Clocks Lyrics

Verse 1 [Tok Sik]
Last year being broke, just a smooth intellect
Scholar or a baller, It’s the same in my set
Saved by the bell again
Tryna be a letterman
Tryna be better man
Cuz if I settle I'm a sediment

Oh Lord
I'm watching the clock plotting the hours and got 4 more
Lost up in my thought pool thinking about folklores
They cutting corners while my squad’s an artesian
This shit isn't random it's part of the sequence

No quadratics needed for social validity
Teacher told me makes notes
So I went ahead and made a symphony
Swimming in what's ifs, a desert shark intercollegiate
Classmates tell me that they running shit they paraplegic

Someone pinch me I'm dreaming
Somebody shade me I’m beaming
Somebody cool me I’m steaming
I got the dope like I'm feenin'
Boy chill
They tell me you just gotta pay your bills
Why you tryna aim so high?
Just be real

Chorus [Tok Sik]

Just deserted in my thoughts
Wanting it to stop
Year in and year out
We’re staring at the clocks
We’re staring at the clocks

Verse 2 [Zapien]

It’s the short guy in the crew like I’m Eazy E
Shit I use to not know how to rap like Eazy E
Now this shit is too easy, like a bitch on E
Flip these words like my niggas they be flipping trees

Acrobatics, expand your mind, this shit elastic
New kid in the game girl show me around the campus
Let me be your compass, star guide you to the north
Wisdom in the winter elders wearing winter clothes

Chemistry as we compose
Einstein as a bandmate
Class is in session no cheating off yo classmate
Abc
123
Do re mi
Infamy
This shit ain't PE, It’s physics
Momentum you gotta get it
Wheel of fortune time to spin it
Sand is still spilling
Take a chance express these feeling
Clock is on the wall
Break on through the ceiling
Piercing through the veil
The Divine Virgo Has Ascended

Chorus [Tok Sik]

Just deserted in my thoughts
Wanting it to stop
Year in and year out
We’re staring at the clocks
We’re staring at the clocks
