Lyrics
Better check the time before it all flies by
You only get so many ticks when the limit's sky high
I'mma do my best to try to leave behind a legacy
That represents me and trickles down the family
I came from nothin' and built my way to somethin'
Still got a ways to go still under construction
Lost some family but gained some loved ones
Means (?) homie down to lower me in the ground
Quality over quantity keeps my mind at rest
And at best keep the pressure off my chest
Truly blessed how everything turned out
'Cause the truth of the matter is I had my doubts
I used to move these streets like a dog off a leash
You know they say music becomes a savage beast
I ain't the one to preach most def' not the one to teach
But if I reach through speech I'mma keep it tongue and cheek
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
Not enough hours in the day for all the plots and schemes
Time flies procrastination got my lock and keys
Opportunities passin' me by on this bizarre ride
No longer in the drivers seat of life's car ride
A scrub trying to regain control usin' this vehicle
If music, well if you don't use it you lose it
The true test earnin' that pole position for the checkered flag
Passion's the main motivation and not to get the bag
Generally speaking it's apparent in me
With each door shut I've still drive like the General Lee
Clock's tickin' two hands overlappin' with time
When plot thickens my true fans second guessin' my grind
Without a doubt in the midst of this drought
The perfectionist in me battles the will to just put the dish out
Holdin' on to all that otherwise should be given to y'all
As time slips away father time's got a grip on my balls
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
You know the slogan, time waits for no man
So go for what you don't 'cause what you reap is what you sow
Catchin' what I'm throwin', pickin' up what I'm puttin' down
It's simple ain't it, yeah I like that sound
If anything, these times set me straight
A new slate to contemplate, I'm fresh out the gate
Won't catch me starin' at another man's plate
And even if I'm starvin' I'mma act like I ate
Top put it straight everything's on the up 'n up
Don't believe in luck or gettin' stuck like a suction cup
I'm takin' life's uppercuts
Always got up, a few broken bones, eye's swelled shut
We ain't all cut from the same cloth
Some find a way then there's those that's lost
Know what cost will it take to live your life
Off the blocks like a pistol pops then I take flight
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(Middle finger to the man, I'm holdin' up my own)
(The energy to keep it movin' be one of the best)
(There's enough hours in the day)
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
(There's enough hours in the day)
(Time waits for no man, what's your plan?)
