Promises Lyrics by Matthew Bertram

Destiny

2020

Time's up, I've yet to keep my promise
Trust me, I haven't forgotten
I know, I've yet to remain honest
Broken promise is a lie

Believe me when I tell you that
I will follow through for you
As a matter of fact
I just need a little more time

Time is ticking
Likelihood is slipping
This is just the beginning

Tick tock, time is going by
You said that you'd give it a try
These words have become a lie
Good for you, one more year has gone by

So here we are again now
Nothing has changed since last year
Did you really think I could explain how
I keep on breaking all these promises

Time is ticking
Likelihood is slipping
This is just the beginning

Tick tock, time is going by
You said that you'd give it a try
These words have become your lie
Good for you, one more year goes by

Time's up for you
It's time to move
Need to improve
What am I gonna do?

Tick tock, time is going by
You said that you'd give it a try
These words have become your lie
Good for you, one more year goes by

Promises are broken each year
Apathy will persevere
