Badu Erykah - Times A Wastin Lyrics

Yeah
Time's a wastin'
Don't you take your time young man
Keep on driftin'
Ain't no tellin' where you'll land

Run baby, run, run
Where you runnin' to?
And who you runnin' from?
Some people may not understand
What it means to be a man
Takin' full command

'Cause we're
Livin' in a world that's oh so strange
Boy don't let your focus change
Takin' out the demons in your range, hey
Livin' in a world that's oh so fast
Gotta make your money last
Learn from your past, oh

Time's a wastin'
Don't you take your time young man
Keep on driftin'
Ain't no tellin' where you'll land

Sweet love and sunshine
If it's all in the air
Then it's all on your mind
Uh, breathe baby
Come back to the world
Dig up all your pearls
Teach the boys and girls, hey

We're livin' in a world that's oh so strange
Boy don't let your focus change
Takin' out the demons in your range, hey
Livin' in a world that's oh so fast

Gotta make your money last
Learn from your past, ay
Oh (hum hum), baby (hum hum hum), we (hum hum hum), need to smile (hum hum)

'Cause time's a wastin'
Don't you take your time young man
Keep on driftin'
Ain't no tellin' where you'll land

Oh baby we need to smile
Oh (oh oh) baby we need to smile
Oh ooh oh, oh oh oh ooh

Oh, ooh ooh, oh, oh
Oh, time's a wastin' (ooh, oh, oh)
Don't you take your time young man (ay yeah ay)
Keep on driftin'
Ain't no tellin' where you'll land
