Time Flies Lyrics

My mind is getting older

And I've been tryna regain composure

I've been trotting back and forth like a soldier

But time is running slower when you are sober

I've been running

I've been running back and forth i need to win the race with time

Before the age of 18 I need to be the guy

Before the age of 20 I need to have a car

Before the age of 21 I need to buy a house

But how If I don't even have a crazy job? Because

Before the age of 19 I need to have been signed

I need to do this

I need to do that

To no surprise

The expectations that I set for myself are high

And sometimes I just look up to feel alive

Like I'm not a robot hiding in disguise

And sometimes I need to take my eyes off of the prize and cherish the moment

My mind is getting older

And I've been tryna regain composure

I've been trotting back and forth like a soldier

But time is running slower when you are sober

Yeah

I've been avoiding drinking drugs and parties for a while

Mesmerised by the faces of people who only smile

In a state of control that you get from a high

I feel like something is wrong with me when I take them now

Like I'm on a steep climb but looking at the sky

Like I'm robbing myself of this old precious time

But all the semantics and corny lines aside

I've been blessed to be surrounded with people I love in my life

17 years in the making and that figure will be bigger

And unless it gets cut short then many more things in the mirror

And I can see that in my side mirror know it'll come in time

Because the wings are taking off, and with them so am I

So smile for the camera I'm bout to take a pic

By 2025 i will be as big as JID

Big as J Cole coming out Muhammad Crib

I'll be back in '24 we gonna show em what it is

My mind is getting older

And I've been tryna regain composure

I've been trotting back and forth like a soldier

But time is running slower when you are sober

My mind is getting older

And I've been tryna regain composure

I've been trotting back and forth like a soldier

But time is running slower when you are sober
