Andy Mineo 1988 Remake 2_nottz_42north Lyrics
Time, you just keep going
And one day you’re going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you’re going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, time, time, where you going? Come back
Every coin got two sides, every sword got two edges
Life begins as one ends, how will I be remembered? Mortal men
There’s something ’bout 30 make ya contemplate the journey
Ya heard me? (Uh)
I told my momma, “Can’t believe I’m gettin’ older, wish that I could stop it” (Huh)
She like, “What’s ya other option?
You either in the grave or you get another year
So blow these candles out, we just happy that you here”
I found a picture of me back in college
My skin was a little tighter, body was more brolic
My baby face got a new wrinkle up on it by my eyelid
Told myself it must of been from all this smiling
Life, no one survives it
As much as we want to control it, it just throw surprises
When I was younger all I heard was, “You got potential”
But I don’t hear that no more, I hear, “The rent due” (Uh)
And every birthday is bittersweet, it mean our time is shorter
Before I see the Lord, I want to get some things in order
29, this the victory lap
My fellows gather ’round, we just opened my gold plaque
Thought I’d feel more excited, but really I’m kinda sad
Can I do it again or are my greatest days in my past?
Time, you just keep going
And one day you’re going on without me
Time, come back, ayy, YERR
I don’t want to do this when I’m 48
Well, I could, but, look, I ain’t cool as Jay
And I ain’t cool as Ye
I’m kinda cool with grey
So when the salt and pepper look come, I’m ready for that day
I don’t want to stretch before I play ball or go bald
Or lose strength today worrying ’bout tomorrow
I had this moment, I was walking through the park
Saw a boy playing catch, a woman walking her dog
I thought, in a hundred years none of us’ll be here
Replaced by new people that probably never cared you existed
Just living they life, minding they business
No matter how famous you get, they still forget ya
Remember the time the Beatles said that they more famous than Jesus?
I still think it’s funny
Some people didn’t know who Paul McCartney was ’til he made a song with Yeezus, but
Millions still gather on Sunday
Preach
Life is less of a line, more like a circle
We can’t wait to grow up, and pray for the reversal
Or pay for the reversal
Along the way I learn to enjoy it while you have it and forgive whoever hurt you ’cause
In the end if you don’t get healed, you get revenge
And even though it feels sweet, you never really win
It’s hard to sleep, lay in bed and have peace when
You became the very thing you hated just to get even (Uh)
So tell me what you believe in
It’s nothing that you say it’s what you’re doing everyday
29 years of life, look what I became (Momma)
‘Cause I’m a little less eager to prove something, more confident in who I am
It doesn’t make for good TV, but make me a better man
Time, you just keep going
And one day you’re going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you’re going on without me
Time, you just keep going
And one day you are going on without me
Time, time, time, come back
Happy birthday, dear Andy
Happy birthday to you
Ayy!
Alright, okay, alright, here we go, alright
Make it a good one!
Yay
I had to think about it
I’m in here
