Intro
The clock on the wall feel louder tonight Every breath got weight when the seconds feel tight
Verse 1
I been scrolling my life like it’s highlights and clips Skipping past all the moments that needed my grip Told my mom I’d call back, let the days run away Now her voice in my head every word I didn’t say Love on cruise control, heart stuck in neutral Thought forever was promised, now forever feels brutal I was betting on time like it owed me a favor Didn’t know every minute was cutting the paper
Chorus
I’m playing the whole game like the last two minutes Every move count now, yeah the past still in it No more waiting on signs, no more half-way living When the clock run low, that’s when truth get different
Verse 2
I’ve seen friends turn strangers over pride and texts Read between the lines, yeah the silence said less Stayed too long in rooms that was killing my light Called it loyalty, really I was scared of the fight Love taught me lessons I never enrolled in Hearts don’t come spare, they just crack when they broken I was chasing “someday” like it lived down the road Didn’t know someday heavy, yeah it travel with load
Bridge 1
If I leave here tonight, what did I stand on? Would my name ring true when the lights gone? All these what-ifs sitting deep in my chest Only thing that’s real is the next breath
Verse 3
Now I say what I mean, I don’t save it for later Tell the truth even when it make things unstable I forgive who I can, cut the weight I been dragging I don’t need every win, see the loss as a passage Love with my chest, yeah no bulletproof heart If it end tomorrow, I still played my part I don’t fear the end, I respect the minute ‘Cause the value of time is how you spend in it
Chorus
I’m playing the whole game like the last two minutes Every move count now, yeah the past still in it No more waiting on signs, no more half-way living When the clock run low, that’s when truth get different
Bridge 2
If this all end soon, let it say I tried Let it say I loved hard, never lived disguised No replay button, no revising the sentence So I’m standing on now like it’s last two minutes
Chorus
I’m playing the whole game like the last two minutes Every move count now, yeah the past still in it No more waiting on signs, no more half-way living When the clock run low, that’s when truth get different
Chorus
I’m playing the whole game like the last two minutes Every heartbeat loud when the end feel near it If this all I got, I ain’t gonna waste it Living every second like I can’t replace it
Outro
No pause, no rewind, no pretending I was present at the end , that’s the sentence
Inside the recording
The clock on the wall feel louder tonight Every breath got weight when the seconds feel tight
I’m playing the whole game like the last two minutes Every move count now, yeah the past still in it
No pause, no rewind, no pretending I was present at the end , that’s the sentence
