about

This is a song about a friend of mine named Cliff and his Mother Rosa... Rest in Peace Mama Rosa.God Bless

lyrics

Looking down at my watch watching time watching me
Watching people watching time move from deep breaths taken in
Watching people’s life change moving up moving down moving on
Always moving never staying the same
From here I see a sea of faces going through phases living life facing love
Facing tribulations different but the same
All the while still changing trying to play the game getting older getting better
Growing wiser with age

Living on time,
Borrowed time,
Living on time,
Borrowed time.

Always watching the watch while watching me watch time marching on
Minds and eyes are open looking for the light
People dying bullets flying mothers crying asking why
Kneeling down folded hands lookin to the sky
Love is leavin earth its worth is growing smaller day by day
Anger blinds the wise to only see their rage
With all this fighting it gets hard to keep peace on my mind
Oceans of their tears reverberate in time

And I’m
On time,
Borrowed time,

I hope you took the time to take the words I’m preachin in the song
We all got time on Earth but we don’t have very long
Grieving faces needing space but warm embrace from holy hands
Imbued with love impatient peace cannot be wrong
Cliff and Rosa knew that life itself is bout four letters long
So Cliff ain’t sad though now that his mother Rosa’s gone
So take this time to tell the ones you care don’t be scared
Just look them in the eyes and let them know that you’ll be there

Cause we’re
On time
Borrowed time
On time Borrowed time
