Time Takes Me Lyrics by Sniper J

2022

(Chorus, Jay 1:40 & Sniper J)
Said I don't wanna slow down
Never know where to go
And I don't wanna know now
What I'm gonna know
They tell me to chase the blind
Got no time for safety
Said I'm just gonna take the time 'fore the time takes me
(Verse 1, Sniper J)
Oh, what a *breath* of fresh air
Flesh of legend that feared 
Being mortal but now I’m livin' forever in ears 
Same passion but intentions shifted from begging for cheers
To wanting to be felt and having a connection to peers
Pressurе lifted 'cause I know wherе I’m headed
Drive is potent and my soul is invested 
In the present moment where I’m sculpting a message 
Adding value ‘stead of adding to the flame 
'Cause that’s exactly what Pac did to my adolescent brain
They want me to slow it down and conform for their own comfort
Go figure, that ego blockin' they growth, so no wonder
They don’t like the messenger, so they gon’ give  you the cold shoulder 
But know the chase for aesthetic’s in control of their whole structure 
No longer letting a mass number fill the voids at any cost
From money, to group a friends that blind what matters at large
Too many nights I felt i was going against my fate and I wasn’t enough
But I wasn’t a lost cause it was just 'cause I was lost
(Chorus, Jay 1:40 & Sniper J)
Said I don't wanna slow down
Never know where to go
And I don't wanna know now
What I'm gonna know
They tell me to chase the blind
Got no time for safety
Said I'm just gonna take the time 'fore the time takes me
(Verse 2, Jay 1:40)
Yeah, uh, no slowing it down, got somewhere to be, they never looked at it like I do
I'm holding it down, while stuck in the sea, they'd never present it like I do
I'm molding it now, my whole legacy
They'll never go get it like I do
I hope to corral the ones who could see the vision presented when I move
The vision inside of my mind, the mission I'm given's to not let it die
I'm wishing for wisdom embracing the lives, of those who before me had carried divine
Ideas that had generational change, the way that it was and now who I became
Is starting to look more like what I had aimed for when first I started this journey of fame
Connection, what does that word mean to you hearing it?
To some it's just taking two things and putting 'em together
To me it's taking different wave lengths and steering it
To find each other serendipitous made better
It takes time, turning things from thoughts into fruition
It saves lives, giving hope to anyone who's gifted
The fake lies, you've had sold to you 'cause you're too different
Can't break minds, with a purpose time for us to win it
(Chorus, Jay 1:40 & Sniper J)
Said I don't wanna slow down
Never know where to go
And I don't wanna know now
What I'm gonna know
They tell me to chase the blind
Got no time for safety
Said I'm just gonna take the time 'fore the time takes me
