[Verse 1: Via Rosa]
Slip-slip-slipping away
Memories, they escape from me
Faster then the eye can blink
And I'm lost with new beginnings
This is the ending of the present
While [?] for the past
Is this, is this your idea?
Is this your idea, of the past?
[Hook: Via Rosa]
Time, time is cold
Time it knows, no, no, no mercy
Time, time is brave and it takes life
And its gonna be a long way back from here
It's gonna be a long way back for me
It's gonna be a long way back from here
[Verse 2: Mick Jenkins]
Homies was cracking cars and I just wanted my summer to crack
This was back when Lil B was running the pack
Matter fact, it was me, DJ, Devin, and Slim
Cataracts couldn't see [?] backtrack
Matter fact we was we were [??]
n***a been had that, n***a been off that
n***a cop water them, get cash back
Then I get sauced on 'em
So you gotta excuse me madam
If there's something in my teeth it's probably cause I never flossed on 'em
I-I-I ain't never wanna get lost on 'em
Cause n***as take they mind and they hand it to 'em
Truth sounds so outlandish to 'em
I take a bow to the face then chase with a prayer
Lord, let me say the words that's in a panic [?]
Cause if you moving a hundred twenty miles
Twenty four hours, that sh** gonna start to seem slow
Your eyes get adjusted to the blindness
And that sh** get distorted even more
Start f**ing with THC
Water won't cut it with no contact high
Drink up my n***a, drink up
Keep up my n***a, keep up
Cause it's gonna be a long way back for me
It's gonna be a long way back
It's gonna be a long way back from here
[Hook: Via Rosa]
[Verse 3: TheMIND]
Time won't let it [?] it away
[?] I don't wanna get [?] away
What do you say memory?
What the moon, [???], symphony
Where you in my dream?
[??]
[??], if only
Only memories last today
What do you say memory?
What does [?], [??], symphony
I-I-I, I play you in my dreams
But I see you in my life
That's the, that's the, only memory
