In the life of a rose
I've lived and died 100 times
You've watched me open, bloom, wilt, rot
And start over (start over)
You watch me again, and again, and again, and again
And each time
My time, measured in light, final breaths, finding, losing
Time, giving so much
And then taking everything away
And I wonder this time, next year
What will it look like?
With my guesses so often, so wrong
I wonder what beginning, what end waits for me
Will I have accepted the things that I cannot change?
And will I have changed the things I cannot accept?
This time, next time, about time

Natural
I haven't felt this type of thing in a while
I thought I lost myself in love until I found you
I can't predict my fate
But I can't be his no more
Ooh, two years enough, few days
But my week with you means more, oooh
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I haven't felt these butterflies since I, I don't even know
Nobody really knows my name because all you call me is beautiful
I can't predict my fate
But I can't be his no more
Ooh, two years enough, few days
But my week with you means more, ooh
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I thought I lost myself in love until I found you
I can't predict my fate
But I can't be his no more
Ooh, two years enough, few days
But my week with you means more, oooh
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I haven't felt these butterflies since I, I don't even know
Nobody really knows my name because all you call me is beautiful
I can't predict my fate
But I can't be his no more
Ooh, two years enough, few days
But my week with you means more, ooh
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural
I'm quickly fallin'
And it feels natural

Everlasting Love
You became mine
In the strangest time
On my life
'Cause baby I
I wasn't right
I was losing the fight
And my mind
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
I, I'll do what I say
No matter what demons I face
I won't listen ah-ah-ah-ah
'Cause you, you keep me sane
Out of this lonely frame of a mind
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
I hope it don't take us too long now
But I'd try for a thousand years if that's what it takes to get somewhere on
I hope it don't take us us to long now
But I'd risk forever to make it right
And to fill our desires to hold on
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
In the strangest time
On my life
'Cause baby I
I wasn't right
I was losing the fight
And my mind
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
I, I'll do what I say
No matter what demons I face
I won't listen ah-ah-ah-ah
'Cause you, you keep me sane
Out of this lonely frame of a mind
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
I hope it don't take us too long now
But I'd try for a thousand years if that's what it takes to get somewhere on
I hope it don't take us us to long now
But I'd risk forever to make it right
And to fill our desires to hold on
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love
When I stand in the way of what we could become
Know that there's still way to everlasting love

Unravel Me
Something in the sun or the air
Is making me want to run away from here
I know that you want me to stay with you
But no
So I'll keep on making excuses about the sun, the earth, the rays
Our days are numbered, wired, and I'm tired of it
I know you're trying but you'll never unravel me
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
It's something about the season that we're in
That's making me think that we're not supposed to do this
I know that you're trying to understand but you can't
'Cause I keep on making excuses about the fall, the rise
And how my mind is ruptured, wired, and I'm tired of it
I know you're trying but you'll never unravel me
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Is making me want to run away from here
I know that you want me to stay with you
But no
So I'll keep on making excuses about the sun, the earth, the rays
Our days are numbered, wired, and I'm tired of it
I know you're trying but you'll never unravel me
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
It's something about the season that we're in
That's making me think that we're not supposed to do this
I know that you're trying to understand but you can't
'Cause I keep on making excuses about the fall, the rise
And how my mind is ruptured, wired, and I'm tired of it
I know you're trying but you'll never unravel me
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel
Unravel me, unravel

Stand Still
In the life of a rose
I've lived and died 100 times
You've watched me open, bloom, wilt, rot
And start over (Start over)
You watch me again, and again, and again, and again
And each time
My time, measured in light, final breaths, finding, losing
Time, giving so much
And then taking everything away
And I wonder this time, next year
What will it look like?
With my guesses so often, so wrong
I wonder what beginning, what end waits for me
Will I have accepted the things that I cannot change?
And will I have changed the things I cannot accept?
This time, next time, about time
I've lived and died 100 times
You've watched me open, bloom, wilt, rot
And start over (Start over)
You watch me again, and again, and again, and again
And each time
My time, measured in light, final breaths, finding, losing
Time, giving so much
And then taking everything away
And I wonder this time, next year
What will it look like?
With my guesses so often, so wrong
I wonder what beginning, what end waits for me
Will I have accepted the things that I cannot change?

Wanna Know
I wanna know if you care for me
If you feel my touch as heavenly
I wanna know if you feel this too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million miles between you and I
I wanna know if you feel it too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
I wanna know, when you look at me
Do the voice of angels start to sing?
I wanna know if you hear them too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million nights of loveless quiet
I need to know if you hear this too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million times I'll keep on trying
I'm gonna know if you love me too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
If you feel my touch as heavenly
I wanna know if you feel this too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million miles between you and I
I wanna know if you feel it too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
I wanna know, when you look at me
Do the voice of angels start to sing?
I wanna know if you hear them too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million nights of loveless quiet
I need to know if you hear this too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you
A million times I'll keep on trying
I'm gonna know if you love me too
If you don't, I can't be in love with you

Frozen
If we could live in this moment
And just hold it
Keep my head on your chest
I'll never leave this bed
The flowers will be blooming
The leaves will be turning
And snow will be falling
While we're making love
And the sun will be shining
The flowers still are blooming
Then leaves will turn again
But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us
Uncover the window
And come uncover me
Let's forget the world even exists
'Cause nothing compares to this
The flowers will be blooming
The leaves will be turning
And snow will be falling
While we're making love
And the sun will be shining
The flowers still are blooming
Then leaves will turn again
But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us
Oh, the flowers will be blooming
The leaves will be turning
And snow will be falling
While we're making love
And the sun will be shining
The flowers still are blooming
Then leaves will turn again
But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us
And just hold it
Keep my head on your chest
I'll never leave this bed
The flowers will be blooming
The leaves will be turning
And snow will be falling
While we're making love
And the sun will be shining
The flowers still are blooming
Then leaves will turn again
But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us
Uncover the window
And come uncover me
Let's forget the world even exists
'Cause nothing compares to this
The flowers will be blooming

But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Time will be frozen for us
Oh, the flowers will be blooming
The leaves will be turning
And snow will be falling
While we're making love
And the sun will be shining
The flowers still are blooming
Then leaves will turn again
But time will be frozen for us (ah-ah, ah-ah)

Time will be frozen for us

We Have Time
Our light is shining
So bright that even the sun is
Desperately making time for you
Making time for me
Making time for us
To be even more in love than we are
Than we are
Than we are
Than we are
We got time to grow (Grow)
To think (Think)
To breathe
The air we need
Let the daylight sink (Sink)
So you and me
Can fall asleep
Let's put our trust in
Something that's bigger than us
And will inevitably
Make sometime for you
Make sometime for me
Make sometime for us
To fall even deeper than we are
Than we are
Than we are
Than we are
We got time to grow (Grow)
To think (Think)
To breathe
The air we need
Let the daylight sink (Sink)
So you and me
Can fall asleep
So bright that even the sun is
Desperately making time for you
Making time for me
Making time for us
To be even more in love than we are
Than we are
Than we are
Than we are
We got time to grow (Grow)
To think (Think)
To breathe
The air we need
Let the daylight sink (Sink)
So you and me
Can fall asleep
Let's put our trust in
Something that's bigger than us
And will inevitably
Make sometime for you
Make sometime for me
Make sometime for us
To fall even deeper than we are
Than we are
Than we are
Than we are
We got time to grow (Grow)
To think (Think)
To breathe
The air we need
Let the daylight sink (Sink)
So you and me
Can fall asleep

Used To
Last night I was thinking
About the time when I was weakened
When I let you take advantage
Those were the times
Those were the times
Ah, ah
Ah
Ah
Ah, ah
Ah
This morning I was remembering
About the times when I became more stubborn
And when I decided that I was stronger
Than how you made me feel
Those times are real
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better
Ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better
About the time when I was weakened
When I let you take advantage
Those were the times
Those were the times
Ah, ah
Ah
Ah
Ah, ah
Ah
This morning I was remembering
About the times when I became more stubborn
And when I decided that I was stronger
Than how you made me feel
Those times are real
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better
Ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better
I used to lose myself so I could find you quicker
I used to lose myself so I could love you better

Wait
[Sabrina Claudio:]
I'm trying, give me a second
I wanna take the time to do what's right
'Cause I can't rush decisions, give me a second
All of your pressure brings
Making me questions things, "Do I want ya?" "Do I need ya?"
I know what you're trying to hear
And I wanna say it to you but you need to
Wait, mmm, wait
I'm not ignoring your feelings
But right now it's just hard to put yours in front of mine
'Cause I've got my own reasons, give them a second
All of your pressure brings
Making me questions things, "Do I want ya?" "Do I need you?"
I know what you're trying to hear
And I wanna say it to you but you need to
Wait, mmm, wait
[Man:]
Stop go
[Sabrina Claudio:]
Wait, mmm, wait

[Man:]
Stop
I'm trying, give me a second
I wanna take the time to do what's right

I know what you're trying to hear
And I wanna say it to you but you need to

About Time is the debut mixtape by American singer and songwriter Sabrina Claudio. It was released on October 5, 2017, by SC Entertainment. The follow-up to her successful debut extended play, Confidently Lost, it explores similar genres to its predecessor, namely alternative R&B, indie pop, and neo soul.
The mixtape album, which also blends elements from electronic, jazz, and Latin music, was supported by two singles: "Unravel Me" and "Belong to You". The latter saw re-release in the form of a remix with American singer 6lack, which was included as a bonus track on the project. "Unravel Me" eventually peaked at number twenty-two on the Billboard Twitter Emerging Artists chart, while the original version of "Belong to You" peaked at number two on the same chart.
About Time received critical acclaim from critics, who specifically directed praise at Claudio's songwriting abilities, and the mixtape's lyrical themes, which largely related to escapism, liberation, loneliness, and romance. Critical reception was also positive for the project's production, which consisted of an overall experimental, minimalist sound crafted from a variety of producers, including Stint, Alex Tanas, and Derek Renfroe, among others.
