Just For A Second

[Intro: Joelistics & Seed MC]
Hang on, wait a moment, I insist
An explanation on the nature of the twist
Time (What's this?)
Rewind, pause, hold it for a second (How long?)

[Verse 1: Joelistics, Seed MC]
We're long like [?] than long (Really?)
[?] be on from a second to an eon
To take time off to chill, this full on phenomenon
Which runs a long marathon and sucks the [?]
All the clocks are gone, to tell us when what's on
A program crammed in a 9-to-5-athon
Grab your swatch, wrist watch and switch it off or not
'Cause it goes on and on, [?]
But we still got time to take tea and scones
And theorise time in the maths and sums
And feel the heartbeat beat many rhythms
And we play along with the breath in our lungs
You know you can't go wrong
Observe the mechanism and continuum
Now listen up to close to the intercom
([?] This is TZU, sing along)

[Pre-Chorus: Joelistics & Seed MC]
Well, you can watch your watch or your grandfather clock
You can try to unlock, it's a tick tick tock
But you can't speed it up and you can't make it stop
It is what it is and it ain't what it's not
Well, you can try and disassemble it, or make a measurement
Treasure it, and you can reminisce it with the sentiment
Old age, recollect, calendars pedal it
Fossils impression it, but evidently, there is no end to it
We [?] to it, in honour of the birthdays
Measure out our yesterdays and more ways than once is
Time begun, we've had time on the tongue
For a second, let the song be sung, now

[Chorus: Joelistics & Seed MC]
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second (How long?)
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second (Yes yes yes yes)

[Verse 2: Joelistics, Seed MC]
When I'm an old man and I can barely stand up
And I'm sitting on the rocking chair on the verandah
Thinkin' 'bout life and the grandest scheme
Will I know where I am and like, where I've been?
Will I throw away my diary and my time table?
Scrap all my schedules, 'cause I'm quite able
To watch time pass through the hourglass
Sit and bask in the sun, 'til I arrive back in the cradle

[Break: Joelistics, Sample (Scratches by Paso Bionic)]
Yeah, uh
Ha, aha ha, yeah
Ha, aha ha, yeah
From the bottom to the top
From the bottom to the top
From the bottom to the top
From the bottom to the top
From the bottom to the top

[Pre-Chorus: Joelistics & Seed MC]
Well, you can watch your watch or your grandfather clock
You can try to unlock, it's a tick tick tock
But you can't speed it up and you can't make it stop
It is what it is and it ain't what it's not
Well, you can try and disassemble it, or make a measurement
Treasure it, and you, the reminiscent with the sentiment
In old age, recollect, calendars pedal it
Fossils impression it, but evidently, there is no end to it

[Chorus: Joelistics & Seed MC]
For a second, for a second
For a second, yes, for a second, now
Just for a second, for a second, now
Just for a second, yeah, for a second, now
Just for a second, alright, for a second, now
Just for a second, for a second, now
Just for a second, for a second
Just for a second, for a second
Just for a second, for a second
Just for a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second
For a second, just for a second

[Bridge: Joelistics & Seed MC]
Time crack a whip
The clock hand tick
Exact
Intimate
Freeze frame a bullet
Stop a raindrop drip
Light travels, infinite
Interweaving intricate motion is imminent
Take time to measure it
Now! Elaborate
Time slow
Accelerate
Philosophers
Interpretate
What never seems to worry Jake
Wouldn't cause a [?] to permutate through to this
(Now!)

[Outro: Joelistics & Seed MC]
'Cause everytime I race, I lose a minute
And everytime I slow ride down, I see whats in it
'Cause everytime I race, I lose a minute
And everytime I slow ride down, I see whats in it
'Cause everytime I race, I lose a minute
And everytime I slow ride down, I see whats in it
'Cause everytime I race, I lose a minute
And everytime I slow ride down, I see whats in it
