Be the Future - Five Years' Time (feat. Nolo & Ben Varney)

Just a little time
So fast, rushing
Chasin' the sun
Time flies

Five 'Am, the roseate blushin' of the sky
Six 'Am, the sunshine, my, oh my
Edging towards the noontide; running out of time
Don't have to face it, if so inclined
Eight 'Am, the mornin' tickin' down the drain (down the drain)
'Bout time the townsmen work 'n prime
Ten 'Am, the children hide n' seek n' find (seek n' find)
This ain't gon' be here in five years' time

Isn't it magical
Two people, both struggling with their own time and energy...dreams
Then this little happy conversation happens; out of nowhere
And for a few moments, it's as if none of that ever was

Y'know, it's all part of a funny game
After which nothing was quite the same
Did it matter? Flirting with a banter and a chatter
Where to next? No one cared.

I'm on my own, strollin' down this road
Too young to stop, too old to go
My love dreams? My own fantasies
Oh, just like me. A no-show.

But do think about my family
How lucky I'm to be, and simply be
And do think about my legacy
And society, and how we worship thee

None's of certain longevity
Yet we matter, once or twice
To a soul or to thine's five years' time
It'll feel quite empty, though really not

As a bottle of wine
Quite clouded by time
Yet in hindsight, 'tis just as fine
To those whose sentiments outweigh the mind
Life's not forgotten; 'tis simply refined

Should everything be lost in Five Years' Time
A me, a you, a lover, and a swine
We'd not be lost, and conversely so
We'd be a dazzle 'gainst the horizon of time

Five 'Am, the roseate blushin' of the sky
Six 'Am, the sunshine, my, oh my
Edging towards the noontide; running out of time
Don't have to face it, if so inclined

One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family

Eight 'Am, the mornin' tickin' down the drain (down the drain)
'Bout time the townsmen work 'n prime
Ten 'Am, the children hide n' seek n' find (seek n' find)
This ain't gon' be here'n five years' time

One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family

One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
One by one, and our family
