We On
Gemini ft. Lupe Fiasco & Pooh Bear Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you lend me a hand?
Can you help me to see?
Can you reconcile this war inside of me?

Time is slipping away
And I don't seem to mind
I'm missing something that I can't seem to define
Remember we die
But you're still alive
So don't let go
'Cause it's the only thing you know
There's plenty of time
To see the other side

Remember we die
But until we arrive
Don't let go
Just let the light shine from your soul
Before we run out of time
Remember we die

Can you lend me your ears?
I have something to say
I want to care before it all just slips away
It's a cunning illusion that time is on my side
I want to feel before I have to say goodbye

Remember we die
But you're still alive
So don't let go
'Cause it's the only thing you know
There's plenty of time
To see the other side

Remember we die
But until we arrive
Don't let go
Just let the light shine from your soul
Before we run out of time
Remember we die

I used to beg the angels
To carry me away
But as the sand drifts by I'm begging to let me stay

Remember we die
But you're still alive
So don't let go
'Cause it's the only thing you know
There's plenty of time
To see the other side

Remember we die
But until we arrive
Don't let go
Just let the light shine from your soul




Before we run out of time
Remember we die

Time is slipping away
Time is passing quickly


And I don't seem to mind
I am not bothered by it


I'm missing something that I can't seem to define
There is something that I am lacking or longing for, but I can't quite pinpoint what it is


Remember we die
Keep in mind that we all have a limited time on earth


But you're still alive
But you still have time in the present moment


So don't let go
Don't give up or lose hope


'Cause it's the only thing you know
Because this is the only life and experience you have


There's plenty of time
There is enough time to seize the opportunities in life


To see the other side
To experience or understand the unknown or different perspectives


Can you lend me your ears?
Can you listen to what I have to say?


I have something to say
I have a message or idea that I want to share


I want to care before it all just slips away
I want to live my life with meaning and purpose before time runs out


It's a cunning illusion that time is on my side
It's a deceptive belief that I have all the time in the world


I want to feel before I have to say goodbye
I want to experience emotions and connections with others before the end of life


I used to beg the angels
I used to wish for divine intervention or escape


To carry me away
To remove me from my current situation or reality


But as the sand drifts by I'm begging to let me stay
But as time passes, I am realizing the preciousness of life and wanting to remain in the present moment


Just let the light shine from your soul
Allow your true self to shine and be expressed


Before we run out of time
Before our limited time on earth comes to an end
