Time
Mary J. Blige
Chorus:
If I had my way
Life would be just fine
But the world is too much
An' it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel like leavin'
But I must be wise
Because time is not on our side
(On our side)
Because time is not on our side
(On our side)
Verse 1:
The end is coming
Stop your running
I'm tellin' you this is the truth
You can talk about
What you read about
Everything is on the news
People nowadays so shady
Now what is wrong with them
Something cast a spell upon their minds
And they always wanna condemn
Chorus
Verse 2:
While you're judging me
You should look around
An' you'll see how people going down
Some of them are killed over a dime
Now tell me, do we really have time?
To continue with this madness
'Cause I'm sick and tired of this
Tryin' to crush my world with jealousy
And I'm about to catch a fit
Chorus
Verse 3:
You're deceiving
What's the meaning?
Of you retrieving
The enemy's greeting
We all are leaving someday but
We don't know how we are going
Please believe me when I tell you
That time is not really on our side
Chorus (3 times)
