deadlines Lyrics

I got these deadlines

I got these deadlines

Where do I get time

I don't know

High stakes

Everything's so fast paced

Live and die for that finish line

But I'm feeling like I'm in last place

Rat race

Everybody's ahead of me

Can't have breaks,

Steadily go and get degrees

So at twenty-three you'll be fail-safe

Set for life

High salary, nice family

Got some kids, a wife

How can't it be my fantasy, right

Foolproof, it's a safe bet

Time is money you don't waste that

Shit is due soon fuck a rain check

The clock is ticking

I'm trying not to listen

But it's just hard dismissing it

When the competition is so loud

I want it to slow down

But time keeps flying by

I watch my peers

Now they've all got careers

Can we just stop the years

I live in constant fear

I'm too slow, I got a way to go

But I need far more time

Cause, uh

I got these deadlines approaching fast

I gotta get mine before they pass

Running out of time, why don't shit last

Let's slow down please

I got these deadlines they creeping up

I'm feeling stressed life is speeding up

No time for red lights I need to rush

Let's slow down

I'm eating time up

And I'm determined to finish

I'm grabbing seconds for seconds

A minute serving of minutes

I got it lined up

Munch months for lunch

A decadent decade for dinner

In a rush, a crunch

I'm getting, dazed and weak from days and weeks

Regretting, weight from years I can't repeat

I'm letting, everything get to me

Recipe for disaster

Head's been deep in the past, I

Guess i need to go fast huh

The clock is ticking

I'm trying not to listen

But it's just hard dismissing it

When the competition is so loud

I want it to slow down

But time keeps flying by

I watch my peers

Now they've all got careers

Can we just stop the years

I live in constant fear

I'm too slow, I got a way to go

But I need far more time

Cause, uh

I got these deadlines approaching fast

I gotta get mine before they pass

Running out of time, why don't shit last

Let's slow down please

I got these deadlines they creeping up

I'm feeling stressed life is speeding up

No time for red lights I need to rush

Let's slow down

I got these deadlines

I got these deadlines

Where do I get time

I don't know

I got these deadlines approaching fast

I gotta get mine before they pass

Running out of time, why don't shit last

Let's slow down
