Lights off

Ain't nobody watching me

I heard about the man in the sky

But he probably fell asleep

Yeah, and you say Audemars, Audemars, Audemars

But still don't know the time that sun comes down from the stars

Yeah, they say that time waits for no man

Nah, hey probably lyin'

Cause time wait on me like a servant all of the time

But I know some people who actually serving time

Committed to this grind, or just committed some crime

Sometimes I wish some more time to think

And all the time in the world is all the time I need

And I know eternity's calling but my mind too busy racing to pay any mind

Spend a whole lot of money on a watch

Ironic cause I got it but I hardly sit and watch the time tick by

I spend time trying to buy it to own time

Never thought that I was only wasting my own time

Who holds time?

They say he'll be coming in no time

Pray I pay attention, cause I'm giving him no time

When the lights off, is anybody watching me?

Heard the man above never slumber, never sleep

On the corners, in the alleys

I see coners and cowards

Scared to question their existence like ain't no final hour

Can we blame the sins of a reverend for all our irreverence?

Does my time spent on earth qualify me for heaven?

Did we tick him off by wasting all these ticks on this clock?

Or is he graciously giving me time to give him my heart?

I'm sure it's the latter, sure that it matters

And I believe I've been given all this time so I could try to redeem it

Or make the most of this stopwatch that I'm racing

You stop the watch you ain't racing

You erasing your minutes, you can't replace 'em

And at the end of your days when eternity's in your face

You'll have one life to offer up and it's service to lay to waste

So my Rollie's telling me to roll out

Make investments with my time while I'm tryna hold out

And fame, money, success be competing for my investments

But I can't take 'em with me when it's time for me to exit
