No time to waste time, no time to think I pray to the bassline let me stay inspired but it's gone in a blink No promises, no common sense It's all a myth and I fall for it And I sink Not a moment to putz around No ifs, ands, or buts about it I'm busting out but just trust the doubt I open up then I'm shutting down Am I dope enough? Uncloaking my broken up soul And hoping they show me love I'm rolling up tough with my shoulders puffed Like I won't give up, but no duh I do not give a fuck where I'm ending up I been in the dumps given lumps from the beginning When I give in I'm giving up Set an expectation but never living up to it Stuck in a ditch, struggle to get myself up it but son it's a bitch Failing to nail it I'm hitting my thumb Can't set sail, no wind in them And I'm winded from it, witness him deflate Sick of running cyclical in place Give him something difficult to face And bitch I run with kicks that aren't laced Trip and tumble skidding on my face Getting up and tripling the haste Sprint to the end of the tunnel but somehow it's funneling further away Ain't no time to waste time, no time to think I pray to the bassline let me stay inspired but it's gone in a blink No promises, no common sense It's all a myth and I fall for it And I sink I push the pen again from left to right But just get blue when I read 'tween the lines I finely etch, the final stretch in sight Then the pile on my desk climbs a mile high Time's ticking by and I'm stuck like a sitting duck But I wish I could fly Run like a chicken with a lost head Then cross the deadline and die Make no mistake of it, I'm breaking in these vacant kicks Till my ankles are aching and I'm quaking in them Making my way to the end, then suddenly the lane extends And I'm hanging in, and cranking the pace up But I run into quicksand Aim to remain afloat, I get thrown a rope Then I choke when I'm hanged with it, shit No time to waste time, no time to think I pray to the bassline let me stay inspired but it's gone in a blink No promises, no common sense It's all a myth and I fall for it And I sink
