No Time
Makai Keyes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at
Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at

Ayo Keyes, where you been at
Got a couple questions, I don’t know where to begin at
Know you doing music but I’m asking where’s your plan at
Where’s your hundred bands, your advance, did you spend that
I can’t take all of the questions
If I’m being honest I was dealing with depression
Caught up in the moment so I counted all my blessings
And I promised to myself I would focus on progression
I was stuck in the past
Took a second to grasp
‘Cause I was focused on the moments that formerly passed
In that time I had nearly ruined my health
Knew I had to make a change, I was busy saving myself
Like damn
Look how much I changed now
Only thing the same is my veins and my name now
And if you been looking for me I ain’t got the time
I’m just tryna make it better, only settle for sublime, saying
Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at
Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at
It’s on my mind, I cannot be blind
Told you ‘bout my faith coming outside
Show you what I’m on, this ain’t a downside
All of this time been praying to the dark side
That is too much, who next for this fade
Now I’m thinking to myself, ain’t no time for remains
On my life been thinking ‘bout a change
Now it’s on me
I been going ‘bout some ways
Don’t be on me
Too much to throw away, guess I’ll fade away
I won’t be gone up in a day, I got some ways to go
Why you capping man, you gone off that shit again
Don’t let me set the static to your dome, if you know
There’s no way to go, I’ma stay waiting for the road
If I’m talking bold, you should know, goddamn
Ion think you’ll ever understand what’s home
I just hope you never get it back, no
Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at
Oh my, look at what I’m spending
So high, bitch I ain’t descending
So fly, in these jets I’m renting
No time, to tell you where I been at
Time, I ain’t got no time

I got no time
Time, no time

Don't let me bring unnecessary conflict or tension to your mind, if you understand

There’s no way to go, I’ma stay waiting for the road
There is no clear direction to pursue, so I will remain patient and wait for a path to appear

If I’m talking bold, you should know, goddamn
If I am speaking boldly, you should be aware, expressing surprise or frustration

Ion think you’ll ever understand what’s home
I don't think you will ever comprehend the concept of 'home'

I just hope you never get it back, no
I merely wish that you will never regain or find 'it' again, expressing uncertainty regarding the exact meaning of 'it'

Time, I ain’t got no time
Time, I don't have any time

I got no time
I don't have any time

Time, no time
Time, there is no time
