Clocks Tick Slow

[Verse 1]
Let me pick the position
That you been missing
Cause I’ve completed my mission
So I can stop complaining

I guess I should’ve listened
Maybe if I had the tears wouldn’t glisten
Wishing on the shooting stars in the late nights
Can I fight back before I lose it

I tried to step back but, I couldn’t undo it
The shadows were ruthless
Had me walking shoeless
Every move made was useless
But I still had to move it
No matter if it was an illusion or just confusion

Looking back saying I’m fine who am I fooling
Still stuck what am I doing
Maybe it seems hopeless but I’m still moving
Stuck in time while everyone's grooving
Waiting for this shit got me so done it’s grueling

[Interlude]
If I’m being honest lately I’ve not been myself
I’m still trying to find ways to pick myself up
But, I won’t let myself be stuck forever
I will make myself better
It just takes time even through the clocks tick slow just know everything will be fine
I promise you

[Verse 2]
I remember that tone in your voice when I lied
In that moment My eyes shined
I wished could rewind time
But, It’s so far that it’s out of line
Somethings gotta change before I’m just a shrine
Is it a crime to want more when you have less
I understand I’m blessed but that don’t mean I gotta rest
This life ain’t a game but, I’ll still beat the quest
I ain’t tryna be the best only tryna see what’s next
I know this a lot to digest, But I had to confess
All my sins before I down a bottle of gin like a sailor
I guess I’ll just grab my inhaler

[Outro]
And so I began this journey over the past few years
To find myself to make myself better but, it hasn’t been easy
It’s been full of things that I’ve done that I regret and honestly a lot of issues with myself
Self hatred, denial, losing friends, losing people but, I gained people at the same time
It’s not all dark and so this was my story let me know what was yours
