BraedenV - Borrowed Time

Got one favor that I need to ask
Take a moment to take that mask
At long last
Once upon a time I slept through class
Now I'm seeing quite the contrast
Now I'm trying to awake the mass
For far too long I sat back
Watched the clouds above getting overcast
But I'm weathered now I'm built to last
I've held my ground I'm standing fast
I'm feeling so iconoclast
We'll see who has the last laugh
We'll see whose stuck living in the past
When I put this damn world on blast
I'm raining down these rap tracks
This brainstorm wasn't on forecast
And that's that
Don't waste this life watching the clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye upon that clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
From starting line to chopping block
You never know when you might drop
Don't waste your life watching those clocks
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye up on that clock
This Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
You never know when it might stop

Not all sunny days and palm trees
I had black clouds and storm seas
I slept through the dark dreams
But I woke when I heard your screams
I was there for you
Were you there for me?
When I needed you
You were absentee
I knew my time was vanishing
So I have to reach my apogee
I've overcome these tragedies
These years weren't always kind to me
That's why I've got these lines you see
That's why my eyes aren't smiling
But I have to keep on trying
To see the silver lining
I won't let the past define me
I simply do not have the timing

Don't waste your life watching that clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye upon that clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
From starting line to chopping block
You never know when you might drop
Don't waste this life watching those clocks
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye up on that clock
This Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
You never know when it might stop

Don't waste your life watching that clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye upon that clock
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
From starting line to chopping block
You never know when you might drop
Don't waste this life watching those clocks
Cause Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
Don't listen to them when they say stop
Don't keep an eye up on that clock
This Borrowed Time is all you've got
Wasting this ride comes at a cost
You never know when it might stop
