[Chorus 1]

Hey...

It’s time you know...

Today...

It’s been emotional


[Verse 1]

We been down

On the loop

And we’ve all found

An absolute

To flip around

A whole youth

When everybody wanna dance to their own truth

(Why do you always have to get deep, man?

Like can you have one song where you’re not that serious?)

(I don’t know man. I try... but I can’t help it

Especially being in quarantine, I get real existential.)


[Chorus 2]

Hey...

Now that you know

Today...

We can grow


[Verse 2]

Aight

Many wanna go panic

Living through a pandemic

Many getting more frantic

Or becoming apathetic

They don’t care

And do you?

I mean what could a flu really do to you?

Not much. Ya I thought so

But what about all the poor weak and old folk

Changing up plans? Ya everybody gotta do it

Plans of romance? Ya bet somebody gotta move it

Gotta move the date

Ain’t that great?

Ya nothing stays the same

Oh ain’t that fate?

But everybody’s praying

For some kind of change

Just for the circumstance or

For more than these days?

I don't know

[Verse 3]

But I do know...

We all love company and each other

So after all of this crap is done

How bout we go and have some fun

And dance around and hug everyone

‘bracing another like it’s from our own grandmothers. (It’s gonna get hype)

People live, then die and when their time has come, we will not know why (one, two, three, four)

I’ve been tryna find some kinda inner peace

I’ve been tryna I’ve been tryna reconnect to never cease

My relationships that I’ve found to have meaning

Try to water all the plants to mature all the seedlings

Get a news flash, oh the virus getting worse

And another news flash, could this all just be a curse?

Cuz our jobs are going down while anxiety is up

And we’re all now finding out that some youth won’t make the cut

But all we got is God and each other

All this other shit we can go and recover

Go to wash my hands. Yet later rediscover

How good it was to get dirty... and uncover... cover... cover... cover…

[Chorus 3]

Hey... (Haha. Oh buddy… that was a close one)

It’s not a show (it's not a show)

So hey...

Let’s lose the role (let's lose the role)

Today...

We’ve all grown

So now...

Let’s treat each other like they’re our own
