Time Stops

[Verse 1] I got four minutes to tell you that time is passing Before your very eyes, life is flashing by Didn't want the end to catch you by surprise Word to the wise, look to the skies And consider the obliteration of a nation Concentrating, you can see the page turn Everybody look real calm Though it may seem like nothing’s wrong I'm close to gone, you can't tell if I’m up or down I got two feet on the ground just sorta hanging around Anticipation, I'm a culmination, sittin', waitin', I'm gettin' impatient 'Cause I need to know right this moment what I'm holding on to Feeling all alone, is it a figment of a falsity? An illusion for all to see, for we need to [?] possibly There’s meaning and [?] hidden in this life we were [?] who am I kidding? I’m as scared as you are, but I wonder am I [?] too far? In murky seas, we all come and go, eternity, can't be controlled Contemplations are fake, breaking me down, it’s taking me low So when the singers sing and people shout So say a god damn thing, what's life about? You feel? Ignorance can't be bliss when it hurts like this [Chorus] Time stops for no one and you're one of billions Millions of people have crossed that road While a grandmother dies so an infant grows Time stops for no one and you’re one of billions Millions of people have walked that path Moments are golden, but they never last [Verse 2] Past, present, and future, they suture together To make a continuous state of ambiguous I can't deal with this unknown blackness, outer space, no steady place Vertigo's got a hold, I don't know where to go Do you know answers? No? I gotta recollect how my intellect has got me up to my neck in doubt, it's not over yet Driftwood in the ocean, lost to commotion Floating like a boat without a sail In sailing, I'm an aimless being And in sailing, I wanna seem serene Eons and epics and decades and [?] A breath away, a breath a day A loss of oxygen, a noxious straw, there's lots of them Chit-chat people constantly Talkin' 'em, blockin' 'em, watchin' 'em, clockin' em Tick-tick-tockin' 'em, time just stalkin' 'em, time just stoppin' 'em Inescapably, I got a dream and I wanna make it come true Trust me, must be completely on my terms But I don't know the rules of the universe Cursed so I write a verse, speaking my mind The only thing that's true is the passage of time Watches rewind, hands turn back The minutes of my life, sadness, as I reminisce How many moments of my past I might've missed [Chorus] Time stops for no one and you're one of billions Millions of people have crossed that road While a grandmother dies so an infant grows Time stops for no one and you're one of billions Millions of people have walked that path Moments are golden, but they never last [Verse 3] I'm aware of lots of things, but I feel real scared like constantly Listlessness and grocery lists and shit I gotta get to Missing the people that got taken from you While I forgive time, time doesn't I know that it was but I wish that it wasn't Even though you're gone, I won't stop loving But because you're gone, I keep on struggling One, one thousand, two, one thousand, three, one thousand, four A thousand more seconds of [?] that I can't help But try to keep score In conclusion, my confusion's elusive I'd understand that I'll never find the truth Except that living's no more than waiting to say goodnight Fade to black, take a bow Hey folks, show's over now, move on As the lights go out, no, I hope there's more to come Beyond the sun [Chorus] Time stops for no one and you're one of billions Millions of people have crossed that road While a grandmother dies so an infant grows Time stops for no one and you're one of billions Millions of people have walked that path Moments are golden, but they never last [Outro: Intro Reprise] So, instead of doing my normal intro on this take I'm just gonna, just gonna just say one little thing And that one little thing is [?] exorcism [Scream] That's all I'm gonna say, listen, okay I was born in Wilmette and I have a pet dog named Pepper He's a leper and I carry him around in a Tupperware box On my head is golden locks In my heart is a picture of my family Lost to divorce but we live pretty happily Eat no milk 'cause it makes me shite I wish NSYNC would reunite I'm a rap star and I'm gorgeous I write prose like Jorge Borges Poetry's flowing from my mouth like vomit Flaymation, Wallace and Gromit Blingity blang blang, ho in a handbag Obese rhymes, I spit sandbags In ninth grade, fetal pig dissection Sophomore year, got a yeast infection (Two times!) Haters be everywhere, they're all up in my hair Word to my people on Green Bay Road If you don't know, now you know, hey, hey You know what? (What?) That was the shit
