[Chorus: n16thekid] There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends I hope I'm there before it's too late Before my brothers drink a sip of Jones's Kool-aid (hey) There's no time for a respite (no) There's no time for a respite (hey) There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends [Verse 1: n16thekid] I don't understand how people say "It's never too late" Because it's been three days and I haven't seen grace Maybe it's the guilt, the self blame, the lies The fact I couldn't stop another from taking her life And no, I didn't know the person, but I know that she was 12 And I know the world was watching as she cried and killed herself I wish I would have known her; I wish I could have helped I wish I could have showed her all the value that she held K-N-D, but not the kid next door Just a child who prayed the world would see she needed it's support Terrified of living, sees death in her tunnel vision She's speaking but no one listens 'til she broadcasts her decision And the mom recalls it all because she finally can see her Saying "Sorry" to Melinda cause she didn't speak either I reiterate, how can you say "It's never too late"? 'Cause if it's not then tell me how to change this little girl's fate [Chorus: n16thekid] There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends I hope I'm there before it's too late Before my brothers drink a sip of Jones's Kool-aid (hey) There's no time for a respite (no) There's no time for a respite (hey) There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends [Verse 2: CstacksDinero] They prayin' on my downfall, just know that ain't my fate Thanking God every day 'cause this can all be gone away So before it's too late I got a chance to be great Don't let em know your next move. That's when they plottin' like snakes So I grind every day, Ya boy ain't takin' no breaks "There's no time for a respite," like my homie Troy say Thinking 'bout my next hit, we in the booth every day Just spittin' from the heart, the music takes me away I'm ballin' hard like KD, the type I'm destined to be Y'all better watch out for this young bull from 4-2-3 I know my time's gonna come before it's all said and done So let me rock the mic and set it off like Rev Run D-M-C, you know I'm in the place to be Can't stop me from reaching my destiny So before this song ends, and the rest ends I'm on a mission to success and the journey begins [Chorus: n16thekid] There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends I hope I'm there before it's too late Before my brothers drink a sip of Jones's Kool-aid (hey) There's no time for a respite (no) There's no time for a respite (hey) There's no time for a respite I have to finish this all before the rest ends
