Текст песни Time - KV

Time

On the tape, I had asked, «where you see yourself in ten?»
Since then, had some friends in the box and some in the pen
'Lot of people depending on downfalls to breathe again
'Lot of people I dropped, they tried to see me descend
And when some friends are feelin' needy, I’m always a hand to lend
But some people just get to greedy and take it to an extent
Some only talk when they need me, and then they try to pretend
Like they’ve been waitin' to see me, so we could catch up again
I ain’t ever ask for love, I don’t even ask for much
I stay humble and generous, people try to boil my blood
Try to take control of the music, just because of their lust
For where the money is truly and so they try to construct
New routes for you to take, in hopes that you’re in a rush
To get some money in your pockets with a contract they’ll cook up
And if you don’t read that contract, guaranteed, you’ll be stuck
And if I stuck with the agreements, I’d make Pop for y’all to bump
I cannot make this up, I don’t got to tell a fib
We were put in the position, where we almost lost the crib
My brother fell to the system, they tried to give him a bid
Fifteen years in prison, to justify what he did
We used to say, we gon' be the first to do it big
Promise to never get caught up and change the way we live
I had to talk to him straight, what happened to the plan?
He could’ve went to the league, it wasn’t in his demands
Things changin' up with the fam, I wasn’t ready
Used to say they were all good, but they were never steady
See my older cousin expressed all her feelings already
A drunken night, explained why she no longer bang with us heavy
Said people go their ways, don’t you ever think that it’s envy
Memories lost, so we move like we don’t even have any
Couple family members didn’t get invites to the weddin'
But that’s a whole different story, that ain’t mine for the tellin'
I never crack against the pressure
I never fold even with losses, I know that nothing last forever
I don’t have time to lose my focus
Keep my mind from being broken
They say my heart’s never open
I said a lot of y’all, think y’all got the best men
'Lot of y’all, surrounded by some yes men
Who just try to, act like they’re your bestfriend
But they just tryna, make the best investments
If that’s your hustle, no knocking ya
But some of y’all just feenin' to be known by the popular
People will do what they gotta do til their clock is up
It’s either you, ridin' with the Zone or don’t rock with us
'Lot of y’all second guessing, 'lot of artist in question
'Lot of things that I peep, kind of changed my perception
'Lot of y’all only speak, but fail to show the obsession
To ever put in the work, and get the things y’all been stressin'
'Lot of y’all like to creep, 'lot of y’all like to sleep
Some of y’all hate these words, because they’re coming from me
Some tried breakin' me down, because they’re lackin' belief
What they had failed to see, is I ain’t ever been weak
Never rush the greatness, know that patience is key
Wildin' in this game, just know I’m playing for keeps
Make a million moves without making a peep
No competition man, you better off just taking a seat
I’m very rare when it comes to the stakes
But I’m, well done when it comes to the plate
I’ll never, sell my soul, just to get me some cake
But I’ve been sacrificing leisure just to make sure I’m great
I never crack against the pressure
I never fold even with losses, I know that nothing last forever
I don’t have time to lose my focus
Keep my mind from being broken
They say my heart’s never open
Love all, but trust none
Believe in yourself, and never lose faith in others
Settle for nothing but the best
And give One hundred and ten percent in everything you do
Find your purpose in life, and live it
So keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself
Keep it to yourself (x2)
I’ve been studying life
Doin' everything I can, to make sure that’s right
People tell me, this a gamble, I ain’t too scared to try
Take a risk, life is over in the blink of an eye
Go and pick up the die
My only fear is time, it’s too stealthy
Staring at the clock, it honestly doesn’t help me
Seventeen, I said at Twenty-three I’ll be wealthy
I passed Twenty-three, not rich, but I’m alive and I’m healthy
Guess you can kind of say that it’s the same
Tryna stack my money, flip it right, maintain
Couple people want me switch up, switch cars, switch lanes
But, not to see me flex, for me to throw this down the drain
And flush this all down
The funny thing about this expedition
Is the people that will always try to hound, me for
Picking up this route cause, they don’t see the proof that
I can show the world my own sound
They hoping that it flakes
And then they mention greats
And said I can’t be one, cause they were possessing traits
Basically tryna tell me, that I don’t have what it takes
My mind is a deadly weapon, I’ll never let it just waste
My sister had a baby, his dreams I’ll always embrace
His mother was a teacher to me, showed me all the ways
Gave me all this knowledge and I just learned how to pace
So I owe it all to him, cause I see her inside his face
I never crack against the pressure
I never fold even with losses, I know that nothing last forever
I don’t have time to lose my focus
Keep my mind from being broken
They say my heart’s never open
