Clock-watchers Lyrics
Intro //
Time (x2)
Chorus //
(scratching) time, it goes on and, and on and on and on, and ya' don't stop /
And the shit don't stop, it goes on and, and on and on and on
Verse One //
What was left for me to do after Black Jazz 2? /
Had to escape the studio and send myself back to school /
Now I'm a law student, I got the Mens Rea /
Combine the Actus Reus, put an end to your career /
Now I'm sitting in a class three times a week /
Trying to study, plus get this money cos' these times are bleak /
The world's flat broke, real-talk, no GAS like flat Coke /
People start to lack hope and all because somе fat bloke
Mayor or Politician leave you with no pot to piss in /
And voting ain't changing nothing, thеm sucka's don't even listen /
Wishing for Gods Miracles, I’m only a man /
Superhero in def lyricals and known in Japan /
Here to bring you something much slicker than the oil in Iran /
And prone to make a sudden move but I can show em' my hands /
I’m bout' to show em’ my plans if they can show me some grand’s /
Don’t get it twisted, I’m a misfit that can hold em’ to ransom /
And I’m soaring like an Eagle, observing all things illegal /
Condemning everything evil like people who killing people /
Is this the way of the world?
Is it from disobeying the girl that provided their birth and welcomed them to Earth? /
It can take days and it can take months /
You can be wrong a milli' times but only be right once /
And yeah that one time matters, just look at Barak /
So I don’t really have the time for sitting watching the clock… clock-watchers
Chorus // (x2)
(scratching) time, it goes on and, and on and on and on, and ya' don't stop /
And the shit don't stop, it goes on and, and on and on and on (clock-watchers)
Verse Two //
Yo’, what was left for me to say after they caused so much pain? /
And left the people feeling crazy like they're going insane? /
The only place to find some privacy's inside of your brain /
You just a number so wonder peeps don’t call you by name /
And make you feel like everything you want is all in your range /
Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t, may be time for some change /
It's like we living in the Matrix and we know something's strange /
And cannot wait for the days when we can show em’ their shame /
But for now, even though you don’t wanna, got to learn to hold your corner /
Even though you just wanna let off steam just like a sauna /
Keep the faith, pray, meditate, find your way /
Levitate beyond the brave and hesitating never pays /
So I’m quick fast, hit the ground running /
Choose my peeps real careful
I don’t hang around cunning individuals who using me to further their agenda /
Put my foot down and now they act like I am the offender /
I don’t know about that, I just know about rap
Family, love, life, law, little this ‘n’ that /
It’s a wrap for them parasites who keep on coming back (echo) /
Yo, it can take days and it can take months /
You can be wrong a million times but only be right once /
Yeah that one time matters to get to the top /
So I don’t really have the time for sitting watching the clock… clock-watchers
Chorus // (x2)
(scratching) time, it goes on and, and on and on and on, and ya' don't stop /
And the shit don't stop, it goes on and, and on and on and on (clock-watchers)
Outro //
Time (x5)
