[intro Prince Teddy]
|
What is time? Time is when a man is trying to make time with your
|
woman
|
but your doing time behind bars and your time is standing still. Yo
|
Frost kick it to these people for real you know what I'm saying?
|
[verse 1 Frost]
|
Time sits through the hour glass through night and day
|
and I watch as the games people play
|
It's like do unto others than split
|
and if you can't back up what you say then you ain't shit (yeah)
|
I've seen the manifestations of the street
|
so why can't I confess what I see on a drumbeat
|
like just last night (yo what happened)
|
I watched these two vatos get in a crazy fight
|
one of them was quick to pull a knife
|
he stabbed him in the heart and now he's doing life
|
in prison at the age of 21 (yeah)
|
living on death row cause he couldn't let go
|
caught in the web of violence (damn)
|
roll deep when they creep, and move in silence of the lambs (yo)
|
a tattooed tear dropped as the iron gates slam
|
[chorus - Bill Withers & Frost]

[verse 2 - Frost]
|
Damn, damn ain't that a shame?
|
you're lost so take the caution don't play the game
|
should've listen to the Frost when I was trying to come across to you
|
but no you didn't think (sucker)
|
you just keep getting yourself more deep until you sink
|
so there's no one else to thank but yourself
|
so go ahead take bow for a job well done
|
but you'll never see the day of the sunshine or the fun times
|
just the old days and your old ways
|
corrupt and wicked
|
out there doing dirt, instead of just kicking it
|
pow pow bang bang and all that noise (yeah)
|
yeah you and all your homeboys
|
take time to read between the lines
|
cause ain't no sunshine
|
[chorus]
|
[verse 3 - Frost]
|
(yo kid) I know about being macho
|
callin' the shots the big time head honcho (yeah)
|
but here's something even more gacho
|
one of my homeboys is your old lady Sancho
|
yo shit happens
|
I know the lights of all these people right as I'm rapping
|
while you sit in a cell writing a letter
|
saying when you get out, your things will be better (right)
|
but man she couldn't wait
|
so she's going out on a date
|
with every Tom, Dick, and Harry
|
and if you ask me, your shit's getting scary
|
so how you gonna handle this
|
when your home's in Los Angeles
|
acting so scandalous
|
yo, you can't blame her you didn't take the time
|
and now, ain't no sunshine
