No Time
E'Dubble Lyrics

No time when you need it most.
You often don't have the time you need when it's most important.

When you should of gone hard,
When you should have put in effort.

But you chose to coast.
But you chose to take it easy and not push yourself.

You made your bed and now
You are now dealing with the consequences of your choices.

You've shit it too.
You have messed things up badly.

With the wrinkles in your forehead.
You are showing signs of stress and worry.

Looking even more dead.
You appear tired and worn out.

Mirrors no friend so you just ignore it.
You avoid facing your problems and weaknesses.

Full steps; No halves.
You need to fully commit yourself, not just partially.

You've got something to prove.
You have a goal or ambition to achieve.

Something to use,
A talent or skill you can utilize.

And you know your
You are aware of your potential.

Neyah, Neyah
A chant of encouragement, urging you on.

Envy all the knee high
You feel envious of young children,

Children with the chance
Who have opportunities and choices ahead of them.

Not to chase those me-guys.
And don't need to pursue relationships or things that won't make them happy.

Look at the clock,
Realize how much time you have left.

And stop chasing the crumbs.
Stop pursuing small or insignificant things and aim for bigger goals.

Pull the stop out, hop out,
Remove obstacles and take action.

And embrace what's done.
Accept and be proud of what you have accomplished.

You want a second chance?
You wish for an opportunity to start again.

Mother-fuck a second chance.
You don't need a second chance, just make the most of your current opportunities.

Be a damn veteran.
Be experienced and skilled in what you do.

Build a fucking batter ram.
Develop a strong and effective strategy.

Get in on the ground floor.
Start from the beginning of something and work your way up.

Be the effin' ground for
Be the foundation for something successful.

Lay them bricks
Work hard and consistently to build your success.

Until you're rich
Until you have achieved your desired level of wealth or success.

And the towns you was down pour
And receive recognition and respect from those who previously didn't believe in you.

On your glass ceiling
Overcoming the limitations and barriers that have held you back.

While your pensions getting cut.
While you may have financial struggles along the way.

Working for the same company since 19-90-what?
You have been working for the same company for a long time, perhaps without progress.

You had your dreams.
You had aspirations and goals at one point in your life.

Trade 'em in for stability,
You gave up your dreams for safety and security.

And some time on the green.
And some leisure time playing golf, a sport you don't even enjoy.

And you don't even like golf,
You have made sacrifices for your boss, even if it goes against your own interests.

But you know your boss does.
Your boss enjoys golf and you are trying to please them.

Suck his dick, and help him pick
Do whatever it takes to keep your boss happy, even if this means compromising yourself.

The fucking right golf club.
Help your boss make the right choices when it comes to golf clubs and you will keep them happy.

Fuck conventional,
Rebel against typical or traditional ways of doing things.

And fuck Mensa too.
Don't rely solely on intelligence or education to succeed.

Be a genius without leaning on a high IQ.
Be creative and innovative in your own way, without measuring success by IQ or education level.

Analog to the digital.
Don't forget about traditional or old-fashioned methods when trying to adapt to new technology or trends.

Tryina get rid of you.
You are being threatened or replaced by something new or better.

Keep tick-tockin',
Time is constantly moving forward, whether you are ready or not.

Evil clock in the living room.
The clock represents a constant reminder of the preciousness of time and the inevitability of death.

12 pack turns to 6,
You are realizing how quickly time is passing.

Then 6 turns to none.
Before you know it, your time is up.

You think you got time
You believe that you have more time than you really do.

So you roll another blunt.
You distract yourself from the reality of the situation.

Snooze button on your passion.
You are not pursuing your passions or interests actively enough.

What happens next is tragic.
If you continue down this path, your end result will be a disappointment or tragedy.

Scared to take the plunge,
You are too afraid to take risks and step out of your comfort zone.

So you sponge bath placid.
You are not ambitious and simply coast through life.

Embarrassed by a dream
You are ashamed or intimidated by your aspirations.

You're not sure you can fulfill.
You doubt your own abilities and potential for success.

So you down play and front,
You pretend that your goals are not important to you.

Like it's no big deal.
In order to avoid criticism or failure.

But it is, and you know it.
You know that your goals and aspirations truly matter to you.

Biggest fear is that you'll blow it.
Your biggest fear is that you will fail or not meet your own expectations.

You know just where the line is,
You know what your limits and boundaries are.

But you're too afraid to tow it.
You are too afraid to push yourself and go beyond what you think you are capable of.

Now you're going in the wrong direction.
You are making choices that go against your own interests or goals.

No time to correct it.
You are running out of time to fix your mistakes or change your path.

You wake up on the other side of a good intention.
You are not following through with your positive intentions and goals.

Wrong side of the spectrum.
You are not on track to meet your aspirations and goals.

No art, just method.
You are not pursuing your dreams creatively or passionately, but just following a plan or formula.

Shit products getting pushed,
Mediocre products or ideas are being marketed successfully.

And the fans left guessing.
Fans or customers are not sure what to expect or what is of real value.

Rest upon your laurels cause this shit's too easy.
You are settling for mediocrity because it's easier than pursuing excellence.

Selling dope to dumb fiends
Selling subpar products to uninformed or unknowing customers.

Who wouldn't know a good CD
Customers who are not knowledgeable or aware of what constitutes a good quality product.

If it bit 'em in the ass.
Even if a good product was right in front of them, they would not recognize its value.

Have a little class.
Have some standards and create something worthy of respect.

Respect your general public.
Consider your audience and create something they will value and appreciate.

Don't... ????
Unclear what E'Dubble is saying due to poor audio quality.

Make some shit that sparks debate.
Create something thought-provoking and impactful that will prompt discussion and analysis.

We don't need another take
We don't need another iteration or version.

On how nice it is to be rich.
A common or easily understood concept that has been done before.

Fuck your Escalade.
A derogatory term used to describe someone who is overly materialistic or flashy.

Twelve pack turns to six,
Time seems to be moving quickly.

Then six turns to none.
There is never enough time to do everything we want to do.

When the clock's tickin'
When time is running out.

Yeah, the plot thickens.
The situation becomes more complicated and difficult.

Take account of what you did.
Take responsibility for your actions and choices.

No not quicken.
Don't rush or hurry through life without taking time to reflect on your choices and actions.

Put a sock in it
Stop talking or complaining and take action.

If you not spitting.
If you are not contributing something valuable or meaningful.

Pendulum is like a guillotine
Time moves forward relentlessly, similar to a guillotine blade that is always in motion.

Chopping shit.
Cutting short or ending things without regard for one's dreams or goals.

I might of lied when I said
E'Dubble admits he may have misled his listeners in the past.

We're alive 'till we die.
We're alive until the moment of our death.

Life's too short, not long.
Life is fleeting and should be appreciated to the fullest.

Gotta get by.
Have to survive and make the most of what we have.

But we gotta get high.
We have to enjoy life to the fullest and not waste a moment.

Happy medium.
Finding a balance between being responsible and pursuing one's dreams.

I'm reading right in between the lines.
E'Dubble is interpreting the meaning behind the lyrics and urging his listeners to do the same.
