Out of time
Felecia Lyrics

I better wake up
I need to start paying attention and making changes

I know you wanna leave me
I am aware that you are considering leaving me

But can I get from the 1st to the 15th at least?
Can we try and make it work until at least the middle of the month?

I know I've been buggin' see
I understand that I have been bothering you

But that's just the thug in me
My tough exterior is just a part of who I am

That's how the thug lovin' be
This behavior is just part of my tough guy persona

Thug only I am
I am a thug and that is something that will not change

Girl I'm just a man
I am a human being with flaws and imperfections

Sippin' on 40 ounces thuggin'
I am drinking a 40 ounce beer and being my tough self

On the block
I was on the street corner

I was doin' my usual
I was doing what I usually do (hustling)

Makin' money
I was earning money

That's when she said...
That is when she spoke to me

Listen up
Pay attention

Ain't playing
I am serious

I think it's time for us to talk
We need to have a serious conversation

Sick and tired of feeling like
I am exhausted from feeling like

A trophy on the wall
An object to show off, rather than a partner to genuinely care for

You don't ever touch me
You never physically show affection towards me

Only time you hold me
The only time you touch me

Is when you feelin' fly
Is when you're feeling proud or successful

And wanna show me to your homies
When you want to show me off to your friends

You think it's all good
You believe everything is going well in our relationship

'Cause I don't really say s***
Because I am a quiet person, and do not often express my feelings or opinions

I'ma get real hood
I am going to be honest and upfront with you, in a way that reflects my tough background

If I don't see some changes
If I do not see improvements in our relationship

'Cause I'm in a new place
Because I am in a new phase of my life

'Bout to start a new phase
I am getting ready to enter a new chapter of my life

You got 'til the first
You have until the first of the month

To try and get yourself on my page
To try and understand my perspective and get on the same page as me

Tick Tock
Time is running out

Boy you running out of time (of time)
You are quickly running out of time to fix things

I promise that I ain't gon' change my mind (my mind)
I promise that I will not change my decision

If you can't get it
If you cannot understand what I am saying

You'll be left behind
I will move on without you

Time up for talkin'
I am no longer interested in talking about this issue

I ain't got nothing left to say
I have said everything that needs to be said

And I don't like repeating myself
I do not enjoy saying the same thing multiple times

So I won't play these games
I will not engage in petty arguments or manipulation

Every time I ask a serious question
Whenever I ask an important question

You be like huh
You act confused or uninterested

If you huh me you can hear me
If you respond with 'huh,' you are indicating that you heard me, but are failing to engage or respond thoughtfully

Why you acting like you dumb?
Why are you refusing to engage with me on this issue, or pretending not to understand?

I'm too cool
I am confident and secure in myself

To be wrecking my brain all over
To be constantly stressing or worrying about this issue

The stuff that you do
The behavior that you engage in

Think I'm playing
Do not underestimate me

Test me I'll show you
If you do not believe me or take me seriously, I will prove you wrong

Can't believe all the mess that I go through
I am frustrated with the amount of drama or problems in our relationship

And I don't have to
I do not deserve or need to deal with this

See I'm up against the race against the clock
I am running out of time to make it work, or to convince you to stay with me

And I'm up against the race against the cops
I am feeling pressure, stress, or anxiety similar to what someone might face when being pursued by the police

It feel like my back's against the wall
It feels like I am in a difficult or desperate situation

Now that I'm racing for your heart
Now that I am trying to win back your love and affection

With all the pressure a n**** is feeling
I am under a lot of pressure and stress

I'm finding it hard for my life
I am struggling to keep going, or to maintain my mental health

To keep pace
To keep up, or to move at a certain speed or rate

What you wanting right now
What are you currently looking for or expecting from me?

Hold on be patient
Wait and be patient

If you only new what a n**** was faced with
If you understood the challenges and difficulties that I am currently experiencing

Heavy off in the game
I am fully committed to the hustle or lifestyle that I lead

True to you boo I ain't running no game
I am being honest and faithful to you

I love you
I genuinely care for you and have strong feelings toward you

You gotta believe me, you gotta believe me
I need you to trust me and believe what I am saying

Don't lose no faith
Do not stop believing in me or our relationship

I'ma give you all of me soon
I am committed to making things work, and will soon demonstrate that fully

Don't lose no faith tonight
Do not give up hope or stop believing in me tonight specifically

Just stay down and I promise to love you
If you can stay patient and remain with me, I will demonstrate my love for you in a more tangible way

For the rest of my life (life)
For the remainder of our lives, if you can commit to staying with me and making things work
