[Chorus]
A lot of things weigh heavy on the mind
Gotta stay ready, we're steadily gettin' by
Watch the sunrise and the day goes by
We can make a lot of money but we can't buy time
[Verse 1]
Self reflection, skit perfection (Uh-huh)
Which direction to step next in? (Yeah)
Life's perplexin', people textin'
Taxi horn beeps; watch the pedestri- (Okay)
Ens, they move round like program (Oh)
Mom and Dad raised a good lad (Yep)
Yes I did fall, here I do stand
See what I did as proof that you can
[Chorus]
A lot of things weigh heavy on the mind
Gotta stay ready, we're steadily gettin' by
Watch the sunrise and the day goes by
We can make a lot of money but we can't buy time
[Refrain]
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by with a
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by
[Verse 2]
Prison systems, social distance (Mmh)
Much resistance gone in an instant
Different intentions, twisting wrenches
Workin' for pensions, overextension (Wow)
Different dimensions, Twitter mentions
Strong defenses, weapon incentives
Music collectives writin' the next hit
Checkin' their metrics, I bet they think this: (Yeah)
[Chorus]
A lot of things weigh heavy on the mind
Gotta stay ready, we're steadily gettin' by
Watch the sunrise and the day goes by
We can make a lot of money but we can't buy time
[Refrain]
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by with a
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by
[Verse 3]
Universal, dress rehearsals
Life is not like those commercials (No)
Rap dispersal, tap the Morse Code
Hungry kids run, there the purse goes
Who's to blame now? Trace the roots back
Every smartphone's now a news stand
Rockets lift off regularly
Lots of friends in cemeteries (Let's go)
[Chorus]
A lot of things weigh heavy on the mind
Gotta stay ready, we're steadily gettin' by
Watch the sunrise and the day goes by
We can make a lot of money but we can't buy time
[Refrain]
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by with a
Heavy mind, days go by
Can't buy time, tryin' to get by
