cdukes – time lyrics

(verse 1)
i’ve got 86,400 seconds per day
i don’t wanna be the one who’s gonna waste them away
caught up in this race
tryna find my place
as you just keep on going
it feels like i am bound and what’s ahead no trace
i don’t know when or how, for now i’ll just wait
future has no face
but i know it’s safe
as you just keep on going

(chorus)
there’s just so much time i could lose
you move fast when i don’t want to
i wish i could go back but you flew
we never have enough of you
remember when i didn’t worry what to do
now all i do is dwell on every move
i’m so nervous and the weight just consumes
and as i look ahead, there’s no view

(verse 2)
don’t go too fast, don’t go too fast
want this to last, want this to last
i’ve been growing up at lightening speed
and it has been so frightening
and i keep looking to my past
the more i contrast, the more i adapt
i have moved a lot, so i will recast
looking at the possibilities of could have been and should have been
but the mold is cast, so please don’t distract

they’ve invented these devices
aren’t they the nicest? it’ll save our time then
they’re supposed to be connecting us but they’re only deflecting us, defecting us
and to be honest they are wrecking us
they take us right out of the moment directing us
seven hours a day, no wonder life’s oppressing us
distressing us, so put it down i’m begging us
some time being present would be something that’s refreshing us

that’s because the most valuable things aren’t things
i shouldn’t use time to be scrolling on posts
need to spend my time with those i hold close to me
it’s easy to say but a harder approach
i’m running on the fly
and the stress will arise
i know i’ve got to try
need to pay it some mind
so why’d i spend time
scrolling on my device
looking at others lives
when i could live in mine

(verse 3)
yeah, caught up in anything but the present
i do it all the time, should have learned my lesson
keep pressing, making the most of every second
but uncertainties of the future are so depressing
and sometimes, i don’t have hope in what’s ahead
in the rough times, these struggles play with my head
but i remember there’s a plan set for me instead
even though i can’t see it, my futures already threaded

yeah, it’s about contentment
we spend our whole lives focused on the vision
tryna get somewhere give it all our attention
while everything in front of us we keep missing
i pray that i won’t fall into this lacking
getting “somewhere” doesn’t really make us happy
it only leaves us empty and we just keep grabbing
gotta enjoy the journey and focus on my passions

i’m here in the now
about to leave high school and i should be proud
but the stress of decisions ahead is weighing me down
and i’m watching how fast you’re moving and i’m like, how?
in the blink of an eye it’ll be time to move out
i’m wish i had hindsight, and i have so many doubts
but i can’t rewind, i’ll continue on this route
i don’t know what’s ahead but i know who brings it about

because of time
i know a lot
but it’s helped me realize
i don’t know a lot
over all the years
and little knowledge i’ve got
i’ve learned it’s precious
and just can’t be bought
i know time will eventually k!ll me
but it’s here so i don’t have to live forever this way
so until then i’ll live life willing
can’t control it but i know that what’s ahead is safe

on this long road i grew
a lot of times i’ve come unscrewed
but now i know who i’ll turn to
even though there’s no preview
cuz i know who
is in control of you
in the end you’re through
time, your time is due
even now he’s true
he’ll be right on cue
he’s got the whole view
as my life ensues

(end)
but you will be right there to help me through
you’ll help me through
