[Verse 1]
If life is a season
I was drunk on Christmas evening
With nothing I needed
And all the best was left behind
[Verse 2]
I'm back where I started
With sparks of what I used to know
A flame before I lost it
The simple child state of mind
[Pre-Chorus]
It's coming like the sunshine
Rising in the morning
Igniting what the course is
I'm waking up, it's
[Chorus]
Time
Fighting the constant
Forgetting to give it up
Time
Forgot what I wanted
Now I'm waking up, it's time
[Verse 3]
Divided and conquered
I'm fleeing to the wonder
I lost when I was younger
The simple child state of mind
[Pre-Chorus]
It's coming like the sunshine
Rising in the morning
I hope to never forget
To be a child wasting time
[Chorus]
Time
Fighting the constant
Forgetting to give it up
Time
Forgot what I wanted
Now I'm waking up, it's time
[Bridge]
(Time to)
Delete all the patterns (Time to)
Forget all I knew (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time (Time to)
Go out when the rain falls (Time to)
Make a sudden move (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time
(Return to the things I once knew)
[Verse 4]
Emerging from the cloud of youth
Returning to the things I knew
I think I had it all along
A child's song is nestled in the wing of truth
[Pre-Chorus]
It's coming like the sunshine
Rising in the morning
Igniting what the course is
I'm waking up, it's time
[Chorus]
Fighting the constant
Return to the water
Forgot what I wanted
Forgetting to give it up
Fighting the constant
Return to the water
Forgot what I wanted
[Outro]
(Time to)
Delete all the patterns (Time to)
Forget all I knew (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time (Time to)
Go out when the rain falls (Time to)
Make a sudden move (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time (Time to)
Notice the horizon (Time to)
The fire in pursuit (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time (Time to)
Muscle turns to memory (Time to)
Returning back to you (Time to)
I remember what to do
I'm waking up, it's time

the lyrical message of ‘TIME 2’ ended up shocking us in a very prophetic way… the song speaks about waking up in the chaos of life & remembering a child-like state of mind. it calls to reset, & return to the beginning. the moment we finished writing the song, the world was su...
one of the most daunting parts of the whole TIME 2 video shoot was the slow motion feather scene. this scene perhaps doesn’t seem like that challenging of a situation, especially in comparison to the various moving choreography shots. but boy oh boy did the feather & crazy lighting combo get us...
