letra de elapse - behan the scene

[intro]
time goes by and we’re just wastin’ every moment of it
i been spendin’ mine complainin’, then it occurred to me:
this won’t last forever, will it? i got to stop rushin’
it will all elapse, draining out my time
it will all elapse while i fall behind
easy does it now
slowly

[verse 1]
i had my sunshine engulfed in debris
as the clouds hovered, thunder struck, in agony
that sent chills down my spine like it’s autumn, but leaves a combined solstice when that cold meets the heat
unnatural to believe
why must it rain on me?
brought me down to my knees as i begged for mercy
not a plea could save me, i was pulled to the deep
what a picture-perfect angle at the sliest degree
[refrain]
see, i can run, but i can’t hide
so if it’s my time, then it’s my time

[verse 1—continued]
they tried to write me off, but can’t take me off the timeline
knew from the jump; that’s gon’ be a bad sign
dumped in a vat, got me lookin’ like the bad guy
put me in my place where my place is up for grabs
got a lil’ taste of the date through a chastise
discombobulate for my sake i left behind
hit the snooze, slept wise, think i’m
woke from a bad dream, nah, this is still life
feels ain’t real, i am worried ’bout nothin’
highlight reels pass me; i missed hundreds
the sand in the glass drains quick when you’re idle
can’t slip from the grasp, even if you tried to

[chorus]
time goes by and we’re just wastin’
every moment of it
i been spendin’ mine complainin’
then it occurred to me:
it don’t last forever, does it?
i got to stop rushing
it will all elapse
[verse 2]
sittin’ front row, bein’ patient ’til the ceremony
taken time, worth the while, may once find our turn approachin’
pass the torch, seize, bow and proceed
look back when we traveled closely
in the nosebleeds
capturin’ it all on loose-leaf paper
i just signed a waiver, may the odds be in my favor
’cause all these people graduatin’ that meant most to me
it’s getting loud, i hear the chants throughout the crowd
have yet to think about the future everyone has figured out, i figured out

[refrain]
see, i can run, but i can’t hide
so if it’s my time, then it’s my time

[verse 2—continued]
time doesn’t fly, it’s just skiddin’ on the runway
mine isn’t shy from unleashin’ upon gunplay
i just want to run away, not today
catch me if you can, but the coming is a mile away
they walkin’ by, looks on their faces, all mixed feelings
goin’ where the current takes them like a river lea
falling caps, bunch of confetti, ready to excel
i’ve gone restless, kept a lookout ‘case i’m next up, time will tell
[chorus]
time goes by and we’re just wastin’
every moment of it
i been spendin’ mine complainin’
then it occurred to me:
it don’t last forever, does it?
i got to stop rushing
it will all elapse

[verse 3]
i’ve been driving for miles, but not driven, a liability
i’m the roadk!ll, a deadbeat, they think i’ll end up on the streets
crows circlin’ around me, in a flock, to seal the deal
ring the bell, take the wheel, follow the misleading trail
switch, rotation, turning gears
those who haven’t took part in my life will not ring a bell
it’s a bell, friends are movin’ might as well
i’ll be at a gateway, below zero degrees, with a bouquet on my chest and the soil covering
speak now or forever hold your peace

[refrain]
see, i can run, but i can’t hide
so if it’s my time, then it’s my time

[verse 3—continued]
if i have a wedding, who’s the one for me: the girl of my dreams or a gold digger?
see, i’ve been goldbricking week, after month, after year and the brief tiny moments remind me why i’m here
dwell on the past it presents you your future
indulge in a blueprint, narrow it down sooner
start rue in the roots, and you ruin your rooters
there’s two paths ahead, which one will i pick?
don’t need my palm read, i don’t go by a script
pegasus to a god—that’s my form of a whip
we go out the same way, the same place, as stagnant, yeah

[outro]
in a matter of a lifetime, i’ma learn a couple things
i spend mine like it’s my last, if i had a couple days
that’s the beauty of our nature, we evolve, but we decay
all we’ve loved, lost or love least, we will soon appreciate
what goes on behind the curtains, the world may never know
but i’ll cherish every ounce of energy transferred alone
