What is an hour glass? time is like an overpass

Driving I'm grabbing moments that vanishes when I start to gas it

Then a casket starts to come up close and really quickly

Thinking bout the past and my people and will they really miss me..

Did I touch a life and love them while I'm here?

Did I stack up all my chips only to dip and disappear?

Was this really bout the fame and how we're chasing it

Facing it, only dip your toe but never bathe in it - hating it

I’ll never know who this music really touches

Hope it brushes on your soul hope you grab a hold

And make it lovely I've been in moments where my heart was in love

At least it felt like that at present but was never enough

And so I paint it in a frame just to claim it and keep around

Document my travels I'm reaching you through a sound

Hoping that you're vibing and living in all your moments

We could leave up out this earth in a second and we may never know it

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

How you choose to move is your legacy, entity

Loving those around you keep it heavenly, symmetry

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

Choose your own direction, not just to impress

You never know when we are leaving with a few minutes left

I never really needed much to feel alive in life

A cup of coffee and a sandwich got me feeling right

In the tightest window with a breeze up from the sunrise

I'm turning CBS on while I'm navigating one-eyed

barely half awake but the mocha will get me woke

next thing that I know is that beat on is kinda dope

So I slowly make way to my papers I'm always writing

About the beauties of our life and the moments that keep us smiling

Looking through my feed I'm reading current events

A stock ticker on the banner got my plan to invest

If success is really monetary why do wealthy people

Never feel at peace with their pieces they starve for c-notes

So I'm aiming to be grateful with what God has given out to me

I've been a starving artist in my past that's part of me

Walking upon the oddities, rapping as my commodity

Capturing all my images I'm finishing what ought to be

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

How you choose to move is your legacy, entity

Loving those around you keep it heavenly, symmetry

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

Choose your own direction, not just to impress

You never know when we are leaving with a few minutes left

I drive around to places that used to mean a lot to me

To see the life that changes age's like a novelty

Like back in college I would walk around the campus

Now the buildings represent a certain distant type of language

I hear the chatter from the younger in me

Who used to go to every open mic to kill an MC

Who used to hustle all their music using downloaded beats

Defeat was not a part of dialogues that I would just speak - peep

Let's take it further down to memory lane

I’m parked in front of south lake union flashing back through the waves

The graves of all my past mistakes and placed in front of my face

I'm forced to look 'em in the eyes, and try to not look away

We've all been there no point in despair

Hit the wrong attack but canceled out of it in midair

As long as we alive we got the night to make the most of it

Playing all my local hits, I'm chilling by the coastal tip

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

How you choose to move is your legacy, entity

Loving those around you keep it heavenly, symmetry

We all wake up with the same amount of minutes

We're navigating daily with a 24 to live it

Choose your own direction, not just to impress

You never know when we are leaving with a few minutes left
