Tick Tick Tick

I recall way, way, way back when
In a war, it was me against them
Didn't have no choice, didn't have no chance, all I had was a pad and a pen
I recall when I took that risk
Ain't none nigga do it like this
When you get that shot, you better shoot that shit little nigga and you better not miss
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left

Hope you niggas find your passion quickly
I'ma be the one to set the date they kill me
Took a little time but they finally feel me
Tapping into the craft, the rhymes got filthy
I have been motivated by more progression
They said I'm addicted, I feel the obsession
The best of the best when it comes to the ones that [?] they observing the lesson
The fuck is this
I will never fall off, I am in a whole 'nother league
What the fuck I miss
I am not amused by the games they play
These niggas on some other shit
I'ma just plot til the clock stops ticking
I'ma watch 'cause I know the plot thickens
If you just paid attention, you could see it nigga

I recall way, way, way back when
In a war, it was me against them
Didn't have no choice, didn't have no chance, all I had was a pad and a pen
I recall when I took that risk
Ain't none nigga do it like this
When you get that shot, you better shoot that shit little nigga and you better not miss
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left

Can't call no time out
Working with the opposition, let me find out
I'm aware it's a race for the top
If you're running for your spot then you can't get boxed out
I will not clock out, not today
I will go find my way
It really ain't much to say
I know it's all about your vision, the way that you operate to more than exist
I can insist, that you keep taking that risk
Small pond with the big fish
Anything better than being 12 feet in the earth, not dead in a ditch
It's safe to say this shit is what you make it
You could be fooled and you could be vacant
You only gonna get round go round in this life
Ain't no replacing

I recall way, way, way back when
In a war, it was me against them
Didn't have no choice, didn't have no chance, all I had was a pad and a pen
I recall when I took that risk
Ain't none nigga do it like this
When you get that shot, you better shoot that shit little nigga and you better not miss
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left
You don't wanna have to live with the regrets
Said you gotta push forward don't regress
That clock go tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick til it ain't no time left
