Father Time Lyrics by Abstract

Super Human

2018

[Verse 1]
Conscious hop through universes—hope that yours is doing well
Perspective tied so intricate to self, so I can't really tell
I don't think that everybody lives as present as we think
Time flows indeterminate, water from eight billion sinks
Freeze it like a hockey rink when tribulation comes to call
No fo-mo for slow-mo, 'less the oh-no has to do with "aw"
Heartbreak an eternity, but love condense a timeline
Love is happiness and we know fun will make the time fly
Father time, a sucker for the drama
He'll record it, play it back however many times he wanna
Causing us to question if we've ever left the scene
Anxiety a product of him making us believe
That to move forward ain't a choice of ours, but he deceives
It's godliness to not think of what was but what could be
Exit his hypnosis, 'cause the present's closest to your dreams
Every second presents exits, choose to let your slate be clean

[Bridge]
Let go
Let go, let go, let go
When it's tryna grab ahold, let it know who's in control
Let it go
Let go, let go, let go
Price of illumination is patience
Trust your guts but know you can't rush greatness
You got to
Believe it's temporary
You got to
Let it go

[Chorus]
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
You got to (you know that you got to)
You know that you got to (you know that you got to)
You know that you got to let this shit go

[Verse 2]
My mind's eye-wide to let in the sunshine
For a long time, I know that I used to draw blinds
Consumed in a dark room, convinced I could draw blind
Found out that my world was controlled by my own mind
Energy that you put out is the energy you receive
I ain't perfect, but my purpose learn to be a better me
If everybody did think how great the world would be
Inner reflection leading to less outward tension in the streets
No preconceived ideas about how anyone should be
Micro turns to macro, self-improvement moves to global peace
Made this album 'cause you gotta be the change you wanna see
And I wanna change a lot, so I guess I'll start with me

[Outro]
You see, I have let go
I was goin' through a lot, years back
I started making music as a way to vent
A way to navigate my reality at the time
Now music is my life, it's beautiful
