Time Machine (GT Remix) ft. Khingz Lyrics

My past was stolen from me

Stolen from me

And no one knew

Did you know that's why your soul is hungry

Why you try to fill it up with cars, clothes, doe, and fucking

That shit don't ever work

It don't ever work

Some of my peoples came here to escape the hurt

And collide with those who came here in chains

To break the earth

And all of us have to recreate our sense of worth

While being told that we're senseless

But I can feel it, I can taste it, I can see it,

I can smell it, I can hear it

Whenever them speakers bleeding

When life gets me screaming

I hop in this time machine

And I bleed with the ghost

I'm needing your laughter lately

Whatever made you not suicide when they stole your baby

What saved you in the south, Yellow girl, facing the crazy

Whatever made you search for healing in another's touch

Whatever made you freestyle without giving a fuck

And I don't need no hoverboards

And I'll provide the fucking lightning

I know my life's more privileged

And I don't, I don't take it lightly

Someone will need our music

When life gets fucking frightening

So we provide something to ride with

While rhyming with a certain time machine

Made of music

You feel what you don't see

It rides through your vessels

Connecting you to a sea of ancestors

Who prayed you would be free

And everything you see

They were just imagining

A machine made of music

You feel what you don't see

It rides through your vessels

Connecting you to a sea of ancestors

Who prayed you would be free

And everything you see

They were just imagining

About music

The way I heal, the way I pray

My sanctuary when the world isn't safe

These are lives saved on songs laid

My soul's bare

In dusty recordings

My home's there

Between a whole planet and nowhere

To feel complete is a fleeting moment

That's so rare

Time traveling from a land with no air

To go wherever you need to

For everyone who dreamed you

In spite of those who denied, didn't listen, didn't see you

I will break the laws of physics if I need to to reach you

We've been folding space

Back and forth in a continuum

Of African music

Reinvented for the spirits of our people to connect

And the energy to rise up

Where I got my heart broke

Is how I learned about love

I choose to love again

Every time I pick a mic up

You call it hip-hop

But I know it's ancient

Cause of my time machine

Made of music

You feel what you don't see

It rides through your vessels

Connecting you to a sea of ancestors

Who prayed you would be free

And everything you see

They were just imagining

A machine made of music

You feel what you don't see

It rides through your vessels

Connecting you to a sea of ancestors

Who prayed you would be free

And everything you see

They were just imagining

A machine made of music

You feel what you don't see

It rides through your vessels

Connecting you to a sea of ancestors

Who prayed you would be free

And everything you see

They were just imagining

Everything that you see they were just imagining

Everything that you see they were just imagining

Everything that you see they were just imagining

It's that Colored Peoples Time Machine
