[Verse 1] I was sent here for a reason It's understood to say the least Some call me God's secret But God calls me the king I ain't here to be your friend But we're in this world together Don't waste me tryna figure me out 'Cause we both ain't got forever [Chorus] And I don't give a damn 'bout your perfect plan Your milestone rendezvous I'll drag my feet when life gets tough and when it's good I'll fly right through I'll make you cry, make you laugh Thе more I leave, I'll lеave you wantin' me back And I'll never listen like you want me to, but I'll tell the truth You don't tell time, time tells you, yeah [Verse 2] Today is my remains That's who I'll always be Tomorrow's what you call a mystery Yesterday's just the old me If you think that flash on your phone Is enough to tie me down It's 'bout damn time you woke up And made the most of me right now [Chorus] 'Cause I don't give a damn 'bout your perfect plan Your milestone rendezvous Yeah, I'll drag my feet when life gets tough and when it's good I'll fly right through I'll make you cry, make you laugh The more I leave, I'll leave you wantin' me back And I'll never listen like you want me to, but I'll tell the truth You don't tell time, time tells you [Bridge] But you can talk about down the road And dream on all you want Expect to be somewhere someday But I pray you won't Think of me as a bad guy If we wind up upside down I'm here to tell you someone loves you Yeah, even if it sounds [Chorus] Like I don't give a damn 'bout your perfect plan Your milestone rendezvous I'll drag my feet when life gets tough and when it's good I'll fly right through Yeah, I'll make you cry, make you laugh The more I leave, I'll leave you wantin' me back And I'll never listen like you want me to, but I'll tell the truth You don't tell time, time tells you You don't tell time, time tells you
