Quinn Essential - Time Flies Lyrics

Gray sky's, life was passing me by
Wanted to fly, all I had to do is try
Hate seeing my baby cry
Told her Daddy will be back
Her father's a rolling stone
I'm a man of many hats
In the, pursuit of happiness, gallivanting the globe
They know that I'm a foreign because of my wardrobe
Bury me in oak grove, when it's all said and done
I just want to complete my cycle And be home, by square one
Fear none, Mickey's son, is a bad motherf*cker
All of these other suckas suck compared to the kid from dugger
Still undiscovered, so please excuse my outbursts
The inner city niggas used to clown us from the outskirts
Down the mystic river, where my origin rans parallel
Paint a pretty picture, even caught your eye with the aquarelle
I stayed around here like a carousel, ain't shit sweet like caramel
You'll learn a lot from my parables
Time flies in the blink of an eye
You realize every opportunity you've missed that went by
Even if you had a chance and never gave it try
You look back and a little piece of you dies. Time Flies, Time Flies
The Only son, of Joseph, hope I'm making him proud
Micky's boy's never, a face in the crowd
This whole tape, I've been thinking out loud
I swear and vowed to be all I can be
Even though my life's like the Old man and the sea
Lucky me, I'll never give in
I stay driven, a couple of bad decisions, will never crush my ambition.
Love how they feed pidgins but shoot eagles
I'm battling a few evils, they hate that I'm too regal
Look I stay hot, you know the sun don't chill
Everybody's too cool, so they hoping I will
That's the price, you kick ill rhymes, you foot the bill
They see I'm alive and well, even if looks could kill
Secretly admiring, from like the foot of the hill
Asking all type of questions, running me through the mill, Chill
It never crosses my mind what you think
Won't get trapped in the quicksand, time flies when you blink
Time flies in the blink of an eye
You realize every opportunity you've missed that went by
Even if you had a chance and never gave it try
You look back and a little piece of you dies
Time Flies, Time Flies you end up with a list of regrets
Being haunted by your past, you can't seem to forget
Or you know your destination, haven't made it there yet
Time flies don't let it get you depressed, Time Flies Time Flies
Time flies in the blink of an eye, you realize every opportunity you've missed that went by
Even if you had a chance and never gave it try. You look back and a little piece of you dies
Time Flies, Time Flies you end up with a list of regrets
Being haunted by your past, you can't seem to forget
Or you know your destination, haven't made it there yet
Time flies don't let it get you depressed, Time Flies Time Flies
