I got these deadlines
I got these deadlines
Where do I get time
I don't know
High stakes
Everything's so fast paced
Live and die for that finish line
But I'm feeling like I'm in last place
Rat race
Everybody's ahead of me
Can't have breaks,
Steadily go and get degrees
So at twenty-three you'll be fail-safe
Set for life
High salary, nice family
Got some kids, a wife
How can't it be my fantasy, right
Foolproof, it's a safe bet
Time is money you don't waste that
Shit is due soon fuck a rain check
The clock is ticking
I'm trying not to listen
But it's just hard dismissing it
When the competition is so loud
I want it to slow down
But time keeps flying by
I watch my peers
Now they've all got careers
Can we just stop the years
I live in constant fear
I'm too slow, I got a way to go
But I need far more time
Cause, uh
I got these deadlines approaching fast
I gotta get mine before they pass
Running out of time, why don't shit last
Let's slow down please
I got these deadlines they creeping up
I'm feeling stressed life is speeding up
No time for red lights I need to rush
Let's slow down
I'm eating time up
And I'm determined to finish
I'm grabbing seconds for seconds
A minute serving of minutes
I got it lined up
Munch months for lunch
A decadent decade for dinner
In a rush, a crunch
I'm getting, dazed and weak from days and weeks
Regretting, weight from years I can't repeat
I'm letting, everything get to me
Recipe for disaster
Head's been deep in the past, I
Guess i need to go fast huh
The clock is ticking
I'm trying not to listen
But it's just hard dismissing it
When the competition is so loud
I want it to slow down
But time keeps flying by
I watch my peers
Now they've all got careers
Can we just stop the years
I live in constant fear
I'm too slow, I got a way to go
But I need far more time
Cause, uh
I got these deadlines approaching fast
I gotta get mine before they pass
Running out of time, why don't shit last
Let's slow down please
I got these deadlines they creeping up
I'm feeling stressed life is speeding up
No time for red lights I need to rush
Let's slow down
I got these deadlines
I got these deadlines
Where do I get time
I don't know
I got these deadlines approaching fast
I gotta get mine before they pass
Running out of time, why don't shit last
Let's slow down
