[Intro:]
It's hard to find guidance when you just a youngin' in this shit man
Just tryna find a way just like everybody else
Yea, its D. Knight
Aye, aye, aye, aye
[Hook: D. Knight]
It's been a journey yes it has it's been a ride
Been putting hours in to see the minute I arrive
'Cause I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Feel like I been losing people left and right
And I done had one too many homies that done died
But I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
[Verse 1: D. Knight]
All I wanna do is leave my mark and be somebody y'all recognize
Told my bro when he leave them bars that I'll make sure we set for life
Everybody wanna see them stars but everybody won't sacrifice
Everybody'd rather eat than starve but we don't got the same appetite
Often urgent still I never move fast in life
I reflect just to pass the time, thoughts keep me up half the night
Praying I can see through the grey 'cause everything ain't black and white
My big homie just passed away, swear the city ain't acting right
Tried to show my loved ones there's a better way besides the streets
Seems like in my city damn near everyday is RIP
Wanna get through to some people it's like they too blind to see
I still graduated even though I'm far from Ivy league
I ain't always have a team I figured things out on my own
Niggas wasn't 'bout the dream they left me hanging all alone
Had to come up with a scheme like how the hell I'm 'posed to blow?
Things aren't always meant to be I learned that somewhere down the road
[Hook: D. Knight]
It's been a journey yes it has it's been a ride
Been putting hours in to see the minute I arrive
'Cause I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Feel like I been losing people left and right
And I done had one too many homies that done died
But I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
[Verse 2: Dub tha Poet]
Uh, I'm panicking heavy, hoping that God understands that I'm ready
Ask what's been taking so long I been making these songs but the plan isn't steady
Or maybe I was wrong with my execution, thought my voice was holy 'cause he blessed the music
Most these niggas phony showing less improvement, prove my doubters wrong, that's my retribution
All my aspirations have just always been to be an inspiration show the kids amazement
Blow a kiss to Dayton while I'm in my mission follow intuition put in situations
Beneficial placements, that's a blessing, no fearing failure that's a natural lesson
Never lack progression, true to hip-hop to get in rappers heaven with the classic legends
My goals are different but I won't reveal, plot by my lonely dreams won't get killed
Will I live to see 'em? I don't know for real but I'm a go for broke 'cause I been broke for real
And I been losing jobs like I been losing patience, I don't hate the struggle that's an overstatement
I embrace the struggle look it in its face and show it who its facing I don't do no breaking
And I got a feeling something great is coming to me, from a far opportunity is running to me
I see it clear is day but it's still out my reach but I won't ever rest like the mountains peak
A "fuck you" to those who have it out for me, when my job is done just pass the crown to me
Told y'all I'm the one but y'all sound asleep but when it's said and done they'll all shout for me, Dub
[Hook: D. Knight]
It's been a journey yes it has it's been a ride
Been putting hours in to see the minute I arrive
'Cause I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Feel like I been losing people left and right
And I done had one too many homies that done died
But I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
[Verse 3: Eman Jones]
I've been in and outta
I've been out here on the road, I been in and out of zones
I've been feeling all alone 'cause the world is oh so cold
I've been tryna get it goin' I just give 'em what they want please just don't take my soul
Uh, hey what I'm gon' say, I think I done lost it I think my mind's went astray
Got it on lock Guantanamo Bay, sharp shooter bullets won't ricochet
I'm a hot boy like Weezy yea, you a hot boy like Nick Lachey
Mmm, please, get out my way
I don't know what this about, I've been in and out the state you lose your faith but never doubt
I got friends that flaked off on me couldn't handle all the clout
I been searching for real music man I swear it's been a drought
They been asking me for features but won't pay me my amount
In my city they don't love me took my talents to the south
DJ Toomp said I'm the one he always bragging 'bout
In my city call me legend keep my name up out your mouth, gah damn
[Hook: D. Knight]
It's been a journey yes it has it's been a ride
Been putting hours in to see the minute I arrive
'Cause I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Feel like I been losing people left and right
And I done had one too many homies that done died
But I'm too young to feel like I been running out of time
Yeah I'm too young to feel like I been running outta-
