Race against time...

**[INTRO — LOW / SPOKEN]**

We dream about bein' untouchable…

Like time can't reach us.

But time don't miss…

**[VERSE 1 — CALM DRILL / LOW VOICE]**

I been tryna beat the clock, like the clock got hands on me,

Talkin' like I'm bulletproof, but time got plans for me.

Young, dumb, thinkin' forever's somewhere I can go,

Whole city chasin' paper, ain't nobody chasin' slow.

I seen day-ones turn ghosts, seen the real ones fade,

Same streets, different faces, same mistakes gettin' made.

We say “fuck tomorrow”, then we pray for one more day,

Funny how we fear the end, but keep wastin' what we save.

**[PAUSE — LET THE BEAT BREATHE]**

We wanna live forever…

But barely live today.

**[HOOK — MELODIC / DARK DRILL]**

We dream of bein' invincible…

But time got us in its sights.

We run like we can't lose…

Still losin' every night.

We dream of bein' invincible…

Like death don't know our name.

But time don't need no weapon…

It just waits…

Then takes.

**[VERSE 2 — MORE TECHNICAL / CONTROLLED DRILL]**

I don't fear gettin' old, I fear wastin' what I got,

'Cause the clock don't care about the money in the vault.

You can flex a hundred chains, can't put seconds on a lock,

Can't buy back one minute when that minute's gone and lost.

Everybody want the crown, nobody countin' the cost,

Tryna turn pain into profit, still ain't knowin' what it cost.

We call it “livin' fast”, maybe we scared of slow,

If you gotta run from time, tell me where you finna go?

**[BREAK — ALMOST WHISPERED]**

Time don't hate you…

Time don't love you…

It just moves.

**[HOOK — BIGGER / MELODIC]**

We dream of bein' invincible…

But time got us in its sights.

We run like we can't lose…

Still losin' every night.

We dream of bein' invincible…

Like death don't know our name.

But time don't need no weapon…

It just waits…

Then takes.

**[OUTRO — LOW / SPACED]**

We wanted forever…

Maybe forever

was never ours.
