Time keeps slipping, keeps slipping Time, time keeps slipping Time, time keeps slipping Time, time keeps slipping
Yo, the only thing Major don't waste is time in bed My time is rare, take time, time to prepare No time for fear, how many times I said it this year? At what time ya going to realize that time is near?
Call a time out, Scritti Politti, Major climb down The cracks of the streets waste no time on beats Mos' Def, most definitely the rap chief The new release, time to make cream, time to take a piece
And at the same time, time to rebuild, time is rilla I swear I bring the heat, the tracks to Val Kilmer You know that time waits for no man, in time you'll see That you're wasting all you time while you're watching TV
And yo' Scritti, I'm on it like walls to graffiti From night sticks, to plungers, to NYPD From Lucille BB King, you've seen me rhyme You stay away from drama if it's wasting your time
The time tables keep turning from Tinseltown You've got the both ends burning up to the Boogiedown (Time, time keeps slipping) They play for time and work for spaces
The time tables keep turning and clocks are wound You've got the both ends burning up and worked around (Time, time keeps slipping) And in their prime they change their faces
Yeah, from Boogiedown to the Tinseltown I had em' all gettin' down My baggage claim's got exotic names, I get around How I'm livin' now, well that's a whole lot different now From where I'm sitting now, got a whole clearer vision now
I played the tables hard, wild cards I was flipping now My partners hittin' pounds, somewhere up in prison now I'm flippin' high, things switch and change so suddenly The way you act today is tomorrow's where you wanna be
You company shifts when you start livin' comfortably Spotlights switch and then you dip right from under me Don't front for me, I want to be perfectly clear Time is here, I'm keepin' yesterday in the rear
A current affair, Mos' Def and Lee Majors appear Bout to write this little ditty with the Scritti, you hear And it's about that time, so if you could be then would you Sit back and look at who time's bein' good to
The time tables keep turning from Tinseltown You've got the both ends burning up to the Boogiedown (Time, time keeps slipping) They play for time and work for spaces
The time tables keep turning and clocks are wound You've got the both ends burning up and worked around (Time, time keeps slipping) And in their prime they change their faces
At one time I thought I had it all, mass of broads Flash awards, cash cards, time's a double-edged sword One day you hear applause, next day when you leave You catch a L in the C like Christopher Reeves
Do you all believe that these cats threw dirt on my name? Give 'em time, they couldn't win if I gave 'em point game At times I used to swerve, now I'm learning my lane Trapped in time, what a shame with nobody to blame
I waits for no one and fat and slow ones, the rich no funs The Samurai's and Shoguns, the first stringer no runs Ayyo gun, you'd better hope to it or you blow, son This time keeps slipping, make no difference if you don't come
It's bein' well recorded how we advise we Get on our game and spend these moments wisely It's time to make chase, give pace, no time to waste First you on, then you gone so long, you been replaced
The time tables keep turning from Cali High You've got the both ends burning up to the do or die (Time, time keeps slipping) They set their hearts and fix their courses
The time tables keep turning and dreams of dreams You've got the both ends burning up of how it seems (Time, time keeps slipping) T
