Time Stops Lyrics by K.Flay

Suburban Rap Queen

2005

[Verse 1]
I got four minutes to tell you that time is passing
Before your very eyes, life is flashing by
Didn't want the end to catch you by surprise
Word to the wise, look to the skies
And consider the obliteration of a nation
Concentrating, you can see the page turn
Everybody look real calm
Though it may seem like nothing’s wrong
I'm close to gone, you can't tell if I’m up or down
I got two feet on the ground just sorta hanging around
Anticipation, I'm a culmination, sittin', waitin', I'm gettin' impatient
'Cause I need to know right this moment what I'm holding on to
Feeling all alone, is it a figment of a falsity?
An illusion for all to see, for we need to [?] possibly
There’s meaning and [?] hidden in this life we were [?] who am I kidding?
I’m as scared as you are, but I wonder am I [?] too far?
In murky seas, we all come and go, eternity, can't be controlled
Contemplations are fake, breaking me down, it’s taking me low
So when the singers sing and people shout
So say a god damn thing, what's life about? You feel?
Ignorance can't be bliss when it hurts like this

[Chorus]
Time stops for no one and you're one of billions
Millions of people have crossed that road
While a grandmother dies so an infant grows
Time stops for no one and you’re one of billions
Millions of people have walked that path
Moments are golden, but they never last

[Verse 2]
Past, present, and future, they suture together
To make a continuous state of ambiguous
I can't deal with this unknown blackness, outer space, no steady place
Vertigo's got a hold, I don't know where to go
Do you know answers? No?
I gotta recollect how my intellect has got me up to my neck in doubt, it's not over yet
Driftwood in the ocean, lost to commotion
Floating like a boat without a sail
In sailing, I'm an aimless being
And in sailing, I wanna seem serene
Eons and epics and decades and [?]
A breath away, a breath a day
A loss of oxygen, a noxious straw, there's lots of them
Chit-chat people constantly
Talkin' 'em, blockin' 'em, watchin' 'em, clockin' em
Tick-tick-tockin' 'em, time just stalkin' 'em, time just stoppin' 'em
Inescapably, I got a dream and I wanna make it come true
Trust me, must be completely on my terms
But I don't know the rules of the universe
Cursed so I write a verse, speaking my mind
The only thing that's true is the passage of time
Watches rewind, hands turn back
The minutes of my life, sadness, as I reminisce
How many moments of my past I might've missed

[Chorus]
Time stops for no one and you're one of billions
Millions of people have crossed that road
While a grandmother dies so an infant grows
Time stops for no one and you're one of billions
Millions of people have walked that path
Moments are golden, but they never last

[Verse 3]
I'm aware of lots of things, but I feel real scared like constantly
Listlessness and grocery lists and shit I gotta get to
Missing the people that got taken from you
While I forgive time, time doesn't
I know that it was but I wish that it wasn't
Even though you're gone, I won't stop loving
But because you're gone, I keep on struggling
One, one thousand, two, one thousand, three, one thousand, four
A thousand more seconds of [?] that I can't help
But try to keep score
In conclusion, my confusion's elusive
I'd understand that I'll never find the truth
Except that living's no more than waiting to say goodnight
Fade to black, take a bow
Hey folks, show's over now, move on
As the lights go out, no, I hope there's more to come
Beyond the sun

[Chorus]
Time stops for no one and you're one of billions
Millions of people have crossed that road
While a grandmother dies so an infant grows
Time stops for no one and you're one of billions
Millions of people have walked that path
Moments are golden, but they never last

[Outro: Intro Reprise]
So, instead of doing my normal intro on this take
I'm just gonna, just gonna just say one little thing
And that one little thing is
[?] exorcism [Scream]
That's all I'm gonna say, listen, okay

I was born in Wilmette and I have a pet dog named Pepper
He's a leper and I carry him around in a Tupperware box
On my head is golden locks
In my heart is a picture of my family
Lost to divorce but we live pretty happily
Eat no milk 'cause it makes me shite
I wish NSYNC would reunite
I'm a rap star and I'm gorgeous
I write prose like Jorge Borges
Poetry's flowing from my mouth like vomit
Flaymation, Wallace and Gromit
Blingity blang blang, ho in a handbag
Obese rhymes, I spit sandbags
In ninth grade, fetal pig dissection
Sophomore year, got a yeast infection (Two times!)
Haters be everywhere, they're all up in my hair
Word to my people on Green Bay Road
If you don't know, now you know, hey, hey

You know what? (What?) That was the shit
