Clock Keeps Ticking by Kid Kern Lyrics
[Verse 1: Kid Kern]
You ready?
Adlib (Kid Kern)
Uh, so raise your glasses, despite the lack of love
We made it happen bruh
I want this playing at the parties too
Early flights in the AM it's a starry view
Best friend is always moving states
Used to often now it's rare that we communicate
Sh*t is hard, cut a couple homies off and that sh*t it left me scarred
But I'm working, so every city that we go we get it popping
Get rich or die trying there's no better option
Old girl calling, new girl missing
Want my closest homie back, but our worlds different
Whole family is going through depression
And I've got to save my team because I know that they've been stressing
That's the way it goes, staying close until we're making dough
Looking for an answer and I promise I ain't taking no
[Hook: Kid Kern]
And I've been working for a long time, long time, long time
Talking grind, I've been on mine, on mine, on mine
Been through a lot of misery so I'm often stressing, please God be with me
See I've got to get it, when I'm stopping, never
But that Clock Keeps Ticking
[Verse 2: Kid Kern]
Uh, my bro called me, said my last sh*t wack I'm going harder now
Always rode the bench but best believe that I'm a starter now
Matter of fact I'm f*cking Jordan to these h*es, drinking 40s with my bros
Here's the story I ain't told
This the come up, right now I'm addressing sh*t I've never said
I done played played shows for two people, lost hella bread
Manager is always fronting me this cash
Buy more tickets than we sell, and that's why I never brag
I'm just waiting, on the day we're on and overpaid
All these other up and comers way too shy to go on stage
Yet they try to knock my hustle it's a God d*mn shame
Dawg, if you ain't spreading love you'll end up nowhere in this game, and I'm ashamed
To keep it one-hundred I've been an *sshole, deleting people's numbers yet I save them in my trap phone
I lost me and threw shade at all my friends
Just because a girl broke my heart I took my anger out them
Listen, I've got some issues I've been working on
Just pray to God that you hear this song
I'd apologize in person, but
You'll find more meaning in these verses cous
And I ain't looking for no sympathy
Just kind of wish I did it differently
But all that matters is that God keeps listening
Forever working harder because that Clock Keeps Ticking
I'm ghost
[Hook: Kid Kern & Kelsey Wynn]
And I've been working for a long time, long time, long time
Talking grind, I've been on mine, on mine, on mine
Been through a lot of misery so I'm often stressing, please God be with me
See I've got to get it, when I'm stopping, never
But that Clock Keeps Ticking
