The Time - 24/7 (feat. Nate) Lyrics

Remember how it was?
It doesn't matter now
It's forever changed
The hateful words we said
Did we even love each other, anyway?

You were on my mind 24/7
Thinkin' of them words that I never said
Trapped inside my mind 24/7
I guess it doesn't matter now, anyway

Guess I never meant to
Say the things that I said (Said)
But I'm just wastin' time 'til I'm dead (Dead)
Maybe my brain's just fried in my head (Head)
Maybe I'm complacent when I shouldn't be

That's something you would say to me if it were you and me
And I wonder if it even matters
Fight until we're tattered
I ain't Marshall Mathers. So I ain't gonna' chatter 'bout batters
But I get heated right before I write a eulogy

Every second chance
Every naked dance
Flex again
Then a couple of words that we never meant
And we're back on a break again
Niggas rubber neck. Better keep their head in check
Anything to get respect

Cause they're always whorin' at you
But opposites attract so maybe I match you
Runnin' out of energy
Probably under attack soon
But I'd do anything just to catch you

My attitude stays calm but
It turns to napalm when you face palm
Cause I'm gettin' my ape on
Sitting in pajamas, not doin' shit
So I'm like "Ok mom"

But it's true that without it, I wouldn't be shit
Half and half. I think I've gone daft
People like to laugh but it's not a joke
It's a lot of hope
It was you that taught me to never mope

Remember how it was?
It doesn't matter now
It's forever changed
The hateful words we said
Did we even love each other, anyway?

You were on my mind 24/7
Thinkin' of them words that I never said
Trapped inside my mind 24/7
I guess it doesn't matter now, anyway

I don't wanna' run out of passion
I'm asking God "How far do I have to take it?"
Cause I'm feelin' so vacant
Vacation doesn't exist so I stay achin'

Is it love? Or is it just another dream?
It was me who made your brother king
In case you were wondering
I stepped down and admitted I was wrong
Oh, and another thing

I've been becoming mean out of spite
Because of these ugly demons f*ckin' keepin' company
And you would think they were mine this time. Again
But no

Trust me. You don't wanna' see
One reason I stay hungry's cause these
Motherf*ckers aren't wantin' peace
They wanna see me six feet deep in the dirt and still be makin' fun of me

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind
But not me this time (Time)
I'm gonna shine
I know I can't rewind but I know I'm "Time" (Time)

I don't even know why I try
But I don't give up and I'll probly keep on goin' 'til I die
Lovin' myself
Lovin' you too
Until I've made up my ever loving mind

Remember how it was?
It doesn't matter now
It's forever changed
The hateful words we said
Did we even love each other, anyway

You were on my mind 24/7
Thinkin' of them words that I never said
Trapped inside my mind 24/7
I guess it doesn't matter now, anyway

It's not your fault
I understand that
And I know that I'm vain
And I know that I change but this time I may be fubar
Too hard to explain

From the moment I wake up to the moment I work out
To the moment I sleep I think about the things that I've done
And What I've become or who I was how and
How I'll be runnin' but never will I be complete

I'm rappin' these bars like "Yuck"
"Who gives a f*ck?" and I'm stuck in my mind
But it's ironic cause it's these lines that keep me goin'
So I'm flowin' like coke and I'm on it

So maybe you're right (Right)
I just need to slow down
Do I even need to write?
Do you already know now?

I know that sometimes you get so grossed out
The stupid shit I wrote about
And you said "Oh wow. Like you're a poet now"
"You can't even open your mouth to stand up for yourself"
"And you think that you'll be showin' out"

So much doubt but you fought 'til the end
It was then that I thought "I don't need to pretend"
And the ink in the pen that I bought let me breathe and it mends
I was caught
I was bleedin' with N

Remember how it was?
It doesn't matter now
It's forever changed
The hateful words we said
Did we even love each other, anyway

You were on my mind 24/7
Thinkin' of them words that I never said
Trapped inside my mind 24/7
I guess it doesn't matter now, anyway
