Better live it better get it before later
Becomes never did it
We keep getting while the getting is good
