lyrics

Back when entertaining was shared at the same time

We all listened to the same tune, same rhymes

Same drop of a dime, we shared memories

On sight was precious, nowadays it seems kinda hectic

I guess Over the past 100 yrs we get a shift on this planet

When new times come the old vanish

granny used to feed the whole crib man we never went Famished

Go pick out a switch if you was mannish

From TV Guides to Yellow Pages, I seen Hella phases

Today’s life insurance is phone cases

Shorties in pampers working an iPad the basics

And everybody wanna shot in the face for a facelift

If you could mix it it would seem so odd

picture an IG model in Phylicia Rashad

Just imagine Cardi B “Jet Beauty of the Week”

Respectfully, I bet the time is changing as we speak (Come on..)

Where did the time go? I gotta keep up I’m stuck in time zone

Where did the time go? It’s like the whole World stuck in these iPhones

Maaan what happened to the time? It’s like I’m growing each & every line

Where did the time go? You gotta live to get old.. time goes

➖➖➖➖➖➖

My aunt T used to slam on the Burn outs w/ old bricks phones

Where you from, get a code—you can go pick zones

7-7-3, the organic times was heavenly

It’s like the whole world forgetting its pedigree

We went from boom boxes dancing to hip hop,

To who got they Aux dancing for Tik Tok

My granny used to makes us go back & fight more

Like if you lose don’t come back through my doors

I’m just reflecting on the basics of life

Dinner table w/ the fam we all take a device

Where’s the television sitcoms w/ morals at the ending

Now it’s scripted realities for Attention

Pardon Philly as I age myself

I’m stuck in my ways amazed by the phase myself

Listen, I ain’t ashamed to notice the shift & grow

You gotta live to get old

➖➖➖➖➖➖

Where did the time go? I gotta keep up I’m stuck in time zone

Where did the time go? It’s like the whole World stuck in these iPhones

Maaan what happened to the time? It’s like I’m growing each & every line

Where did the time go? You gotta live to get old.. time goes
