Dizzipate - What Time Is It? Lyrics

Ah I'm late again
I'd really love to stay inside and chill but life is pay to win
Maintaining this mundane ordain, an urban citizen
Coming up with stories just to sit home with some Jameson
Not even that I'm lazy I just lose track of time
Since I use my downtime, for past times in my mind
I can never really tell between the night and the day
Sleeping schedules mixed like Benadryl that's laced with cocaine
I'll rest for two, three maybe four hours a day
And there's sometimes I lose myself but for the most part I'm okay
So yet still to my dismay I want more hours in the day
Because our time is just a concept yet were victims of age
But I guess I like it really its these moments that I live for
The right side of my brain wakes up as soon as I lock my door
The left side will remind that work is coming I should sleep more
We compromised I show up late now claiming that I felt sore
Well if I had a billion dollars I'd dig myself out of the place I'm in
If I had some more power I'd rule the world down with an iron fist
If I had a true lover I'd probably find some way to ruin it
But If I had three wishes I'd use em all to ask what time it is
If I had a fast car I'd drive away until the highways end
If I had my own bar I'd be there each and every single day
If I believed in a God I'd ask it how long will my time sustain
Then Hopefully I'd never spend another second late again
Well each offensive sentence will be censored with a mic drop
I took some time to measure days that follow the plot
Just so I can calculate exactly how much times lost
Tick-tock tick-tock, when will everything stop
Now I'm gonna pause it all but only just to have a cigarette
And use this time alone to think about how it all came to this
No matter what you know there's always somebody who knew it first
When all we are is children in a chokehold by the universe
Amazing how rap music took a turn for the worst huh
Rain drop drop top oh shut up
But I guess it just changes in time and that's inevitable
Still I miss the nineties though, when rap was still poetical
Get rid of all the signs
Maybe we should close up shop
Respect to Atmosphere, Big Nas, and Aesop
Brother Ali, Eyedea, Murs, and Kristoff
And all the local artists using gear from pawnshops
Well if I had a billion dollars I'd dig myself out of the place I'm in
If I had some more power I'd rule the world down with an iron fist
If I had a true lover I'd probably find some way to ruin it
But If I had three wishes I'd use em all to ask what time it is
If I had a fast car I'd drive away until the highways end
If I had my own bar I'd be there each and every single day
If I believed in a god I'd ask it how long will my time sustain
Then Hopefully I'd never spend another second late again
Maybe it'd be easier living life in reverse
So as our time passed life wouldn't just keep getting worse
And it's not that I don't try I'm really just not aware
How the seconds overpower you and turn into years
So We'd start our lives off old wise and frail
And use the knowledge that we have to lift our heads out the veil
And then our wisdom can be harnessed dissipating all the insolence
Till we slowly gravitate ourselves back home into our innocence
Begin our jobs at eighty till we find our careers
Ages thirty-five and down would be retirement years
With naivety and strength the world is ours to traverse
Until the day we melt away and start to fold into the universe
Hold onto that thought I'm gonna be late for work
It's like I never learn all I do is ponder and search
But what's it mean if all the questions are just answered with questions
I guess in time I'll learn if I use seconds as lessons
Well if I had a billion dollars I'd dig myself out of the place I'm in
If I had some more power I'd rule the world down with an iron fist
If I had a true lover I'd probably find some way to ruin it
But If I had three wishes I'd use em all to ask what time it is
If I had a fast car I'd drive away until the highways end
If I had my own bar I'd be there each and every single day
If I believed in a god I'd ask it how long will my time sustain
Then Hopefully I'd never spend another second late again
Well now that we talk about time what is it
Well now that we talk about time what is it
Well now that we talk about time what is it
Well now that we talk about time what is it
Well now that we talk about time what is it
Well now that we talk about time what is it
