Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Looking for a better life
All the things you sacrificed
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Searching for that paradise
Don't wanna get left behind
Looking at the hourglass watching as the sand falls
Time's running out and they just announced last call
Suspended in water soaking in the bath salts
Mind's in a trance, fantasizing of that cash vault
But I gotta stand tall, no problem I can't solve
Eyes on the prize, cuz my life's been throwing fastballs
Knowing that I am flawed, fingers on my hands crossed
Crawling cuz I can't walk all across the asphalt
Feels like I'm racing time
The finish line, I'll make it mine
Laying rhymes, rain or shine
Out here trying to make a dime
Looking for some recognition
I can feel the seconds ticking
Thank my lucky stars at night
That I am alive and blessed with wisdom
Every day I'm on this planet
Never taking them for granted
Some do, I don't understand it
Some are stranded
Some are handed cards they can't handle and can't manage
They're fragile and they panic
Some are damaged like the Titanic
Out in the North Atlantic, sinking
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Looking for a better life
All the things you sacrificed
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Searching for that paradise
Don't wanna get left behind
I lay down and I close my eyes
And I know that I'm a still photo on the rise
When I'm immobilized
Try to keep them opened wide
Lookin like I'm so surprised
Self portrait mortified
Setting fire to the skies
Exploding like a mortar or a mine
On a mission to find the point of life
Like a porcupine, so divine
No way I'm giving up, there's more to climb
Even though my back is hurting
Got a sore and bad contorted spine
Running from the horror of a poltergeist
Breaking through this polar ice
Now I'm hoping that my boat arrives
Cashing in my failures all the short comings and poor advice
Making my mark in this world
Like I'm stamped and notarized
So much order when composing rhymes, yea I'm so precise
Wish I wasn't borderline OCD and organized
Fighting through these stormy nights
Slicing like a sword or knife
Swear I must've been a Samurai in my former life
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Looking for a better life
All the things you sacrificed
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Searching for that paradise
Don't wanna get left behind
When you go through your entire life
And people doubt you
And everything you stand for
Don't ever listen to that bullshit
Only you know the real you
And what you're capable of
You control your own destiny
Shit, I've been on my own since I was 16
Lived on people's porches
Friend's houses
Even lived in a fucking group home
But you gotta do what you gotta do
Pick yourself up and make the best of a shitty situation
Somehow I still found a way to graduate
Joined the military
Which really straightened my ass out, ya know
You only got one life, don't let time pass you by
Go find your paradise
But shit... who am I to give advice
Bring the beat back
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Looking for a better life
All the things you sacrificed
Now we're running out of time
Got nobody by your side
Searching for that paradise
Don't wanna get left behind
