Hourglass |
Like minutes |
Years pass by and we still don’t get it |
Try to ignore |
Man, you know how them cowards are |
Yo |
(Sand in the hourglass) |
Yo |
Look at them trying to ignore |
Like as if the skill don’t exist |
Look at you, man |
You’re so |
Get respect where it’s due |
Grab my hat |
Tip the bill |
Stressed out like life |
Was just bitches and bills |
Real shit |
Never act like it’s just a drill |
Some ain’t seen life straight |
Can’t resist the pills |
That’s the deal |
When you’re chasing that |
Mass appeal |
Fears |
Might not |
Always get you |
But you have its will |
Going mad trying to protect your needs |
Veins popping out your neck like a steroid freak |
And you know that your daemons are there poised |
Deep |
Hidden away |
Waiting to take you a part |
Man, their ploy’s |
Deeper than a baby in a shallow grave |
Mother with dirt and blood on her hands |
Tapping veins |
Can’t deny things are that nature |
Because they happen day after day |
Ignoring that won’t make it fade |
Spitting gas by a naked flame |
Put 'em out in a head dress |
I dance and make it rain |
Make it storm |
Matter fact |
Make it monsoon |
Like gorilla |
While you’re spitting |
I’ll be hissing like a bomb fuse (Hiss) |
Look, man, I’m in the wrong mood |
Never could just nod, say 'Yeah' and look amused |
Think you’re dropping knowledge because you read a book or two |
But been distracted from shit you should be looking to |
And contenders I put 'em through Hell |
When I cast you away like the judge threw the book at you |
Like the judge threw the book at you |
And you were sent away for some years |
Days pass by in what feels like minutes |
Years pass by and we still don’t get it |
Or try to ignore |
Man, you know how them cowards are |
Slipping |
And we’re all sand in the hourglass |
Days pass by in what feels like minutes |
Years pass by and we still don’t get it |
Or try to ignore |
Man, you know how them cowards are |
Slipping |
And we’re all sand in the hourglass |
Ayo |
Once so many hours pass |
Sands falling in the hourglass |
Living out a shallow past |
I never realised |
Quite how short an hour lasts |
Till I treated death like |
''Ave a laugh!' |
And now |
That’s weight off my shoulders |
Like an avalanche |
So you gotta do you best when you have the chance |
Because next minute you missed your chance |
And I just gotta see your face to really see |
Just how pissed you are |
We in the playground |
Playing with death |
Greeting each step |
With fear, hate, waste and regret |
Shit |
I’m watching years to by |
To 23 from 5 in the blink of an eye |
Woah! |
Wow! |
Were we living a lie? |
Nah, I still remember the feeling |
I feel it inside |
Because me and Verbs laughing |
Like my nan’s alive |
Playing |
Making castles in the sands of time |
Where seconds turn to minutes |
Minutes turn to hours |
Hours turn to days |
Days turn to months |
Months turn to years |
Till it’s your retirement day |
Cheers! |
And you realised you ain’t smiled in 8 years |
Woah! |
9 to 5 got you dead alive |
Living dead, dead living |
Corporate paradise |
Woah! |
It’s got me sitting here thinking about my past |
How we’re all sand in the hourglass |
Days pass by in what feels like minutes |
Years pass by and we still don’t get it |
Or try to ignore |
Man, you know how them cowards are |
Slipping |
And we’re all sand in the hourglass |
Days pass by in what feels like minutes |
Years pass by and we still don’t get it |
Or try to ignore |
Man, you know how them cowards are |
Slipping |
And we’re all sand in the hourglass |
