Timeless
Ray Lansing Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time of the day, Time's on the clock, Tick Tock on my watch as I watch time tick
Time of your life man, time is a bitch
Time is a tick on the tip of your tounge, take sips, drip drip
Take a dip where the ticks swim, Haven't spent much time in the trenches
How much time did a nigga spend in line?
Time, time, time I'm timeless
That's why I'm taking my time, spit at the drop of a dime
I've got a lot on my mind and it's pressing
I've been stressing, it's interesting, and impressing, I learned lessons
So now I'm speaking my mind, I gotta keep it in time
Give them a piece of my mind, in case they ever put a piece to my mind
And speaking of mine, I take life like a week at a time
My weakness is... Time
Depending on the length of the
Time of the day, Time's on the clock, Tick Tock on my watch as I watch time tick
Time of your life man, time is a bitch
Time is a tick on the tip of your tounge, take sips, drip drip
Take a dip where the ticks swim
Haven't spent much time in the trenches




How much time did a nigga spend in line?
Time, time, time I'm timeless
