Spitty - TIME lyrics
[Spitty - TIME lyrics]
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Goes the clock but what is time?
An eight second Google search tells
Me it's the indefinite continued
Progress of existence and events
In the past, present
And future regarded as a whole
Pfft, what a lousy definition
Then I ask myself, what is time to me?
Time is the uncontrollable, a
Dimension beyond our reach
We have power over many things
That I can preach
We've harnessed fire and water
Wind and electricity
Defied gravity and walked on the moon
But time is still a mystery
We tried to label time by
Creating numbers and digit's
Seconds and minutes and hours
Are all just figments
Of days and weeks and months and years
Time heals pain washes away tears
Time controls us, we don't control time
We ain't Marty McFly cuz our
Time's a linear line
Time creates age and develops relationships
Time shows no mercy, filled with abrasiveness
See time changes us from innocent
Babies to fun loving children
To stressed out adults just
One in seven billion
Time makes us lose memories, thoughts
Friends time gives us life and takes
It away in the end
Nine months to be created, a
Single moment to die
I was tryna hi but time already said good bye
I heard every second time births
Two and takes away one
Take away meaning death but
The story isn't done
Time left species extinct
Countries separated
It left some to die, made others educated
Time controls us, we don't control time
And that creates a new question in my mind
What do you do with time? Seeing
As how we don't own it, all we can do is use
Time as our primary component
We always count down the final
Seconds of a game
The few minutes before the bell
Time always stays the same
But doesn't time fly when you're having fun?
Or slow down as you wait
For things to get done?
Usain Bolt broke records in 958 seconds
Time means the world to him I reckon
Apollo 11 took 3 days 3 hours and 49 minutes
To reach the moon I bet every second
Counted for the men in it
60 seconds make a minute, 60 min to an hour
24 hours in a day, time has a lotta power
7 days a week, or 365 a year
And what's something many of us fear?
What if we waste our lives
Without purpose, without accomplishment
What if time flashes by
Leaving us with nothing
There's no stopping it
Some people say time heals all
Be it pain or stress
Emotional or physical, time is the best
One may take 20 years to
Write a best selling book
To write this piece of work?
Couple hours it took
All I know is I make the most of time
Use all that I can every second is mine
I invest time wisely into building a career
Developing my skills as I grow over the years
We can all keep waiting for whatever it is
To come knocking at our door
Like a nice Christmas gift
Or you can seize time and do
What needs to be done
Use time to your advantage
Succeed and have fun
Stop wasting time and start working hard
Spend your time building a future
And it'll take you far
Some of us tend to dwindle on the past
But how's time that's already lost
Help your future path
The only gift we're given is time it'self
The present so take every second minute hour
Day understanding this message
On the other hand
We often try to rush ourselves
We forget to enjoy the small moments
To love ourselves
If you just keep rushing through life
To get to the end
Eventually you'll reach it but
You'll be dead instead
Don't underestimate the power of time
Observe what time offers, live life
Continue to shine
We don't control time, time controls us
Time ticks away as we wait for our late bus
I thank you for spending your
Time to listen to me
Now go use your time before
Time sets you free
Goes the clock but what is time?
An eight second Google search tells
Me it's the indefinite continued
Progress of existence and events
In the past, present
And future regarded as a whole
Pfft, what a lousy definition
