Uh, lemme get a one-way ticket, haven't picked a destination

I'm just tryna catch the train before it has to leave the station

Packin' no bags, nothin' but the clothes on my back

With a cognac, let me sip it, tryna to relax

Red wine up in my glass plus filet mignon

I got army right up under me, i'm genghis khan

Yeah, it's me against the world, i guess i'll take them on

I might stop and see my girl, but i ain't stayin' long

What if i'm gone, what the fuck you gon' think then?

I told my story, put my life inside this ink pen

Said i'll make it big when, everybody know me

Well, i made it big and, everybody phony

Haha, so could you pour me, i need a cup

No, none of that liquor, mixin' purple stuff

I could talk my pain, but would it hurt too much

Go head, judge me, hate cost money, but this love free

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Looking at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Looking at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

So what the fuck is time?

Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (x2)

What do you do when you think you could be an icon?

Because all these people get to screamin' with the lights on

Like they just seen a ghost, earn my stripes, leave the coat (?)

Racin' to the gate but my flight gone

Now these writers taking shots without a nikon

But i don't fight though, figure it's a typo

Seems we in some shit now, gonna be alright though

Potion in my sprite, then my night slow, down down

See, that's exactly what i need

My khaki's filled with cheese, my homie sap is on the beat

Like it was "donald trump", a hit but i just call it love

They throw it on when i'm walking in the club

Hey, this the burgh shit, i don't deserve this

Well, i don't think you lookin' for me on the surface

Learn quick, now i'm big time

Fill your cup up, and i'mma sip mine

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Looking at the sky, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

They just dreams, turn 'em to reality

Double-cup of lean, standin' on my balcony

Looking at the street, thinkin' it could all be mine

All we got is memories, so what the fuck is time?

So what the fuck is time?

Ask 'em, what the fuck is time? (x2)
