Time Is of the Essence

How you ever just sat in a quiet room and listen to the clock tick?
Thinking about all the time that you have missed
There's 24 hours in a day, what you choose to do with it?
From time to time I spend my time trying to analyze the things in my life
Hoping god will continue to give me time to make things right
For the times I was immature and it's nobody fault I was just lost
But the precious price of time came with a cost

Life is not a game but sometimes we need a time out to sort our minds out
There's a few times were I lost mines, searching for it with no sense of direction
So I didn't know what to find
Trying my best not to fall behind the times
Watching my steps not crossing over enemy lines
Knowing life can change with a drop of a dime or a pop of a nine
Know a couple of niggas doing time
Sitting around while their minds are running around trying
To keep up with the times but the times has lapsed them
So from time to time we post them with the hashtag
And free next to their name for the caption
Hoping time can heal all wounds but that's time we can't give back to them

We all are in a race with Father Time, but at times I just wish I had more time with mines
So at this time I ask you Heavenly Father, that when its time for me
To a become a father my future son will see errors in my ways and move sharper n smarter
Live his life full of stories as long as he's the author
Show him how to deal with love so he just not lusting over someone daughter

Time waits on no man as it changes
So don't waist ya time while life ages
Waiting on the right time to determine ya faith but even a broken clock is right at least twice a day
Just take ya time and move at ya own pace, just don't lose track of time and get stuck in ya old ways
Lost times is something that can't be replaced
Time after time so many of us make this mistake
Instead of giving thanks and grace for the time we still have today
