It seems like lately time be beatin' my a** Every step is like a right hook from Iron Mike Tyson in his prime It's like my mind is on a tredmill I'm sweatin' bullets See the plug but I can't pull it This belt just keeps bringin' me back And every minute is like a 'tiger uppercut' from Sagat I'm up against these ropes And ain't no tellin' if I win or not These gloves are getting heavy It's fight or flight you know how that goes Facin' clocks is chasin' Got me dodgin' obstacles And every hour is like a tightrope I walk with greasy shoes Still yet I got my conscience tellin' me that I can't lose So every time I start slippin' ego's start trippin' I focus real hard and levitate just like I'm GOD And I'm livin' lovely, I'm in the clouds no one above me With the gift to differentiate snakes from those that love me There's a thin line between happiness and hopeless An even thinner line between on point and out of focus BUT Back to my story about my fall from glory And how I levitate from the fate time put before me They say 'Be patient' But what the f** is patience when my heart is racin'? Put yourself in my situation Try to be humble, you won't refrain from getting' pissed When you look down to see you're fallin' right through time's abyss And start to see visions Memories you really miss, simple things Like your first birthday wish Your first girlfriend Your first love Your first French kiss Your first time feeling hate The first time you got dissed Your first day of school Your very first college cla** Your first time touchin' titties First time you got a** Your first time learnin' wrong from right First lonely night The first time you got your a** whooped in Your first real fight Your first triple-double dare Your first pubic hair Your first time watchin' Jason Your first nightmare That's when you realize that time was your worst nightmare And now you're stuck asking yourself 'Why ain't life fair?' You get closer to the bottom, see the end of your line Your first time ever losin' this battle with time But right before you meet your d**h, one more memory left The only one that's obsolete was your first breath One moon to the next Clocks switch when you least expect it and make the simplest sh** complex The baby face got the planet fooled Books get judged by the covers worldwide, coincide with the illest The real is just fictional dreams No time to deal with two dimensional fiends, sh** hit's the fan with every Click of a hand I'll be a man eventually When the kid in me is satisfied, but 'til the day arrives all I got is Eighty-five A clock can k** motivation That's why I'm never rockin' a watch What's a deadline when you're living on your own time? I'm livin' slow, Peter Pan style son You didn't know I never grow up My mind is set at six years old As far as I'm concerned this grown-up sh** is for the birds So pa** the skittles, JuJu Fruits, the Now N Laters, and Nerds I'm eatin' sweets until my teeth fall out and I can't see And I'm deaf in my left ear but my right can hear cause I'm livin' happily. So why you mad at me? Cause your frustrations gave you grey hairs 99% of your life's spent chasin' American nightmares, (GET THE fu*k OUT OF HERE) I'm crazy childish, just check the habits I play with my food, pick my nose, and eat it damn it Plus I pick my scabs, I be the first to pop a blister Cause I'm more immature than that cat from Sister-Sister If my parents tell me no I'm gonna do it anyway Experience will make more sense than anything that they could ever say Forever playin' video games until I'm sleepy Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, please, you'll never beat me So basically you're better off paying a bill or somethin' Your mind is elderly, forty over the hill or somethin' I'm young at heart, I'ma forever be a kid I'm on some Tom Hanks sh** You ever seen the movie big? My heart is trapped in '85 the coolest place I've ever been in my life We watchin' Smurfs, eatin' cinnamon LIFE Never knew a crack rock, cause it was Fraggle The only pink p**y we knew was Snaggle Your mind's in the dirt We playin' Hungry-Hippo's 'til our hands hurt What do you know about pourin' out a whole box of Trix to get the toy out (Scared to) go to sleep cause somethin's under your bed (And all it) took was one look to get them thoughts out your head (And then ya') fall right to sleep without a worry in mind (That's why I) Can't understand why cat's be hurryin' time And I don't wanna grow up I'm a Crab Apple Kid And I enjoy the company of people I relate wit' But if it comes down to it To deal with cat's that I despise I just close my eyes and drift away to Eighty-Five One moon to the next Clocks switch when you least expect it and make the simplest sh** complex The baby face got the planet fooled Books get judged by the covers worldwide, coincide with the illest The real is just fictional dreams No time to deal with two dimensional fiends sh** hit's the fan with every click of a hand I'll be a man eventually When the kid in me is satisfied But 'til the day arrives all I got is eighty-five
