Intro
Ahaha ahaha
keep it on, keep it on
keep your head on
time is tickinâ, time is tickinâ
tickinâ away
uhhohuho
Rap 1
Letâs talk about time
tickinâ away every day
so wake on up before itâs gone away
catch the 411 and stay up like the sun
remind yourself whatâs done is done
so let yesterday stay with the bygones
keep your body and soul and your mind on
the right track infact you gotta stay on the real black
donât turn around and donât look back
we tryinâ to take the positive to another level
Red Dogg digginâ deep Mr. P got the shouvel
Iâll level with you I played in a foul picture
but now I got my mental sewel up like a stitcher
I used to be a "P" try on to clock "Gâs" living wild blast
you before you blast me thats the lifestyle
and I could see it on the evening news
itâs just another brutha shot
on either stretched doin time
Hookline
Time is tickinâ away
youâve gotta - live your life
day by day
happy or sad, good or bad,
life is to short
youâve gotta - keep your head (2x)
Rap 2
Keep your head one more time and feel the rythm
Iâm tellinâ your life is to short you know the feelinâ
you want to do more your selfesteem is in the way
you better take a kid and live it day by day
but anyway Iâm going for mine Iâm still broke itâs no joke
they still got me hanginâ from the ropeâs
take time and still do the right thing
and not the wrong so listen to the wordâs of the song
Tick Tock your seconds away from the judgement day
so get your mind ready take the Evilâs but out way
bring back we cut no slack we kick factâs
the positive message on this tracks is exact the way we feel it
in the nineteen 90âs chillinâ with red in the mix your find me - rewind me
and turn back my mind thinkinâ about the homies
is the pen doing time
Hookline
Prayer
Once again
CBK on da track
to wake up your mind
who know what tomorrow night bring
violence - destruction - who knows?
âcause time is slippinâ away
Bridge
The world keeps spinning
around and round
weâve gotta keep ourselves
from going down
in a world full of passion,
pleasure and pain
the pressureâs get into my brain
Hookline (2x)
