Out Of Time Letras

[Verse 1]
Running out of time, we running out of time
Pastor say we need some saving 'fore we out of time
They assassinated our minds and celebrate the life
It continues, the babies need tools to survive with
And build a better humanity, not this living all lavishly in our Birk' bag fantasies
Want enough for a hut in Havana where they as tan as me
Terracotta walls and private quarters for my mama, nah
Nothing fancy at all, just something to call ours
Money respects blue checks in power
I told monsieur I'm inspired by Final Hour
Nae-Nae ain't raise a coward, I got it locked like I'm from Broward
Mercury's in retro, Jordan with dissonance is all around us
Spirit said, "Get it, girl, put it back just where you found it"
I'd rather take over this thing than be in a panic
Meals still cut from Granny's patchwork fabric

[Verse 2]
Mic rippin' at the seam, might go and up a fee
While my enemy at least, it ain't as sweet as it seem
I wanna see less and less, sorry I ain't get your text
I was feeling overwhelmed, 'cause in the distance I can hear them
Yelling, being immature and war over wells
Makes me wanna hug an elm, guess we drying up the well
They say we running out of time, running out of time
Man, I can tell, birds and bees ain't quite being themselves
Ain't heard no buzzing in a while, honey child
Still, they hit the boys out here, niggas in Paris
Yeah, we still running out of time, running out of life and natural life
Empathy reliable, information, patience in our minds
Running out of opportunities to ever see twenty-five, yeah, we running

[Outro]
This was written September 1974
Sorry to bother you at a time like this, but I just got the news
You know what's really amazing? Our rich great land is the world's peacekeeping institution
Oh, yeah
