[Hook]

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

This music's beyond just a job

This music's beyond getting up on my Youtube

And dissing some pawn for applause

I gotta responsibility that's bigger than bullshitting

All for the mob

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 reframed my perspective

I hope that it's clear

Now that you're here, came to my rescue



[Chorus]

Losing time, lemme 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

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 12

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 (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 missing person

Whatever he gets, the kid deserves it (Yeah)



[Hook]

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 (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



[Chorus]

Losing time, lemme 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

That I tried



[Outro]

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

But, I can spot you from a mile away, yeah

I'm searching for you
