TURN BACK THE CLOCK
Lately feel like only thing I can trust is the time
Past and present and the future know that they gon' never cease to pass me by
But even sometimes that'll let me down
Feel like time tryna haggle with me now
I'm 19 turn the clock in exchange for a dream
And they talking that the Glock gon' bang to the beat
But the people keep talking' I'm takin' a seat
Let the world pass by
When I tell 'em that I rap then the girls ask why
But I can't even explain, I'm still makin' songs in the dorm
Going somewhere, friends playing pong in the dorm
And I'm building me a life that I always dreamed of
Friends around me that are calling' me tough
Improvising cut out all the weak stuff
Recognition never gon' be enough
Recognition never gon' be enough
(Recognition never gon' be enough)
It's been a year now they showing' me love
But I don't think I'm the one to lead us
The beats and I, nothing gets between us
Turn on the song friends are saying, "Jesus!"
But I ain't a savior
Now they lookin' I'm minding behavior
No time to be neighborly
I got some people who eyeing' me faithfully
Say what you say what you tryin' to say to me
Say what you say what you tryin' to say to me
Say what you say what you tryin' to say to me
They just be driving' me crazily
Uh, no one gon change what I'm doin' this music is true to me
Whether you wanna respect or admire or hate on me
I just been tired of make believe
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying, trying, trying, trying, trying
I just been trying, trying, trying, trying, trying
I just been trying, trying, trying, trying
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying to make it
I just been trying to make it
Lately feel like only thing I can trust is the time
Past and present and the future know that they gon' never cease to pass me by
But even sometimes that'll let me down
Feel like time tryna haggle with me now
I'm 19 turn the clock in exchange for a dream
And they talking that the Glock gon' bang to the beat
But the people keep talking' I'm takin' a seat
(Keep talking I'm taking a seat)
