[Part I]


[Chorus]

I woke up and my eyes were sore (Yeah)

I gave you every last tear that I had, I don't think I can cry no more (No)

All of this red on my eyes looking like I never gotten high before (Huh?)

This is not regular love, this shit is a mile more (For real)

I think this is God's way of reminding me I need to smile more (Yeah)


[Verse 1]

I played you my song, and we sobbed (Huh?), this music beyond just a job (Yeah)

This music beyond gettin' up on my YouTube and dissin' some pom for applause (For real)

I got a responsibility that's bigger than bullshittin' all for the mob (True)

I'm tryna ball while I'm here so they don't have to bawl when I'm gone

Yeah, life changed in a year, changed in a week, changed in a second (Second)

Sang when they didn't hear, they didn't speak, they didn't question (They did not!)

Made my music in fear, made it and re-framed my perspective

I hope that it's clear, now that you're here, came to my rescue


[Refrain]

Losing time

Let me let you know before I lose my mind, yeah

These days, something must be on my side

If I lose, at least I'll tell 'em that I tried, yeah (Tried)

That I tried (Yeah, okay)


[Verse 2]

They say, "Great things take time"

I think time takes great things away, though

Lost all of my idols that had fallen like an angel

Who knows if they in the clouds with a halo?

Who knows? (Who knows?)

I look up to names for help (Yeah)

But how can our idols save us (No)

If they can't even save themselves? (Facts)

I gotta behave myself (Yeah)

Gotta remember my start, no, I will not betray myself

I been afraid to tell

So alone, so, I just braced myself

I've wanted love since the age of twelve

Even before I could lace myself

That's why when I know I lose all that I love

That it's easy to hate myself

It's my birthday! But I won't celebrate myself (Uh-huh)

'Cause time is gonna take myself (Yeah)

I'm on my Pro Clubs shit; I create myself

But I'm never gonna rate myself

Picture-perfect, is it workin'?

Vision blurrin', missin' verses, life really is a burden

Seein' my face on every sign; I'm a missin' person

Whatever he gets, the kid deserves it

Yeah


[Chorus]

I woke up, and my eyes were sore

I gave you every last tear that I had, I don't think I can cry no more (No)

All of this red on my eyes looking like I never gotten high before (For real)

This is not regular love, this shit is a mile more (For real)

I think this is God's way of reminding me I need to smile more (Yeah)


[Refrain]

Losing time

Let me let you know before I lose my mind, yeah

These days, something must be on my side

If I lose, at least I'll tell 'em that I tried, yeah (Tried)

That I tried


[Part II]


[Interlude]

Hahaha, that's so good, I can't—


[Outro]

You're nothing but a grain of sand in my hourglass

But I can spot you from a mile away, yeah

I'm searchin' for you
