Time Goes

I used to hide it as a child, right inside my smile
Then I went and got a old
Couldn't hide no more
Something that was told
Hit deep in my soul
They said time goes

This for them times that I was out here hurting
This for them times I cried and no one heard me
This for the times I overcame my fears
This for them times I missed out on my kids
This for them times I thought nothing was workin
This for them times I was putting it work in
This for them times that I was holding on
And it's for them times
Cause time be going on

Back to the future, great Scott, when I'm moving past
My cup runneth over where god fill up that glass
He turned the sand to the beach, from my hourglass
What's forever if forever, never get the last
And years before COVID, we would get the mask
Praying that I play it safe, and I go get this cash
I thank the Lord every day, cause he helped my family make a way
Praying that this music helped me get it bag

There's a lot of us that really know this feeling, man
When you think your bout as useful as a ceiling fan
When you feel you're going through it, no one understands. And you got enough on you, you feel like giving in
My granny used to tell me patience was a virtue. But too much time wasted, baby, that'll hurt you
Cause I believe that there is so true. Cause I remember as a child I used to

I used to hide it as a child
Right inside my smile
Then I went and got old
Couldn't hide no more
Something I was told
Hit deep in my soul
They say time goes on

This for them times that I was out here hurting
This for them times I cried and no one heard me
This for the times I overcame my fears
This for them times I missed out on my kids
This for them times I thought nothing was workin
This for them times I was putting my work in
This for them times that I was holding on
This for them times cause time be goin on

Back with a first deuce, demons be coming fast
Quick, gotta bust a move, gotta get that running man
Need to stay focused when you're trying to complete your plan

Praying when my children get older they can understand
That your mama had a problem, that's why until you grow up
Devil tried to get me so I had to tell him hold up
Riding with my little brother in the Beamer truck
Had a conversation and this is what I told him
I pray that you don't ever know this feeling man
Sometimes I be feeling like I'm a garbage can
When you feel you going through it no one understands
And you got enough on you, you feel like giving in

J Cole said acceptance is somewhat a virtue
And never let the boogeyman go and hurt you
And I can tell you one thing that's so true
Cause I remember as a child I used to

I used to hide it as a child
Right inside my smile
Then I went and got old
Couldn't hide no more
Something that was told
Hit deep in my soul
They say time

This for them times that I was out here hurting
This for them times I cried and no one heard me
This for them times I overcame my fears
This for them times I missed out on my kids
This for them times I thought nothing was workin
This for them times I was puttin' that work in
This for them times that I was holding on
They say time goes

This for them times that I was out here hurting
This for them times I cried and no one heard me
This for them times I overcame my fears
This for them times I missed out on my kids
This for them times I thought nothing was workin
This for them times I was puttin' that work in
This for them times that I was holding on
They say time goes.
