Killing Time
Hed Lyrics

Baby, I am a survivor
I have endured struggles and hardships and come out on the other side

Baby, I'm on fire
I am driven and passionate about what I am doing

Baby, I'm bout to creep up inside ya
I am making a move towards you, possibly not in the most appropriate way

Getting high all day, drinking whiskey all night
I am living recklessly, constantly indulging in drugs and alcohol

Flipping of the police when them tricks pass by
I have no respect for authority and act out against law enforcement

I'm that fool next door, always late with his rent
I am irresponsible and struggle to fulfill basic obligations, like paying rent

I'm that loser on the couch, watching springer and getting head
I am lazy and engage in activities that do not benefit me or those around me

Dreaming about a better time, better place, better life
I yearn for a life that I do not have, where things are easier and better

Looking for that quick fix, and tweeking all night
I seek immediate gratification, even if it means harming myself in the long run

Just killing time
I do not have any real purpose or direction in my life

Kiss that world goodbye
I am ready to leave behind the life that I have been living

Its all over now
I have reached a breaking point, and something needs to change

Nothing is over now
I am determined to start a new chapter in my life

God knows I tried
I have made an effort, but it has not been enough to overcome my struggles

But no one understands me
I feel alienated and alone in my struggles

The black sheep of the family
I am the outcast of my family and do not fit in with their values or expectations

My enemies - they try to over take me
I have adversaries who are actively trying to harm me or bring me down

Burning and looting till babylon break me
I am willing to engage in destructive behavior to get what I want or to express my anger

Look me in the eyes baby, ride with me
I am trying to persuade someone to join me on my journey, even if it is a misguided one

I can take it there, ride with me
I am convinced that I can lead someone to a better place or a better life

I know what you want, where you live, what you need
I am overly confident in my ability to understand and provide for someone else's needs

I can make it real, hold it down for you, feel you bleed
I believe that I am capable of making someone's dreams or desires a reality, regardless of the cost

I keep my eyes on the stars
I am hopeful for a better future and strive to achieve great things

That's where I come from
My background or upbringing has taught me to aspire to great things, to look beyond my current circumstances
