[Hook x2:]
|
Lights off
|
Ain't nobody watching me
|
I heard about the man in the sky
|
But he probably fell asleep
|
Yeah, and you say Audemars, Audemars, Audemars
|
But still don't know the time that sun comes down from the stars
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
Yeah, they say that time waits for no man
|
Nah, hey probably lyin'
|
Cause time wait on me like a servant all of the time
|
But I know some people who actually serving time
|
Committed to this grind, or just committed some crime
|
Sometimes I wish some more time to think
|
And all the time in the world is all the time I need
|
And I know eternity's calling but my mind too busy racing to pay any mind
|
Spend a whole lot of money on a watch
|
Ironic cause I got it but I hardly sit and watch the time tick by
|
I spend time trying to buy it to own time
|
Never thought that I was only wasting my own time
|
Who holds time?
|
They say he'll be coming in no time
|
Pray I pay attention, cause I'm giving him no time
|
When the lights off, is anybody watching me?
|
Heard the man above never slumber, never sleep
|
|

[Verse 2:]
|
On the corners, in the alleys
|
I see coners and cowards
|
Scared to question their existence like ain't no final hour
|
Can we blame the sins of a reverend for all our irreverence?
|
Does my time spent on earth qualify me for heaven?
|
Did we tick him off by wasting all these ticks on this clock?
|
Or is he graciously giving me time to give him my heart?
|
I'm sure it's the latter, sure that it matters
|
And I believe I've been given all this time so I could try to redeem it
|
Or make the most of this stopwatch that I'm racing
|
You stop the watch you ain't racing
|
You erasing your minutes, you can't replace 'em
|
And at the end of your days when eternity's in your face
|
You'll have one life to offer up and it's service to lay to waste
|
So my Rollie's telling me to roll out
|
Make investments with my time while I'm tryna hold out
|
And fame, money, success be competing for my investments
|
But I can't take 'em with me when it's time for me to exit
|
