Time
All I've got is time and what a terrible thing to waste
In a time that's like a bad dream and all I wanna do is wake
But my eyes stay closed my mind open, broken
Spoken words of hope but now I've lost it
Lost this, feeling of awe that I had before now I'm raw to my core
Lost in a void that I can't escape from, or wake from
2019 was a mistake with nothing to take from
Take me back to when I was 13 at my fake prom
And I was just concerned with chasing girls
And captivated by the future I could've had in this world
Or take me back to when I was 5
With no concept of what it means to be alive, and then arrive at death
To build up knowledge and experience for it to be lost
In a permanent frost after taking your very last breath
Not to be morbid but skip forward to when I was 16
With big dreams of finishing my further education
Came back from exam day with my first BAE
To hear the phone ring and get my first, morbid explanation
Imagine that, monkey hanging on your back
Not a chip on my shoulder more like the weight of a boulder
Now I'm older and colder with the soul of a soldier
Nostalgia not allowed in my house because of what I just told ya
So right now is all I have and all I can take
And if I don't like it, I guess, I can just wait
It's just time
It's just time
It's just time
It's just time
It's just time
All we've got is time 'n' as it marches forth on this pathless course
Although we look back in our future darkness falls
Like a sheet of rain, destined to repeat the pain
And never delete the stain of our previous generations
Looking back, can be something good, could be something bad
Can be all you've got left after the brief life that we have
Staying up at night wasn't bad rapping until the early hours
Walking home in the rain at the start of those summer showers
Memories, coming to my mind just like flashes
Of lightning in the storm nostalgic of times past
It was the time of my life and at the time I didn't know it
I was dying as a poet, trying my best not to show it
Although I know it, couldn't have been any better or worse
Unrehearsed verses freed into the universe
Submerge yourself, in my memories remember these
Things that I agree could actually make me, me
A European trip on the train at 19
Was a great introduction to the crazy night scene
And mic fiends, and finding out I had a talent
Is was apparent but I was all out of balance
And caught between two different planets a lot like Alice
Absent and unchallenged I was destined to be damaged
Wasn't priceless in the war waged on my inner crisis
Nightly memories will suffice while I lightly write this
I've got time
I've still got time
Do we have time?
I've still got time
Do we have time?
In a time that's like a bad dream and all I wanna do is wake
But my eyes stay closed my mind open, broken
Spoken words of hope but now I've lost it
Lost this, feeling of awe that I had before now I'm raw to my core
Lost in a void that I can't escape from, or wake from
2019 was a mistake with nothing to take from
Take me back to when I was 13 at my fake prom
And I was just concerned with chasing girls
And captivated by the future I could've had in this world
Or take me back to when I was 5
With no concept of what it means to be alive, and then arrive at death
To build up knowledge and experience for it to be lost
In a permanent frost after taking your very last breath
Not to be morbid but skip forward to when I was 16

Do we have time?
I've still got time
Do we have time?
