Yeah... ladies and gentlemen! (WHAT?)
|
Front to back, side to side
|
All my peoples.. we live!
|
(They say, PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WOOOOOORLD!)
|
GO!
|
|
[Rakaa Iriscience:]
|
Let me explain it, it's always right now, ain't it?
|
Graphic like a picture's worth a thousand words painted
|
Is watchin it pass by their pasttime?
|
Or push the fast lane 'til they flatline sayin it [beep]
|
They say that it flies, but daily get to the touch
|
You can repel it with a fingertip brush
|
Plus the long way usually starts with trying to take shortcuts
|
Chase 'til it runs, blindsided, brace for the rush
|
Wipe your feet before you walk through the door, watch your step
|
when your bridges burning, look at what these kids are learning
|
Cattle works the farm, what way's a sheep burden?
|
Orbit in the axis, tables keep turning
|
The world keeps spinnin, you're born runnin out of minutes
|
Shadow puppets on a sun dial, polymath out of limits
|
da Vinci pen it, Renaissance Man better livin
|
Better get it before "later" becomes "never did it"
|
|
[Chorus: cuts and scratches by DJ Babu]
|
"We keep gettin while the gettin is good" - [M1]
|
"With no spare time, forever's make records and jewels" - [Roc Marciano]
|
"We got the seeds of time, y'all!"
|
"It's now or never"
|
|
[Evidence:]
|
Am I, left behind or just the only to stay?
|
Once it's gone, it's impossible to find your way ("Let me try to explain it..")
|
You can have it all but can't collect it at once
|
What you want you use the worst and that's a curse on all fronts
|
More than these stunts than increasing the speed
|
Like the days teach much to what minutes didn't heed
|
Marathon, what the fuck is your lead? We ain't racing
|
That's you ahead of the beat, Pete, you being too impatient
|
I check my placement before I board
|
Let the odds even up before we settle the score
|
The word is out: we got war on the memory thief
|
I heard about a long life where the ending is brief
|
Known for healing, known for killing
|
The same reason I know there's no ceiling
|
The future is uncertain but the day is always near
|
So we tearing down these curtains when they try to interfere and it's time
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Outro: DJ Babu cuts and scratches]
|
"Let me explain it, it's always right now, ain't it?"
|
"Man let me try to explain it, it ain't deep!"
|
(TIME, PASSES, BY)
|
"You can have it all but can't collect it at once"
|
"Man let me try to explain this thang to you man!"
|
(TIME, PASSES, BY)
|
"Better get it before 'later' becomes 'never did it"'
