"RUNNING LATE FREESTYLE"

No more overseas, 'cause we been overlooking every little detail
It's getting played out, saying that I mean well, I mean, well
You see it in black and white, coming and swim with the orca
I don't migrate for the season
Stay where I am like I'm paraplegic
Tryna hold still for the incisions
Every fall I took I had to learn from my decisions
Cuts and bruises, scars and wounds but, still, I'ma do it in God's time
It'll be all fine
Baby just landed, new understanding, treating the family like a catch, I'm keeping it off line
Ain't got the time for basics
Why would I waste my lasik?
Or my amazing graces?
With all of the trials I'm facing
Face it, golden ages, I can almost taste it
Ran from it long enough in your asics
Operating like I'm sick from my patients
But I wouldn't switch places
Big love from all of the heartaching

Calendar suffers when I'm stuck in my mind
Hard to believe another 365
Looking for stoppage and I couldn't say why
She say you better clock it
Since you obsessed with time
Yeah
Since you obsessed with time
Since you obsessed with—

Your innocence ain't working to your benefit
You reminisce on times you wasn't in it yet
It's two sides to the story, they gon' intersect
If one side gets the glory, that's an intercept
Tick, tick, I'm on the clock
Ego got stripped to the floor, so hard to watch
On time, on the dot
Prayers for the circle trying to smooth out a rough spot
You can tell from the smoke and the air
That my offering is heavy
Still with every drop, I know I'm close to break the levy
Hope you get me
When I'm gone, pray you don't forget me
Look, I know I'm overdue for a cry
But baby just came, so I'm trying to make time
The elements are with me, so I'm trying to make fire
The hourglass moving, so I'm trying to utilize
Been brutalized, crucified
Double-crossed by myself, but if you ask, I'd do it twice
To get me where I'm supposed to go
If I was waiting on you, I would never know

Calendar suffers when I'm stuck in my mind
Hard to believe another 365
Looking for stoppage and I couldn't say why
She say you better clock it
Since you obsessed with time
Yeah
Since you obsessed with time
Since you obsessed with—

You live your life like you got time
With a thunder lightning strikes
And the pendulum swings right
It's do or die
You choose which side
You can get lost in your mind
Or you can let the spirit guide
