[Intro]
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Uh, uh, uh
Tik tok, 'bout time (Uh-oh)
Yeah, 'bout time I get mine, yeah (Yeah)
Tik tok, 'bout time (Yuh)
Yeah, it's 'bout time
[Chorus]
Man, I’m asking y'all, "What time is it?"
It's 'bout time, feelin' like the world is mine
Yeah, what time is it?
Well, it ain’t mine, if I ain’t gon' heed the signs
I got the promise in my hand, but it’s all on me, ayy
Pray this house of cards don’t fall on me, ayy
It's 'bout time, gotta use every breath
Long as my heart beat in my chest (Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 1]
Got some things on my mind, let me interrupt
I been feeling down, lookin' for a pick me up
The same cycles, like a brotha on the city bus
Hella nosy, tryna see what’s in my sippy cup
Now just wait, I got plenty on my plate
I can explain, I feel like I been doubted straight out the gate
Now I’m
Tryna create with all this trauma on me
Young and restless, so please, get all that drama from me, yeah
Now, I been praying for some changes in my own surroundings
What’s the point of climbin' mountains if your vision cloudy?
A dirty po' boy straight up outta Walton County
My time is precious, so to get it, you gotta pay the bounty
Recalibrate, I got too much that’s at stake
I got people in my corner and they want me to be great
My enemies be lurkin', but they cannot ride the wave
They still peepin' my campaign, tryna pull a Watergate
[Chorus]
Man, I’m asking y'all, "What time is it?"
It's 'bout time, feelin' like the world is mine
Yeah, what time is it?
Well, it ain’t mine, if I ain’t gon' heed the signs
I got the promise in my hand, but it’s all on me, ayy
Pray this house of cards don’t fall on me, ayy
It's 'bout time, gotta use every breath
Long as my heart beat in my chest (Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2]
How many mics do I rip on the daily?
How many times do I ask you to save me?
From the things inside my heart that I never share
Get a bottle 'cause if I’m honest, man, don’t nobody care
So get lit
I get twisted, then forget
All the trials and tribulations that the world never sees
I got my lady by side, mama prayin' for me
If my life is on a lease, I know He paid it for me (Yeah, yeah)
Man, I been waiting on some changes in my own surroundings
I gotta get my life together, I ain’t one for drowning
It's easy to compare, I gotta people my age
That's buying homes when I’m tryna see a livable wage
And they trippin' at my job, takin' too many days off
Soon as this music pop, man, a brotha gon' take off, but
My biggest fear is gettin' money and the power
Just to end up suicidal at somebody’s happy hour, asking
[Chorus]
Man, I’m asking y'all, "What time is it?"
It's 'bout time, feelin' like the world is mine
Yeah, what time is it?
Well, it ain’t mine, if I ain’t gon' heed the signs
I got the promise in my hand, but it’s all on me, ayy
Pray this house of cards don’t fall on me, ayy
It's 'bout time, gotta use every breath
Long as my heart beat in my chest (Yeah, yeah)
[Outro]
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Uh, uh, uh
Tik tok, 'bout time (Uh-oh)
Yeah, 'bout time I get mine, yeah (Yeah)
Tik tok, 'bout time (Yuh)
Yeah, it's 'bout time, uh
