No Time
Dough-Boy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
'Cos I got no time no time to hear you talk now
No time so get off my cock now
No time so don't ask for no favors
No time to wait boy I'm not a waiter
So tired I don't wanna hear your songs now
Got no time 'cos I'm so tired to get along
No time my crew say true that
No time 'cos my city moves fast
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
'Cos I got no time no time to read your newsfeed
No time 'cos I'm making this new beat
No time got no time to give you help
No time no time go find somebody else
No time to chill no time to smoke
No time to drink no time to hear your jokes
No time for that you really you're funny
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha if it ain't about the money
I got no time my crew say true that
No time 'cos my city moves fast
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
Now don't rub me the wrong way I just had a long day
And if you piss me off there ain't no telling what I'm gone say
All the time you think I won't mind
What's APP I'm online with blue ticks I don't reply
Why don't you know I hate to socialize
And I'm at the party all I do is close my eyes
'Cos I don't wanna see your fake smiles and ugly faces
fuck your event dressing up in these fuckin' places
Hypocrites doing business
With your mistresses now listen bitch
I got no time so you better move back
No time 'cos my city moves fast
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
And I'm burning down my bridges
I don't cross no rivers
I got my feet on the ground
And I'm burning down my bridges




I don't cross no rivers
I ain't fucking around
