Don't Blink

Time gives legitimacy to its existence
Time is the only true unit of measure
It gives proof to the existence of matter
Without time we don’t exist

Don’t blink, no
Gotta stay woke
Time keeps slipping, I don’t want wanna die broke
Don't sleep, no
Hold it in close
Soak it all up 'cause life is too short
Don't blink
(Don't blink)
Don't blink
(Don't blink)

I've been sitting here
Same shit different year
Every day the grim reaper gets a little nearer
I think its weird though, how the time flies
Its not fair that I'm here, while my friends die
I’m a - I’m a live it for them
I won’t waste a second now
I won’t ever skip a meal again I’m eating seconds now
Live it to the fullest for my brothers Tom and Iyayi (E.I.)
Til I D-I-E, I swear I won’t forget that time is precious now
I don’t wanna close my eyes
I just wanna know where my soul is
I don’t wanna end this night
All we got now is the moment

I know my mama told me
Back when I was a shorty
That if I wasn’t careful
My life would pass before me
She felt like I was born
Just like a week ago
And there I was before her
At 17 years old
I'ma- I'ma live it for her
I won’t waste a second though
Sacrificed her life to give me fortunes that she’d never know
She told me that its cold, but its life though
Don’t blink baby boy, never keep ya eyes closed
I don’t wanna close my eyes
I just wanna know where my soul is
I dont wanna end this night
All we got now is the moment

I said don’t blink
Don't cry
Don't close
Your eyes
I said don’t blink
Don't cry
Don't close
Your eyes

So keep ya eyes on the time
'Cause it's gone before ya know it
