A million and one things to do. I only
Got so much time. Why should I give some to you?
[Verse 1: Comel 15]
It only takes a second for a cause-effect reaction
Surprises, thoughts, hurricanes, and lighting flashes
So many things to do in a world where time keeps moving
It's hidden in the corners and unorganized lose it
Must keep it moving ‘cause the time don't stop
And if I pull my plug, then that's only one clock
A million things but no job. Not lazy plus I'm no slob
I wish time I could rob and just keep it in a jar
If I had a billion, that's a lot more than a million
The time I would distribute, take a break and feed the children
Build a bio dome and reconstruct my state of living
Then give my girl some QT for emotions and her feelings
Do things with no priorities, let telemarketers bother me
Practice what's hard to me and master myself colossally
Hand out some parts of me, which is better than a moment
Then give some of my time to try to find where time is roaming
Found out it's stuck in Romans, but made it to Revelation
Was on the corner with some cats saying the end is waiting
I set my watch to meet up but forgot the zone changes
But even if I did, then forgot about daylight savings
Hard to get a grip when that minute’s impatient
I sit but never settled, ‘cause I’m constantly changing

[Verse 2: Jaysonic]
I’ll wake
Up to my alarm clock—8AM. Another
Day ahead of me—that means straight mayhem. The first
Thing: I’ll bounce to beats to make my bloodstream pump. I’ll take
A dump, then a shower to clean off my rump. Break-
-fast? No time to eat. Yo, I stepped to the streets
Plus, these days, it’s hard to stomach [?]. At this
Rate, about ten minutes late for work, and you
Know how that goes: my boss is going berserk. Cash
Pyramid delivery. He bought it to stay giving me
Black coffee with free sugars that’s got me living jittery
[?] with three cases of champagne
Wool sweaters, suede Nikes in this pouring rain
Moms steps to me, requesting. Eighty-five cents left
Wouldn’t offer a dime but tells me to represent. Yo, I’m
Just the many Christian missionaries asking for a pretty
Penny, plus the Salvation Army lady outside of Denny’s
Get back to work. My boss yells, “Grab the rolls
And get to the stock room. I mean now—now, stool”
Get off of work and stop at the ATM
Flashing “Out of Order,” I can’t even get ten
Twenty minutes later, stuck on the elevator
Running all day on a half a baked potato
Unlock the front door and I’m finally home
But before I could breathe, there goes the damn telephone
