D.R.K. - Take Your Time Lyrics

No more lies and excuses
Stop giving my time to people who use it
And make it seem like they just want the best for me
Cause they don't ever check for me
Unless they hitting my phone to tell me what favor they need
Man f*ck a respectfully
Been telling y'all for years nobody could step to me
No one could outwork me
Kicking and pushing to get the credit I'm deserving
If this was a sport I bet they retire my jersey
Cause I've been going so hard I'm feeling legendary
I am very
Grateful for this position I'm in
I got big dreams
Imagine if I had this confidence when I was sixteen damn
I probably would've peaked in high school
They say everything happens for a reason but its hard to see it through to the end
I scroll my phone and realize my life is lacking some friends
Would it be different If I rewound and made some amends
This is a vicious cycle man and I don't really wanna take it there (but should I take it there?)
Don't wanna be stuck in that should've, could've, would've
Would my life be different if I focused on amusement?
Damn I guess we'll never really know
But that's okay
I'm only 25 its something different everyday
I gotta learn to live for myself instead of seeking approval
Gotta do what makes me happy in the end its only you so take your time
Take your time
Take your time
Take your time
They ask me "What is the point of rushing?"
Then I bounce back with "Tomorrow is never promised"
I feel like a loser if I ain't moving with a sense of urgency
Cause these memories and reminiscing really had a hold of me
While time was passing me by I tried to figure out how
How to get it on my own cause nobody was there to help
Do you get me?
Ain't no more clowning around
Forget thinking bout the future tryna make moves now
Cause you can try to knock me down
But you can't keep me there forever
I promise you that I just get better will all endeavors I collide with
Too many years I sat back and stayed silent
These people had a chance and then they blew it
I'm ahead of my time
So what they doing I did it
I ain't impressed by all these people telling lies and pulling gimmicks
On the surface they may look so cool
Deep down they insecure so they gotta put facades on for you
Now here's the difference
I'm unapologetically me
So when I make it know I did it being who I'm meant to be
There's no comparison
Mention my name with all them others that's embarrassing
If you ain't bout that action
Shut your mouth
Cause I ain't hearing it
We only ask for opinions
From the people steady striving in this world to make a difference
Its a lifestyle
You wouldn't get it if you're lazy
Its crazy
But don't be stupid
Cause this life could make you lose it
Take your time
Take your time
Take your time
Take your time
Take your time
