TickTockHear that clockSeconds fade into minutesMinutes crash head-on with hoursHours collide and slide right on into daysTimeIt never waitsSo grab life by the pendulumSwingSwing with all you gotTickTockSmash that clock!Take every momentOwn it!Only one person can make your decisionsAnd that person is staring back at youReflections are determinedBy the viewDon't let anyone steal your shineThe memories wasted on hateAre memories better spent on fulfillmentNo greater revenge than successClimb on top of that ivory towerProclaim to the world"This is my time!"Time waits for no oneTickTockHear that clockWake upPut societies expectations to restShow this nationThat dreams can be achievedNo matter where you are conceivedSee, time doesn't look at the color of skinIt doesn't care how much money you have in the bankCan't throw dollar bills at it to make it freezeAnd you sure can't take possessions with you when you leaveHustle hardBut don't break your bonesFor shiny cars or a new iPhoneLast I heard, Heaven doesn't get ringtonesHustle hardCollecting the things that countLove isn't measured in currencyUnplug and reconnect with those who matter mostWhat a tragedyFaces glued to digital screensBy the time we look upOur children are teensCopying our behaviorThe cycle is never endingGeneration after generationNodding their headsBut not really listeningWhen will they listen?Is it any wonder homes are broken?Hands full but hearts emptyEverybody busyThinking they have all a guaranteed tomorrowYet guarantees don't come easilyWith lifeThere are no receiptsTickTockTime keeps moving onHear that clock?
