Clocks
Tink Lyrics

A wise man told me the first step towards change is awareness
Being aware of the need for change is the first step to bring about a transformation.

The second step is acceptance
Accepting the need for change is the second step, without which there cannot be any progress.

Are you aware of the changes that are happening around you?
Do you realize the changes that are taking place in your surroundings and how they could impact your life positively or negatively?

Are you willing to accept the change that is upon us?
Are you ready to embrace the changes that are coming, regardless of any discomfort or fear that you may experience?

Cash rules everything around me
Money controls and influences everything in my life.

Tell them broke boys get the fuck from 'round me
If you don't have money, you can't hang around with me.

Once it comes it comes, when it leaves it leaves
Money comes and goes, and we should not take it for granted or become too dependent on it.

You ain't 'bout that life, you can't roll with me, no no
If you are not comfortable with the materialistic lifestyle and the people who live it, then you cannot be a part of my circle.

Time for a shift
It's time for a major change in life, whether it's personal or professional.

Once it comes it comes, when it leaves it leaves
The arrival and departure of money is transitory and temporary.

Money talks and these bitches is mighty quiet
Money holds immense power and influence, and those who don't have it are often marginalized and ignored.

I hear these niggas woofing, I kill 'em with dead silence
I ignore those who try to challenge me or talk trash because they are insignificant to me.

My papers just as long as the legroom inside the Maybach, they hate it
My wealth is as great as the space in a luxurious car, and some people resent me for it.

Won't find me in no club unless I'm gon' be compensated
I do not waste my time in places or events where I'm not going to earn anything.

Spot right on the beach so when I'm home I'm on vacation
I own a prime property on the beach, which feels like a permanent vacation spot.

Fuck you doin', why you never happy?
What is wrong with you? Why are you never satisfied or content with what you have?

If that man ain't get the check then that nigga just don't attract me
If a man does not have money, then he cannot get my attention or affection.

I'm more into the ballers, don't look at me like I'm Draya
I'm attracted to men who are wealthy and influential, not just for their looks or popularity.

I spend it and I waste it, it's plenty more left for later
I indulge in spending and wasting money because I have a lot of it, and I believe there will always be more for me to enjoy later.

These boys can't hang with my clique
These men cannot match the financial status or lifestyle of me and my friends, so they can't be part of our group.

You know I keep a bankroll, that won't fold, the same sizes, they thick
I always have a lot of cash on hand, and it never runs out because I manage my money well.

I'm in a playful ass mood, you gotta pay for this ride
I'm feeling mischievous and flirtatious, and if you want to be part of my vibe, you need to pay or contribute something.

I make a scene and when I leave, I make 'em stand like the bride
I attract a lot of attention wherever I go, and when I leave, people are left in awe like a bride at her wedding.

Let's get these rappers on the alter, better pray while they can
Rappers should be prepared to be tested or challenged by me as I am an influential and skilled rapper myself.

I'm comin' heavy as a pound, these niggas still on the gram
I'm performing with a lot of intensity and skill while my peers are content with just posting pictures on Instagram.

I get a kick out of doin' business and living life
I derive pleasure and excitement from conducting business and experiencing life in all its aspects.

You getta' kick outta fuckin' bitches with hella' likes
You derive pleasure and satisfaction from having sex with women who have a lot of followers or popularity on social media.

We in a different state of mind
We have a unique and different mentality or mindset.

I ain't never heard the word declined
I have never been denied or refused anything in life because of my wealth or status.

All I think about is time
Time is something that I prioritize and value above other things in life.

I need it around the clock
I require time constantly and without interruption.

(I want you to think Tink
I want you to focus on me and my music.

If you not thinking Tink then I'ma say you not thinking
If you're not paying attention to me, then you're not paying attention to what matters most.

Because there's nothing else worth thinking about
My music and my message are the most important and valuable things to think about.

Life doesn't get better by chance
Improvement and progress in life are not accidental or coincidental events.

It get's better by change
Change is the key to improving and making life better.

I don't give a fuck about no gossip, they whispering who's better
I'm not interested in or affected by rumors or debates about who is superior or more talented.

Man I'm at these niggas throats, and that shit goes for whoever
I'm focused on competing and surpassing other rappers, regardless of who they are.

I'm hoping you get it twisted, don't care if you feel offended
I want to provoke or shock you with my lyrics, and I don't care if you are offended or upset.

I know that you heard my name
I'm aware that people know me or recognize my talent and influence.

I'm just waiting for you to diss it, oh yes
I'm expecting or hoping that someone will challenge me or criticize me publicly, so that I can prove my superiority.

I'ma blow right at your top, John Kennedy
I'm going to defeat or destroy my opponents as if I were a sharpshooter targeting the head of John F. Kennedy.

Nothin' I hate more than a nigga with bitch tendencies
I can't stand men who are weak or insecure and display feminine qualities or behavior.

That's like 99% of y'all
The majority of the male rappers in the industry exhibit such weakness or insecurity, and I have no respect for them.

I tell these niggas bow their heads like I was rappin' out the synagogue
I want my fellow rappers to show respect and deference to me as if I were a religious leader or authority figure.

Yeah I'll wait, ? Grind day
I'm willing to wait and work hard every day for my success and goals.

Make him put his face next to my waist and he got down like my fiancée
I can make a man submit to me easily and willingly, as if he were my fiancé.

Shit was 'bout an hour
The process of making a man submit to me took only an hour to accomplish.

I need a nigga with some power, movin' forward, Dwight Howard
I want a man who is strong and influential, like the famous basketball player Dwight Howard, on my team as I progress forward.

That's the party, we rollin' like a Harley
We are celebrating and enjoying ourselves at this event, riding and cruising on our motorcycles.

I showed up with them bands so every nigga in this club came tardy
I arrived at the club with a large amount of cash, causing everyone else to arrive late or be behind schedule by comparison.

No, no, no
An expression of refusal or rejection.

Tink spit that ghetto gospel
Tink is sharing and preaching the truth and experiences of the ghetto and street life through her music.

I need it around the clock
I require time constantly and without interruption.

I need it, I need it
I must have time for my success and goals.
