No Time To Waste
R.O.E. Lyrics

All I know is how to get it
I have a strong determination to succeed and I focus solely on achieving my goals.

Comfy in my skin with the life that I'm living
I am content with who I am and the choices I've made that have brought me to where I am today.

Since my younger days my ways been labeled gifted
People have recognized my natural talent and skills from a young age.

I pen it in these lyrics let the others spit the gibberish
I use my talent for writing to create meaningful lyrics, unlike other artists who produce nonsensical music.

I got the whole crowd with they hands up
The audience is fully engaged and enthusiastic about my performance.

They hooked to every word I'm putting in this stanza
The audience is captivated by every line of my song and feels an emotional connection to the lyrics.

Slikk and I the architects painting on this canvas
Slikk and I are the masterminds behind the creation of this song, and we're using our talents to create something beautiful.

Ain't no guessing game here, ain't no need for Vanna
There's no confusion or uncertainty in the message of this song, and it doesn't require someone to explain or clarify it.

They saying that they love me now but love me when I am gone
People may show affection and support for me now, but will they continue to do so when I'm no longer in the spotlight?

Or will they call me Hollywood when they think that I'm on
People may criticize me as being too flashy or arrogant if they think I've achieved too much success.

These raps stamp my passport around the world we can roam
My music has given me the opportunity to travel and experience different cultures around the world.

Put the fuel to the fire so we never be home
We are always working hard and pushing ourselves to achieve more, so we don't have much time to relax or stay at home.

And I know it's quite evident
It's clear to see and obvious that I am a talented artist and entrepreneur.

That there's a lotta emcees that I'm better than
In terms of talent and skill, I am better than many other artists in the music industry.

Ain't nothing change since I changed my residence
Despite moving to a new location, my determination and work ethic remain the same.

Fist high, still do it for the melanin
I am proud of my heritage and cultural identity, and I use my success to empower others with a similar background.

Gon' head and check it then
If you don't believe me, go ahead and see for yourself.

It ain't no time to waste
I don't have time to waste, and I need to stay focused on achieving my goals.

Got it no matter of time of day
I am determined to succeed, regardless of what time it is.

Keep it moving cuz I ain't got time to play
I need to stay focused and productive, and I don't have time for distractions or games.

Best believe that I'm gon' find away
I have a strong belief in myself and my abilities, and I will find a way to overcome any obstacles in my path.

I can't give time away
I am aware of the importance of time and take advantage of every moment to achieve my goals.

Picking right up where I left off
I continue to work hard and make progress towards my goals, without losing momentum or motivation.

Ain't no need to tell that you feel that I'm slept on
I don't need others to recognize my talent, because I know my worth and potential.

Quitting ain't an option so pushing I kept on
I am determined to succeed and won't give up, even when faced with challenges or setbacks.

I knew I was ahead of my time like the Jetsons
I have always had a strong sense of my own talents and potential, even if others didn't recognize it at the time.

Never derail me, my drive will propel me
I won't let obstacles or setbacks stop me, because my motivation and determination will keep me moving forward.

Gotta keep pushing, know my feet don't fail me
I need to continue working hard and putting in effort towards my goals, because I am capable and won't let myself down.

Trapping out my SuperPhone cuz these labels can't sell me
I am using modern technology to distribute and promote my music independently, without relying on traditional record labels.

Imma make it independent I don't care what they tell me
I believe in my ability to succeed as an independent artist, even if the music industry tells me otherwise.

Spent 10k on the road and didn't make it back on shows
I invested a significant amount of money into touring and performing, but didn't earn a profit from those shows.

That's the part of the story that never gets told
Many people only see the success and not the financial struggles and risk-taking that comes with being an independent artist.

Didn't sell enough records to dream of going gold
I didn't sell a large enough number of records to achieve mainstream success, like earning a gold record certification.

But in the palm of my hand, it's the world I hold
Even without mainstream success, I have the power and influence to connect with fans and make an impact on the music industry.

Come back in tenfold, the respect I get
The respect and recognition I receive for my hard work and talent is worth more to me than any financial gain.

Has truly outweighed any of the checks I get
The intangible rewards of success, like respect and recognition, are more valuable to me than the financial rewards.

So imma grind even harder on my next idea
I won't let my current success make me complacent, and I will continue to work hard and pursue new ideas and projects.

Going hard, guaranteed this the best I did
I am confident in my abilities and the quality of my work, and I know that I am putting forth my best effort to create something great.

No time to waste
I can't afford to waste time, and I need to keep working towards my goals with focus and determination.
