"Only A Matter Of Time" lyrics

"Only A Matter Of Time"

Look me in the eyes
Tell me you're not lying to me
See through your disguise
You can't keep on hiding from me
Time to make it right
So why are you still saying I'm wrong?
Well it's only a matter of time to set it straight
Time to tell the world that you've been lying on my name
Doing what you want and think you're gonna get away
Well I'll leave it up to faith for now

But it's only a matter of time
An eye for an eye, you'll go blind
And when did you stop being kind?
You twisted your words like a knife
Well I'm sure that you're hurting inside
Why would you make your pain mine?
You're making me pay for your crimes
Well darling I'll be fine
But it's only a matter of

It ain't over yet
You can't tear me down and act like I will just forget
When karma comes around then you'll be drowning in regret
But it's not about revenge tonight

But it's only a matter of time
An eye for an eye, you'll go blind
And when did you stop being kind?
You twisted your words like a knife
Oh

Pick myself up off the floor
You can't hurt me no more
Of this endless charade
I'm not playing your game
You can say what you like
Doesn't mean that you're right
Are you glad you got that out?
Do you feel better now?
Do you feel better now?

Time, an eye for an eye, you go blind
When did you stop being kind?
You twisted your words like a knife
Well I'm sure that you're hurting inside
Why would you make your pain mine?
You're making me pay for your crimes
Well darling I'll be fine
But it's only a matter of time

"Only a Matter of Time" is the second promotional single from Joshua Bassett's debut EP. The song and its video were premiered on the 29th of January 2021.
Joshua Bassett told about "Only a Matter of Time" on Instagram, "I wrote this song in the summer of 2020 in a moment in time where social media was bringing a lot of darkness to my life. It was healing to put my phone down, turn off the noise and just write. There's good that comes from social media, but it's also become a place where people can say anything about anyone, no matter how false or damaging with no accountability. We've gotta be much kinder to each other and recognize there are real people behind the screens!"
