The Time Lyrics

The Grouch:
Well I don't rhyme over guitars often
But I'm older now maybe I soften
Used to not give a fuck and I still don't
I don't mean sniffin blow or pill poppin
If I said it y'all, it was true
To what i was and knew
I done a lotta dirt, a whole pot a dirt
I even shot a jerk he's through
Wake up, wake up, wake up, its a stick up
Get 'em up, stand up pick it up
Back on the track like a relapse
Me I'm innocent though I'm talkin beats and raps
Not cheap freaks with weaves and crabs
I don't Hollywood shuffle with squares in drag
No need to preach to the mass
But I speak like a pro cause I know what I have now
And all the people say..

Marty J:
Oh ohh, oh ohh
Now that I know, the time
Its different I ain't missin everyday
(And all the people say)
Oh ohh, oh ohh
Stay on my toes, get by
They're listenin if you with me won't you say
The Grouch:
Pump the brakes, fix my mistakes
They get erased like chicks on myspace
Dot com cause I'm on some next shit
Positive energy, there's no deficit
Fresh air, well here's a breath of it
Out west where the rest can have they spit
College boys go on and pack a dip
Me, myself and I goin stack a grip
With Marty J and yeah he's on the back of this
Give us a party player we goin crack the whip
No hiss, in any format ya flip
Not that old four track backpackin jackin
What was underground inventive now
Is just in fashion adjust your passion
The Grouch out the house still slappin
I just know more now, go on boy ask him

Marty J:
Oh ohh, oh ohh
Now that I know, the time
Its different I ain't missin everyday
(And all the people say)
Oh ohh (wave your hands) oh ohh
Stay on my toes, get by
They're listenin if you with me won't you say
Had my back against the wall
My shadow weighed a ton
I never learned to crawl, before I tried to run
Had me on my knees, prayin for the sun
Couldn't see a thing except all the harm that I'd done

The older I get man the dumber that I was (x3)

The Grouch:
I heard don't throw in the towel, believe
In yourself you can achieve
Keep your eye on the prize
And your hands to the skies
And we all gonna rise now

Marty J:
Oh ohh, oh ohh
Now that I know, the time
Its different I ain't missin everyday
(And all the people say)
Oh ohh, oh ohh
Stay on my toes, get by
They're listenin if you with me won't you say

Oh ohh (wave your hands) oh ohh
Now that I know, the time
Its different I ain't missin everyday
(And all the people say)
Oh ohh (wave your hands) oh ohh
Stay on my toes, get by
They're listenin if you with me won't you say
Oh ohh, oh ohh
The older I get man the dumber that I was (x3)
The older I get man the dumber...

Oh ohh (wave your hands) oh ohh

(wave your hands)
