BORROWED TIME

(album: REAL BITCHES DON'T DIE! - 2023)

Know I told you before
And I wish I could tell you again
That I love you
And when I look up
I know you looking out
For me
You know I'll be right there
Oh, I'll be right there

Will I ever find the words to say, that convey
The feeling knowing that I can't see your face
As the pendulum sways and the sun sets on the day
We know what awaits, fate
Tryna catch a break, I got a lot to mourn in the queue
Got a lot of grieving to do
Got a lot of seeing to prove
Got a lot of believing to move
And even if this don't cut through
At least, I tried

Took a loan out from the most high
But you can't buy back what's passed by
Make the moment hours, a flash of light
Cause all we got for now is borrowed time

Took a loan out from the most high
But you can't buy back what's passed by
Make the moment hours, a flash of light
Cause all we got for now is borrowed time

Folks will treat you like spare change
If you have no change to spare, I'm knowing life ain't fair
And regardless of the contents of my pocket
You was my dawg, you was always there
This song is dedicated to the ones I hear but can't call
Who finally got their wings and stand a million feet tall
Hanging on the stoop watching summer turn to fall
Or popping shit at Penick, screaming "This The Way We Ball"

Real ones watching me daily from heaven's eye
Wash my sins in hyssop and let my heart be the guide
I just hope that y'all proud of me looking down from the sky
And know I tried

Took a loan out from the most high
But you can't buy back what's passed by
Make the moment hours, a flash of light
Cause all we got for now is borrowed time

Took a loan out from the most high
But you can't buy back what's passed by
Make the moment hours, a flash of light
Cause all we got for now is borrowed time
