Timeless
M.A.D. Smooth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Its like they never hear me speak, but feel my actions
Told them I need all my rings like Phil Jackson
They feel Ive gone too far, well happened?
I told them wait on my reaction
Timeless, this shit is timeless
Busy doing work
I don't even know what time is
Timeless, this shit is timeless
Busy doing work
I don't even know what time is
Fit ain't right if it don't say Lo
I killed the whole scene
Put a tag on the toe
Say she ain't a bitch, but I know she a hoe
They want me stop but whole squad on go
Man I'm too cold let me thaw
Big dog, always in the fucking dog house
Man I'm, too cold, let me thaw out
They yelling, Cujo!
Big dog now
Dear Lord please protect me and my friends
I can see the end but I know they vision dim
Out here on a limb, where they charging both ya limbs
Just to make it to the end but I'm never on defense
Tell me again how they say chance slim
Dodging the Grim, cup filled up to the brim
We ain't them, they could never be us
Night owls who crew stay up
They foul, we shoot shit up
Skip trial we tooted up
If I'm going anywhere than its too far
So above par, thats why I'm the numerator
Translator, but they could never see the...
Its like they never hear me speak, but feel my actions
Told them I need all my rings like Phil Jackson
They feel Ive gone too far, well happened?
I told them wait on my reaction
Timeless, this shit is timeless
Busy doing work
I don't even know what time is
Timeless, this shit is timeless




Busy doing work
I don't even know what time is

Overall Meaning

In M.A.D. Smooth's song "Timeless," the lyrics reflect the artist's frustration with being misunderstood and undervalued, while also emphasizing his determination to pursue his goals relentlessly. The opening lines, "Its like they never hear me speak, but feel my actions," convey the artist's belief that his actions speak louder than his words and that his work should be a testament to his success.


The mention of wanting "all my rings like Phil Jackson" refers to the desire for recognition and achievement, comparing it to the many championship rings that basketball coach Phil Jackson has won. Despite any doubts or criticism he may face, the artist remains confident, telling others to "wait on my reaction." This suggests that he will prove himself through his actions and ultimately prove any doubters wrong.


The chorus of the song expresses the notion of timelessness, with the artist being so focused on his work and goals that he loses track of time. The line "Busy doing work, I don't even know what time is" highlights the artist's dedication and commitment to his craft, prioritizing his ambitions over everything else.


The second verse delves into the artist's assertiveness and self-assuredness. He claims his superiority, stating that he killed the whole scene and anyone who doubts him is simply a "ho." The reference to being a "big dog" and being confined to the "dog house" implies that he has overcome obstacles and is now in a position of power and influence.


Additionally, the artist expresses his faith in himself and his friends, seeking protection from the challenges they face while acknowledging that their vision may be clouded. He acknowledges the risks they take but asserts that they are always on the offense rather than defensive. The lyrics also touch on the idea of success, defying the odds, and maintaining a sense of identity and uniqueness in a world where others try to emulate them.
